Tom's 21st Birthday

What to make for my sons 21st Birthday? Well it just had to be Sir Tim.! I had a lovel pad of 12x12 papers which were ideal.

I took a whole sheet which I trimmed down to make the card. Then cut out some embellishments from other sheets within the stack. The whole lot was distressed with rust and mahogany distress inkpads. The letters are assorted metal from my stash and are distressed using alcohol inks, unfortunately my copper had gone a bit lumpy and althought I mixed it for eternity it still had a few lumps in it which in this case really didnt matter because it added to the distressed look I was after.  The 21 is stamped using numbers from Ink & the dog range by paper Artsy stamps and embossed in detail gold.

The hands on the clock are Tim Holtz spinners and the key and key hole are brads that I cut off the legs and glued with pinflair.
