Theres magic in the air and bizzy becs

The
challenge
at
'Theres magic in the air'
this week is to make a gate fold card
using the lovely beached boat image provided...thank you nina.
I used the image to trace onto a bit of
recycled food container.... the image
should be facing the other way but i'm
a techno idiot and dont know how to 'flip' it.
I engraved the image then mounted it onto cork before mounting it onto my distressed base.
I added a sentiment coloured with the same ink as the metal etching.
Thank you for taking time to look.
love lynx
I have also entered this card in bizzy becs 1st challenge thats to make something for 'dad', and the design must include brown and metal. lynx
