Playing with new techniques

I finally got time to make a couple of cards today now that the kids are back in school. I tried the faux tearing technique from splitcoaststampers.com and it was alot of fun!

Then I used the "marble rolling technique" to make this card, I actually got the entire card idea off of splitcoaststampers.com. I loved this card from the gallery and since I needed to make a card for my dads 80th birthday, this card just seemed to fit the bill! Thank you for whoever made it and I hope you aren't upset that I snagged the idea!
