French-Inspired Card

I found some old French Francs when cleaning yesterday and thought they might look cool on a card. The red cardstock was stamped with an ornamental pattern in black ink. I misted the stamped cardstock to soften the lines. The text is printed from an old French letter that I dyed with walnut ink. I stampted the fleur-de-lis onto white cardstock, cut it out, and used a gold-leaf pen on the edges.
