Now here is a card I have completely failed to photograph correctly.\u00a0 I wanted to create some boy-themed medallions for a couple of projects – this and the one in the next post.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I tried several types of paper, and\u00a0 three different embossing powders.\u00a0 The best fit was black card, stamped with Versamark and embossed in gold. Then I fussy cut the medallions and covered it completely in clear embossing poweder, and when that was dry, did it again.\u00a0 The medallions have quite a nice sheen and some solidity to them.\u00a0 The background card here looks blue, but it is actually a different black. The sentiment is Papermania.The stamps are Autumn Leaves Talking in Circles (boy) which is really a scrapbooking stamp that I’ve never really used.<\/p>\n

I’m entering this one into:<\/p>\n

CAS Mixup for June<\/a> – layered embossing powders, stamping and (my choice) fussy cutting \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n

It’s based on Narelle’s sketch at Freshly Made Sketches #341<\/a> this week<\/p>\n
