Fun with Gold Embossing

 

 

Wet embossing is so pretty and elegant.  Here I just used gold wet embossing and dry embossing with a Cuddlebug folder to complete this card.  The decorative stamp was from CTMH (Dreams Come True) stamp set.  The butterfly was from Hero Arts and it was also embossed in gold.  A gate fold card seemed to add to the overall look of the card.  Some ribbon to tie it closed and it is ready for delivery.

Thank you for stopping by to visit, smiles, Joanie

Very elegant. I like how the ribbon keeps the gate fold card closed. Well done! :-) -B

Thank you for your comment. Always appreciate your feed back. Wet embossing is when you use versaMark or pigmented ink on an image. Then you sprinkle embossing powder over it and heat with heat tool. The heat sets the image and it is raised when finished. You need to use those inks because they dry slowly giving you great coverage and a crisp clean image.
Hope that helps. Thanks
