Heat embossing fun

 Hey everyone! Today I have three cards made with silver metallic card stock.
I have used the heat embossing technique to embellish these cards.
As this cardstock has a smooth and shiny surface, Brilliance Archival inks are perfect to use on it.

On the first card the peacock feather (Stampendous woodblock) is embossed in white and gold and the sentiment stamped in Brilliance 'Graphite black' Archival ink. The sentiment is also from Stampendous.



For the second card, I have used a woodblock stamp from Hampton Art...Janetdunndesign and the sentiment from Stampendous. Both have been heat embossed with American Crafts embossing powders.



For this card, I decided to stamp the image ( from Inkadinkado) with 'Graphite Black ' Archival ink from Brilliance and heat emboss just the sentiment and the centres of the flowers with gold embossing powder. I just love the final look!


I am submitting these cards for the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge...Emboss it.



Thanks so much for stopping by...
Have a great day!
