Congratulations Anne for being crowned the Queen. I'm beginning to catch up on my challenges, just been trying to finish quilt projects.
I chose this lovely gold embossed butterfly card as my inspiration: What a Winner! QFTD06 by Anne Ryan at Splitcoaststampers
I've been wanting to try Fashion Flakes Metallic Leafing technique so I tried it on the butterfly & sentiment. I used the MS glue pad & stamped the butterfly on SU basic black cs, then used the Fashion Flakes, I pat the flakes with a soft brush then rubbed off the access with a cloth. I then used the heat gun just to set it. I then cut out the butterfly. I did the same thing with the sentiment. I added 3 rust rhinestones to the bottom. I layered the 2nd panel with rust cs. The base of the card is SU basic black cs & well as the 2nd panel. The panel is raised with 3D squares

Whoa, _onnie, is this ever fabulous! I had gold and multicolored flakes for years and have never known what to do with them. Your card is magnificent. Beautifully cased and so expertly crafted. You need to upload your quilts. I can only imagine how beautiful they must be. Thank you so much for taking time away from family and quilting to craft a card for this challenge. Hugs
