I used an embossing folder borrowed from my friend Christine (calex), and embossed script onto white card stock. I then used a sponge to lightly sponged over the top, highlighting the raised design with inka gold wax. I then spray red over top (inka gold is a resist).
The ornament is smooshed with diluted inka gold, and more inka gold was sponged on card stock and then used to die-cut the intricate top layer of the ornament. Inka Gold was also sponged onto the tips of the holly leaves. Lots of gold on this card.

The Inka Gold looks fabulous on this, Loll and makes that ornament look so elegant! Love the highlighting you did on the embossed background. I need to bring mine out more often!
