Come play along with the {TLC today} and show off your copper!
I used the Wrinkle Free Distress technique to make my watercolor background with Distress Inks, then stamped my sentiment using my MINI MISTI with VersaFine Onyx Black ink. I cut a frame, and then added the Mulberry Flower. The copper background was done following the Heated Copper Accents Tutorial, and using the variation given for running it through a die cut machine. I didn't even notice I used the same EF until I was done.
I would have likes more variation in the colors, but I don't have a blow torch! I'm not sure a heat gun is hot enough. I did get some blues on the left and reds on the right! Thanks for looking!

What a fabulous layout, design and sentiment, Judy.
Hmm, I DO have a blow torch but whether I can find the small remaining scrap of copper is open to debate! I'll take a look.
