Hi! This card was made for today's Technique Lovers Challenge: Metal Stamping. We were to cut up a drink can, stamp on it, and use it on a card....Say WHAT??? LOL!
So, I drank a Diet Coke. I rinsed out the can, and cut off the top and bottom. I realized that cans are pretty flimsy! So, I cut some Sizzix leaves and used my Copic Airbrush to color them.(YG03, YR24,E39) Then, I was out of metal. I drank another Diet Coke, and cut it apart! Then, I stamped the image on the metal with VersaMark and embossed in Copper. Why emboss? The Staz On sprays off with the Copic Airbrush, embossing shows up and stays there! I sprayed the cut out flower with BG13, BG72, B24. (I used E39 for the dotted look.) Stamped 2 images so and cut out the center of one and popped it. I had to drink another Diet Coke to cut out the Sizzix Swirls. I used E39 in the airbrush to color them.
I sprayed the circle and punched lace with YR00, YR24 and E39.

That is like a beautiful piece of jewelry you created! I think you should take it off your card and put it on your purse, or wear it to a fancy par-tay! Fabulous coloring, too!
