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
