For the CC728 - Black, Gold and Green. I used alcohol inks on Yupo paper, added blending solution and used a paper straw to blow the ink around until I liked how it looked. I waited for the ink to get sticky as it was drying to lay the gold foil on top of the paper and used a brayer to adhere the foil. For me, the dessert option of "out of the box" was to add the metallic gold leaf die cuts to the frame as embellishments. A bit out of the box for a CAS kind of stamper!

You should do out-of-the box more often! This card is stunning! I love the effect you achieved with the alcohol inks. The gold leaves are a perfect finishing touch!
