Default Polished stone PLUS additional embossing...samples?

By now you may have noticed I'm always looking for new techniques or a twist on a technique. This weekend I was working with Polished Stone and noticed that if using SU! classic reinkers and the gold metallic for the polished stone - that (of course) the gold dries considerably slower. And since you can emboss with that gold stuff I tried embossing over it.

And there are probably a dozen samples of the technique here on SCS and I just haven't seem 'em. Would you mind dropping a card link or two in this thread?

Here's my first attempt - put it on your list as something to try.

I was in a swap awhile back where Polished Stone and Marbelizing were the theme. Here is the page of cards from that swap:

I have been a fan of your website for a long time. Awesome!!! And this link has many beautiful examples of polished stone. (Couldn't tell if there was additional embossing which changes the texture, but could be.)

Must admit I like your background photo the best - beautiful. Like Lapis Lazuli.

Thanks Nina! Okay, I see what you're looking for. I can offer up one sample that came to mind. It's a bit more what you're talking about. I embossed the whole polished stone area on this one (the center piece is the ps part):
