Copper Leaves

Photo Details

Poster: Loll Thompson

Tried a new technique today using copper sheets. Cut out the copper using my BigShot and Little Leaves die-cut (Sizzix) ... and medium oval punch too. Used a butane torch to heat the metal until it turns beautiful colors ... just LOVE IT!

I have a friend that took a class using the copper sheets. What a great card especially for the masculine.

Great idea. I agree that this would be a wonderful technique for a masculine card.
