We have three weddings coming up this fall so I'm making cards using each couple's wedding colors. This one is Black, White & Red. The background is a metal sheet put through the BigShot with the Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder. Then I sponged it with Metallic Gold acrylic paint and lightly sanded the raised portions. I adhered the finished metal piece on the card using Sticky Strip. Hint when using metal sheets: cut the metal to the size you want BEFORE running it through the BigShot so you don't squish the embossing. The bells are stamped with Versamark and embossed with Creations Unlimited Gold Ice embossing powder. You can find metal sheets in many colors at Monica Weaver's Add A Little Dazzle Metal Store.
The bottom picture shows the inside of the card. The sentiment is embossed with Gold Ice EP.
