IC311 Metallic Medallion

Photo Details

Poster: peeps321

Our inspiration for today, Singing Cat Studio, really had some gorgeous metallic jewelry designs. I was attracted to the richness in texture and color of this pendant http://www.etsy.com/listing/77239204...al-bronze-gold . I must have stamped my medallion about 4 times trying different embossing powders. I wanted it to look metallic but I also wanted the detail of the design to come through. I ended up using gold detail and then I embossed copper tinsel around the edges of the frame. I used my Versamarker to just get the very edge of the nestie.
