A card for today's Free For All challenge to use a bit of gold and inspired by a Frost poem. I used two coats of gold embossing ink and powder to glaze the leaf and sentiment die-cuts (3 coats on one or two leaves which seemed to need it) and then popped them up on an embossed lattice bg. If you're trying this with small die-cuts such as these leaves, I suggest using a pair of tweezers - emboss on one end first then, then do the other end. Also, do any curling or bending of the die-cuts before embossing, otherwise the finished product will crack.

WOW is the first thing that came to mind when I saw your card! Love the dimension of the leaves which you managed to keep after embossing in gold! This is gorgeous!
