This is pencil over ink--Craft White on black velveteen paper, colored with SU! metallic pencils. I wrapped the edges of the velveteen paper around a square of matboard and backed it with another square of matboard before I mounted it on the card. The purple background is polished stone. The background border is gold embossed. I don't know if you can really see it, but there is a nice metallic sheen on the main image. The angle of the photo was the best I could do to show the dimension, the texture of the velveteen paper and avoid glare on the polished stone all at the same time.

Oh, this is nice! I have some velvet paper, so I'll have to try this.

Absolutely "stunning, beautiful, exquisite...." :shock: I'm in awe of your lovely card, so off to my favs for me to try later on! Thanks for the amazing share! Is the gold embossed edge done onto the purple "polished" stone or is it too embossed on velvet, thus the reason for the ribbon to cover the edges that meet? Incredible card!!!!
