I love playing with mixed media and embossed images. This strip was in an embossing folder I got out and ran with just this piece. First I sprayed green shimmer spray on my mat and smooched, then I sprayed spray oxide in a green and mopped that up. Last was to swipe a dark green ink pad over the top to add contrast. Once dry I attached and trimmed the piece on white layering cs. Added sticker paper strips in gold and Silhouette cut greenery in gold and white. Last thing was to stamp sentiment in black ink.
Thanks for sharing your time with me, now I am sharing this with:
Stunning!

Thanks Gayle, I tried something new for the gold. I stuck the sticker paper to white cs then cut with my Silhouette. Works very well, especially for background elements.
