I saw a card by Melissa Mills Johnson and was inspired to make a version of my own. I heat embossed using Silver Tinsel powder and love the way it came out! The flower petals were colored for a tone on tone effect using the Warm Grey WB7 ShinHan Marker. I layered with Silver Glitter paper die cut with the Stitched Rectangle Thin Cuts.
It's a very simple technique and I really think you should give it a try! In fact........(scroll down)
