I had fun with this one. First for the background I embossed a gold piece of paper with one of my new best friends... a Cuttlebug folder, Then for the frame I embossed a green piece of paper. (Cuttlebug) Then I cut the frame out using one of my other new best friends...my Spellbinder.
I used my gold leafing pen to line the edges. (outer and inner edges) Then with your fingers, (don't be a baby.... it washes off easily.LOL) rub the gold line before the gold leafing is completely dried. Play with the gold until you have the desired effect. You can lightly touch your fingers with the leafing pen if you need more gold. Rub-Rub-Rub! Have fun!

Oh yes, the stamped area was another little happy mistake. I messed up on the embossing when I forgot to use my embossing buddy. However, don't you think it fit in nicely on this card?
The card below was all done using my new toys (cuttlebug & Spellbinder) liquid pearls and a couple of embellishments. It was so fast and easy.
Another lovey dovey one. Couple Stamp is Inkadinkado
I normally would have chucked this next card in the garbage. I think it turned out way too busy. What do you think?

Those cards are freaking works of art.
