I recently learned a new technique of heating thin copper to change its colour and stamping on it, then dry embossing the lines of the stamp. I'm not very good at masculine cards but thought this was probably acceptable for my father for Father's Day.

This is amazing! I am wanting ideas for a metal-themed card for my BIL (who's birthday is in September) and this is perfect. I even have the copper!!! How did you heat the copper? I have tried previous times with my embossing gun but it seemed to take forever, and I was concerned my gun wouldn't be happy so I always stopped before I got good colours.
