Here is a card that I made for a young man's 22nd birthday. I used a brass template and Dreamweaver's silver embossing paste on the blue panel. When dry it was mounted onto silver foil paper.
Here's how to make the top "braided" piece: glue silver paper to blue paper and brayer to adhere. When dry, position brass Cut & Fold template by American Traditional and tape down. Cut with craft knife along upper edges of template lines, moving template up and repeating until desired length is achieved. Remove template, score along bottom of cuts and fold back, tucking under the one above. Trim to fit panel. Glue top & bottom ends of braid down and then glue to yellow panel.
