While I had a great time making this card, it was a real witch photographing it. After umpteen tries, I just went with what it was! I used coastal cabana for my base color cardstock and embossed it. Then I swiped copper metallic ink across it. I added some other metallics by rubbing it on with my fingers. All of this was cut apart and fitted onto a base of copper metallic cardstock.

Now this is cool. Simple yet effective. I really like that embossing folder. And, smart thinking to use copper paper. Now, why didn't I think of that?!
