It's the 3rd Thursday so that means it's time for another Divine Divas Inspiration Challenge! Wrappables. It made me think of 24k chocolate, if there is such a thing.
So this is what I came up with. It's about as 24k as I could get, lol. Everything is detail gold embossed. And the c/s is a chocolate bronze metallic, burnished gold metallic and a textured tan.
The two sizes of skeleton leaves (HA) were stamped on the metallic bronze c/s w/ gold pigment ink and embossed w/ detail gold powder. The sentiment (SG) was done the same way. The center band was stamped w/ a crackle image (Magenta) and also gold embossed.
The center gold square was cut w/ a square Spellbinders Nestie. I edge the bronze panels w/ a gold leafing pen. One leaf was cut out and added and gold mini brads were attached.
Thanks so much for looking! My blog:The Write Stuff. Sorry! I had to delete a bunch of really old posts from my blog & this is one of them

Okay, Julie, I know you're probably tired of me starting my comments as OMG, Julie . . . But, you leave me no choice with your brilliant creations. The golds, browns and leaves on this card are totally AWESOME!!! I saw the new inspiration piece and am hoping I can get to this one. I wasn't able to do the last one due to illness. I don't think I could even come close after seeing yours, but I'll muddle along somehow!! Gorgeous work Julie! TFS!

Oh, for gorgeous! As a total magpie, I'm loving your metallic shimmer stock and all this embossing. So very elegant and luscious, Julie. 24 carat without question! Am saving this to my hard drive as it is just begging to be CASED! Right into my faves, too!
