MIX challenge today was to emboss and color a metal element. I glued foil to cardstock, embossed it, added some cranberry alcohol ink, then cleaned off the raised areas with alcohol so the red is in the low-laying areas.
On the left edge, I added some metallic adhesive flowers. (The packaged calls it metallic framing tape).
This is also for the Queen for the Day Challenge honoring Sharon Madson. I was inspired by this card of hers: MAR13VSNO Cracked Get Well sm by smadson at Splitcoaststampers

That metal looks amazing embossed with those flowers and the ribbon sets it off perfectly! Lovely!
