This week Lydia has a great Mixability challenge to use gold or silver metallic medium plus one or more additional mediums.
I had some fun using my new alcohol inks and gold mixative to create this background panel. After it dried, I added gold embossing powder around the edges and finished it off with a sentiment and some gold cord.

This really looks amazing! So amazing in fact that it jumps right out of the gallery! I love how our alcohol ink panel turned out. Adding the gold embossing around the edges is such a great touch and really complements the gold embossed sentiment and the wonderful good thread. ~Karen.

What a fabulous background you created...mine never look so wonderfully swirled. Embossing the edges is a long-standing favourite way to edge a card, and looks perfect here.
