The Make It Monday #336 challenge on the Papertrey Ink blog is all about faux gilded leaves today! Laurie Schmidlin has a great tutorial on the steps. I don't own any two step stamping leaf images so had to improvise with this oak leaf from Tim Holtz' Leaf Blueprint stamp set with matching die. I stamped the entire blueprint image with Versafine black ink then clear embossed it. I then stamped the image again with Versamark ink and sprinkled 3 different embossing powders over it: gold, copper and silver (intead of platinum which I didn't have). It's hard to see in this photo, but the leaf is popped up with foam tape to give added dimension. The sentiment was gold embossed on black CS and is from PTI's Mum's the Word stamp set. The background die is from PTI's Mix and Mat: Plaid Die set.
