This card has amazing texture in the die cut leaves, and smooth metallic cardstock.
I saw a tutorial using a folded paper napkin put through the cb using a die cut on top. The many layers of the napkin were sort of fused together. then I water colored with metallic paint that puffed up the napkin again. Really cool.
So.......the rough part of my card is the napkin, and the smooth is the metallic die, and the cardstock in white and RED.
I may just do another card, as this challenge is so interesting and also intruiging!
P.S. Found the tutorial here:

What an inventive technique and I love the texture from the added water color! I'm going to try this. I actually did this sort of. Stamped and compressed toilet tissue and then cut out and colored with inks and a fairly dry brush. It was fun. Your leaves are such a pretty shade and I love the frame in the metallic CS.

BEAUTIFUL! Love the technique you've shared and it so pretty with wonderful texture on your card. Love the gray-green (moss) coloring with the bold red word sentiment and little holly berry gems!
