  5. This is so elegant, Karen! I would never have thought to emboss an entire bit of paper. Great technique!! It really does look like metallic paper!

  6. Like the gold metal look. Not thought to use Kraft paper & gold embossing powder. I've done heat embossing, dry embossing & started by embossing with a lightbox, stylus & template.

  27. This looks awesome. Love the metallic effect. Never thought of using the two techniques like this. I'm new to embossing (JUST got a Cuttlebug this week), so I will definitely have to give this a try!

    Thanks!

  44. Hi, I am reall glad I have found this info. Nowadays bloggers publish just about gossips and internet and this is actually irritating. A good site with nteresting content, this is what I need. Thank you for keeping this web site, I'll be visiting it. Do you do newsletters? Can not find it.

  45. Truly, this article is really one of the very best in the history of articles. I am a antique ’Article’ collector and I sometimes read some new articles if I find them interesting. And I found this one pretty fascinating and it should go into my collection. Very good work.
