Freshly Brewed Projects: Metallics

The inspiration for this Freshly Brewed Project is ….

Metallics

Have you discovered the awesome Brushed Metallic Cardstock in the August-December 2020 Mini Catalogue!!! It comes in Bronze, Copper & Gold. By using the Colour Blocking technique and adhering strips of each of the 3 colours I created these 2 cards for my catalogue launch.

For the cards below I have used: Pointsettia Petals Bundle, Gold Cards & Envelopes, Vanilla Card stock, Gold Metallic edge Ribbon, Adhesive sheets, Beaded Pearls and Soft Suede Ink, Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder, Copper Foil, Banners Pick a Punch & Basket Weave & Metallic Ribbon Combo.

First step is to cut one of each of the different Brushed Metallic sheets in half and adhere to an Adhesive sheet.
Now cut each piece into strips, they can be any width.
Take a piece of copy paper and adhere the strips making a pattern.
When you have adhered all your strips cut this piece to the size you need for your project.
Using the Poinsettia Dies I cut out the flower and leaf from my created strip piece.
Then place it over a slightly smaller piece of very vanilla cardstock and stamped the images through the cut out image
Adhere these together with dimensionals.
Before attaching this piece to one of our Gold Cards I tied some ribbon and added a Beaded Pearl and sentiment.

For this card I am using the cut out piece from the previous card.
I attached them to a piece of very vanilla card and embossed with the Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder.
I stamped the image and sentiment from the Poinsettia Petals Stamp set. Added some ribbon and Wonderful gems.
then adhered it to a mat of Copper foil before attaching to a very vanilla card base.

I hope that I have given you some inspiration to have a play with the Brushed Metallic card stock, the possibilities are endless. Now it is time to see what other great ideas are install for us today.
