Somewhere I read (or saw) a post about doing this. I just made a note, assuming that I would remember what it was about. Of course, my memory isn't that good. LOL! My note only said, "3D emboss, then white ink then gold." So this is what I did, except my gold ink pad was dried up. I used an Altenew 3D folder to emboss the images. Then I rubbed my white ink pad over the embossed images. Then I rubbed my copper ink pad over the white. It is more shiny in person, naturally. For the sentiments, I first stamped them in white and then in copper, also. I thought these would work for sympathy cards.
Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

Blessings on Your Special Day
More background pieces used up. Getting close to using them all up! I matted these pieces. The flowers are from Altenew. The sentiment is from Gina K. The left flower on this first card and the flower on the second card have been popped up on foam squares. The sentiment on the first card was on foam squares, also. I ripped the edges of it and sponged ink on them.

More Tiny, Die-Cut Flowers
Finally, here is the other die-cut that I made about a month ago! I colored the flowers on this one and added it to a panel that was embossed with a Darice folder and matted. The sentiment is from a Gina K set.

Thank You Flowers
Finally - another card! Life is just too busy, but it's all good! I guess I didn't get the embossing very deep on the bottom of the white panel because it doesn't show very well. But, it's there! I got a new die at the Dollar Tree, so of course I had to try it out right away. I did it once with white on the top of the panel, and once in ivory, but just the thin strip. I colored the ivory one, and you'll see it some day. I scored the lines with my Scor-Buddy. The sentiment is from Avery Elle.

Birthday Roses
The background on this one was done by cleaning off my brayer. I had shown a friend how to brayer on an embossing folder, so I used the excess ink. The doily die-cut was from my card parts. The leaves are from Gina K. I have so many layered rose stamps that I'm not even sure where these are from. I have a new-to-me Altenew set, and they could be from there. The sentiment is a rub-on, also from my card parts.

And Even More Card Parts
These two die-cut backgrounds were in my card parts. I own the dies and I believe they are from Memory Box. I mounted this first one on foam squares. The flower pieces and sentiment were done a couple years ago using a borrowed Stampin' Up! set.

Using Up More Card Parts
I keep trying to use up more and more card parts. These backgrounds I have had for many, many years. I'm sure they were made with alcohol and Stampin' Up! inks. For this first one, I added a die-cut wreath. It had been cut out of purple cardstock. I colored the leaves green and added enamel dots to the flower centers. The sentiments were also in my card parts - stamped and die-cut using a Stampin' Up set. The "Sending" is mounted on foam squares.
The die-cut "doily" is from my card parts, as are the flowers and leaves. The sentiment is from an Altenew set. I used foam squares under the sentiment, the roses and the outer-most leaves.
