CARDS DETAILS
I started working on these cards by gold heat embossing beautiful leaf images from the Thanks & Leaves stamp set from November Card Kit from Simon in Antique Gold embossing powder onto kraft paper (also include in the kit).
Next, I used two brown ink pads from my stash – Khaki and Chocolate Brown and ink blended ombre background from darkest at the top to lightest at the bottom. I also used Hero Arts White Iridescent Shimmer to add some shimmering sparkle to these backgrounds.
Next, I adhered my background panels onto A2 white side folding card bases and embellished both cards using gold confetti from my stash.
