Coging along to say Hello

I am really enjoying playing with the 

November Challenge over at CAS Mix Up

I played around with embossing powders here

going by This Tutorial by Theartfulinker.

I saw this card on Pinterest Here and loved it

thinking it case perfect for this challenge.

As I had gold paper out on my desk I decided to 

play around with that starting by embossing it with

Kaisercraft Cogs. Then the fun began by

heat embossing bit by bit in different colours.

I used WOW Chocolate Caramel Pearl

Colour Blast Deep Water, Lindy's Pumpkin Fiesta

and thought the Stampedous Aged Copper Embossing Enamel

would add interest but didn't turn out 

as pronounced  as I thought it would.

I then decided to add a few Finnabair waxes in

Rich Copper, Mint Crackle and Peacock

adding a bit more shimmer

(as if there wasn't enough)

I cut the three panels out and backed them

 with gold paper. I was going to add metal cogs

from my stash but then remembered I had dies

from Craft Emotions so cut them out with the same gold paper.

Adhered them to my corner rounded 

white embossed cog background

which is a little hard to see here

on to gold paper and white card base.

My simple Hello is from STAMPlorations

 (needed a tiny sentiment to fit)

heat embossed in gold.

My Mix is

Oxidized Metal, stamping, embossing, die cutting.

Thanks for dropping in today. Love reading your comments.

I will be back to play with this technique again soon.
