Stamp-a-faire 2017: Bronze Gilded Embellishments

27 Aug

Good afternoon and happy Sunday!!  If you follow me on instagram you might have seen my post a few days ago sharing the news; but if not, I am thrilled to share that I was invited to guest-design for Papertrey Ink’s Stamp-A-Faire 2017 and my challenge has just gone live over on the Papertrey Ink blog!  Papertrey Ink is celebrating their 10th anniversary and Stamp-A-Faire is presenting video challenges all weekend long featuring the first 10 traditional anniversary gifts.

I am sharing a project using the 8th year’s traditional gift of bronze!  I’ll admit I was a bit stumped when I first thought of using bronze on a card and was even more mystified when I did a bit of research and realized that the color of bronze can range from green gold to almost copper red.  But I decided to embrace all the unusual shades of bronze and create a card with a variety of bronze elements and a gilding technique using a common crafty supply in an unconventional way! 😉

Here’s a sneak peek of my card and I hope you’ll head over to the Papertrey Ink blog to see the full project and video!

    What a gorgeous embossing powder you mixed up. Design looks amazing in teal with the “bronze” highlights.
