Hi Stampers:
Todays video I will show you how I made this Faux Metal Button/ Tag /Thing a ma bob Hee! Hee! You will need your choice embossing powder ( I will be using Silver ) , Versa Mark ink pad , Heat tool, and a Stamp image, and a Scrap piece of Card stock (I will be using whisper white ). For my card base and layer I am using the Flower power card elements & ridding hood red with the 5 petal flower punch along with White Taffeta ribbon. Card measures 3x3.
Have a Stamp Happy Day !
Enjoy
Dawn
Are you kidding me? I don't know what I am impressed with more....the faux metal technique or the purple border around your video tutorial!!! Wow! What a cool technique! I wonder what image I have to 'wow' my cards with!
Thanks for sharing!!!

Great job. I can see my advanced stampers doing this but my beginners are so impatient. But it does But a Wow Wow in a simple demonstration for a hostess party. My beginner stampers would have that embossing powder everywhere! I am going to use this technique on some 6x 6 pages. Love your videos and listening to you.

Ive always wanted to know how to do this. Ive read about it but it sounded like a lot of work. But once you see it done its doesnt look all that hard. Thanks for always showing us new things.

Faaaaaaaaabulous! I've never tried it this way. I've done it where I stamp something in Versamark and then pile on the embossing powder several times. Can't wait to try!

Very cool, Dawn. I missed last month's Stamp Heaven where my friend showed this technique, so i appreciate the video. but, i'd like to know what you used for the stripes on the card. are those ribbons or patterned paper? they look really great!

You're very creative and I love the good bye at the end! :)
I'm new kind of at this but been doing crafting for a long time.
I'd like to make a webpage URL like this and don't know how to go about it. Any recommendations? Thanks for sharing!
