Metal work

Another year another Anniversary, this time my daughters. Decided to do something entirely different and the flash of the camera shows the detail well. I am really pleased with the finished card.
Nicer on black.

For those crafters who are interested, it’s a 3D embossing folder embossed on black then coloured with muted graphite water soluble pencils, dried then gilded with 3 colors of gilding wax and finally a spray of clear varnish. It was matt and layered onto black and rose gold card stock that I had watermark stamped with the dahlia that I stamped colored and cut out to use as an embellishment. I was pleased with the result and at least I know it’s an individual card that they will not have duplicated!!

Thank you for all your wonderful comments and favs all are appreciated and very welcome..
This is beautiful, Margaret. Happy Anniversary to your daughter and her husband!

Your work is truly extraordinary, Margaret! I fully appreciate what you've made here as I was purchasing stamps in the earliest days and soon buying all the associated products to create cards! I do very little on the hands-on creations anymore, but have a number of friends who still do this as well. I just wanted you to know how much I fully appreciate the time it takes to do this! It's gorgeous!

@jamibann Thanks for the nod, Issi, and the kind words. I give it to Margaret here, however, as she has far surpassed me where I left off!
