Metallic Decorative Trees

 

Decorative Trees stamp set + Wishing You Joy stamp set

This idea has been in the back of my head for a couple of weeks, and I finally had the opportunity to try it out......  All metallic trees using the Wow! Metallic Embossing Powders!  It is funny what will inspire a crafter.... in this case it was the ribbon.... Mossy Meadow with Gold.

The use of a blending brush and tonal ink creates a subtle yet rich border on the card front.  The Gold Foil cardstock makes the perfect frame for these metallic trees.
