Add That Shine with Metallic CardStock

Hello friends!

I am popping in to share a very shiny project. This card was create initially for last month's release. I must admit that I am quite addicted to Climbing Leaves Set.  


 This is my 3rd version with this set and I think I could keep going if I have all the time in the world....!

There are more and more metallic cardstock in the crafting world now. Altenew came up with 4 kinds of metallic cardstock. I love them all, but this Rose one is certainly very eye-catching thanks to the redish/gold sheen.

The "trick" to get that delicate look with a stamp set like Climbing Leaves

It is the coordinating die that makes the design EASY. I simply

1.  inked up the paper in various green

2. stamp (yes, stamp later)

3. die cut!

 Done.

 One more tip about using the metallic cardstock.... turn them into matching sequins! I used my old paper hold-punch and I now have the perfect "sequins"!
