Sealed in copper

I don't normally get to join in the Wednesday Stamper challenges because I'm too busy mid week, but I'm on half term holiday, and they have an open theme. So here's my contribution.

I made the seal with 3 layers of Amazing Glaze and a top layer of copper embossing powder. This fulfilled a challenge set on 2Peas Stamp Camp to make a faux tile. The main image and folded card are sponged with cling film (clear food wrap) using metallic inks.

The card is half an ordinary notecard size.---
Stamps: Stampington Venezia Correspondance; Invoke Arts Pens and Nibs; ISC All About Me

Inks: Brilliance Mineral; DI Black Soot; Archival Black; Versamark; H2Os in Copper Penny and Spiced Pumpkin

Extras: Judikins Amazing Glaze; Copper EP; Cling Film; Waterbrush; Circle Punch

Ros, I love that technique of using the clear wrap with ink. I'll have to go try that. Your card is gorgeous. I especially am impressed (pun!!!) by your seal.
