Vintage-Look Embossing

Its Sunday evening...I've got just a few minutes before heading off to church so here is a really quick post! 
This sympathy card was made for the "Anything Goes" challenge* at SweetStamps
where I am the November Guest Designer.


I have used several SweetStamps items to create the delicate look here:
Stamps - "With Sympathy", "Rose Corner Lg", "Vertical Rose Border",
"Scroll Shadow Box Frame", and 
the ArtsyfArtsy "Swirly Doodle Butterflies".
I also used the new Piccolo "Vintage Copper Enamel Powder" for the lovely metalic embossing.


*Oops! I thought I had another day yet but that challenge ends tonight, so it wouldn't make sense for me to post it on their blog any more. Oh well, I'll have another card to add in a few days for the next challenge!
