The aluminium tape was attached to a card and after embossing I added acrylic paints (raw umber and bone black) and light green alcohol ink. While doing the piece with the sentiment, I realized I'm going to have to by platinum embossing powder, the silver is too blue for the aluminium tape... But I have tinted it too with green alcohol ink (though I had to keep to the edges, because I had already stamped the sentiment with Stazon). I couldn't trim the embossed card, because that would have spoiled the numbers, so I had to search my stash for a larger piece that would make it possible to mount this on a 5x7 card base. There is a skeleton leaf behind the sentiment, but it is barely visible :)
great card Kristiina, love the way you altered the aluminium tape.

VastaaPoistaIsn't aluminum tape fun to explore new techniques with? Awesome sauce design and yes, I can see the leaf! Hehe! The subtle green AI you used is the perfect touch to this design. Fantabulous!
