Finally Friday Challenge #24 ( Guest Designer)

Let's all welcome our guest designer for this weeks Finally Friday Challenge.

Welcome, Anne Marie. I have known Anne Marie for some 30 + years. She has been my inspiration and the reason I started stamping. She is my go to partner in crime and I love her and her family dearly.

Anne Mare has decided to challenge us with 
Faux Metal Technique.

( In Her words)

Most of us have used foil cardstock and I have even cheated with tin foil wrapped over cardstock to get that fun metal look, With this technique, you get the thickness and real look of a metal embellishment. 
You simply coat your piece of cardstock with versamark, cover with silver or grey embossing powder, heat and dry 3 times. The forth time, have your stamp covered with versamark and ready. Just as the last coat of powder is fully heated press the stamp on and hold 10 seconds. Lift and see!

If you need more help here is a video.

Here are Anne Maries 2 cards she has made as inspiration for us.






She used Carousel Birthday & Feeling Sentimental

They are simply BEAUTIFUL!!

Thank You, Anne Marie !!!


So ok I took her challenge and I found if you follow her instruction it's pretty easy. The hardest part was deciding what I wanted to do.

 My cards

Yes I veered off and used gold because it's chilly today and put me in a fall mood haha





OK Your turn !!!



Anne Marie says:
