One of my favorite faux techniques is faux metal tags. I love hardware and the look of metal on my scrapbook pages and cards. Basically you make a faux metal tag out of cardstock and metallic embossing powder. I emboss the whole piece of paper and do three coats of EP. While it is still hot stamp on it with a dry rubber stamp. I stamped the tag with small lettering so I only did two coats of EP. It’s a really fun and easy technique. If you’ve never tried it there is a tutorial on Splitcoaststampers.com. I also made this card for this week’s splitcoaststampers’ card sketch challenge (SC100).
