Description: A great card. The brass embossing template was used with a combination of the three metallic pastes, silver, gold and copper. Use it once and you may never use one metallic paste alone again. Take an appropriate amount of each color of paste and dab it separately onto a useless CD. Combine the three together by mixing once only then fill the image and swipe back across the surface to leave a smooth even finish. If you "work" the colors together they will mix and the individual colors will not be apparent. Remove template and leave to dry. If you are not experienced with the paste, ask for our Tips and Information sheet when placing an order.
We used the lovely Origami paper as a paper layer. We planned where the Harmony image would go, we then planned on using the small length of Mizuhiki. We made one 1/8" hole and two 1./16" holes and carefully threaded the Mizuhiki through the holes to form the loop as shown. We mounted a metallic Oriental coin over the center.
The Harmony card was cut as small as possible without losing the image and leaving enough room to outline. We used the Metallic Gold pen for that accent.
You will note at the bottom the rows of Mizuhiki cords. We used a strong tape and then pressed the cords down into place tightly up against each other.
The template you will receive will not have the image "Harmony" on it.
