Faux Patina Card

I am always amazed how you can take a plain cardstock and transform it into a ‘wow’ project.

Here’s a card that starts out with Whisper White cardstock and after embossing it with the Lacy Brocade Embossing Folder, sponging with 3 different inks, then using gold embossing powder the plain Whisper White cardstock is transformed into this lovely faux patina look.  I also sponged the Marina Mist cardstock with Always Artichoke and Early Espresso inks. 

So what do you think?  Leave me a comment below.
