Credit card technique

Happy Monday everyone! I am so grateful for the comments that you leave on my blog. I often try and leave comments on blogs but find it very frustrating as they don't always appear or they take forever to load. But I really enjoy reading your blogs and getting to know you better.

I am sharing an a card that I made a few years ago, the background paper is wrapping paper. The image of the lady is a by South African company called Great Impressions, they have a lovely range of wood mounted stamps. The gold paper is made using the credit card technique where you crumple the brown card that comes in the middle of wrapping paper rolls, then spritz it with water and apply acrylic paint smearing it with an old credit card. The card is finished off with a skeleton leaf and paper rose.
