Silver Embossing on Brushed gold

I needed a break from making swaps for next weekend in Telford (A stamping up event where there will be approx 400 demonstrators attending - I am hoping to make 150 swaps tops!)
I decided that I would have a play at heat embossing in silver on brushed gold cardstock, then colouring in.  Here is the result!


This was really just a practice piece to see what the effects of the different colours would be,
but I was pleased with the results, so decided to make it into a card.
Stamp sets used are Secret Garden and Curly Cute.
