And a Last Goodbye to the Occasions Catalog...

This is the final card from my retiring class this month and is a farewell to the Going Places suite from the Occasions catalog.  We used the retiring Black embossing powder on the Very Vanilla card stock and the Gold Foil sheets.  You definitely need to use your embossing buddy when embossing on the Gold Foil and tap it pretty hard against the table to knock off all loose powder but if successful, it looks awesome!

Gold Embossing Technique...

 Have you tried this technique yet?  Super easy and no two cards are the same! Take your embossing folder - on this card, I used the World Traveler embossing folder - and lightly rub a Versamark ink pad along the raised edges of the embossing folder.  Place your cardstock in the embossing folder and run it through your Big Shot.  Then take your Gold embossing powder and pour it over the embossed paper.  It will stick where you had applied the Versamark to the folder.  Emboss and you get a really cool look!  Don't forget to wash your embossing folder!  On the Compass Rose, I used the Gold Wink of Stella to collor it.  So what do you think?  Cool, huh?  It kind of reminds me of some of the pictures of the world taken from the Space Station.
