Gold

What horrible weather. But all the better to stay and play with my craft goodies. Being playing with flitter glue thick embossing powder . The image I think is from indigo blu I used some cut and dry foam cover it in flitter glue, then dabbed the image with glue. Let it dry for five minutes then cover stamped image with gold flakes brushed off excess. Did the same with words.
 With the leaf I was watching create and craft when I saw this done took the idea. I inked the leaf then used thick embossing powder. Used my heat gun first time for ages.
The tape at the bottom is Tim Holtz. Used stampendous bronze glitter and gems for bling .
