I finally finished my ATCs for the CBC swap, the theme this month was vintage or velvet so I incorporated both. The gold leafing was done first by running the blank card through a xyron then dunking the sticky side onto the gold leaf. I then took a stiff brush and brushed off the excess gold leaf. Parts of the ribbon were coloured with brown permanent pen. The velvet bit it the brown material cut from an old top, and the vintage parts are pictures.
