Embossing sheepski image

This challenge at Creative Knockouts is for Embossing using a image from Sheepski design  I chose this design, butterfly , as I had to make a man card and I wanted to try the technique of inking an embossed card ...... Man cards are always a challenge for me to make

                                                                                        

I used craft card for my base card, Embossed black card with this EB folder (can't think of the name of it) then I swiped over it with gold sparkle pigment ink I did it twice, I also went a bit thicker around the edges a bit of ink changes the whole look

I put the image in a word document and changed the colour, then put a border around it, I cut three, two I did not colour  The top image I coloured with colouring pencils and outlined it with fine liners. I cut two strips of plain black card and heat embossed the sentiment

I adhered the embossed card to the base, adhered the strips of card then adhered the images, the top one I used 3D foam 

I will definitely use this technique again
