I just love the “BIack Ice” Technique. Following are some pictures of each card showing more detail. The first card is the simplest design utilizing the technique and some simple stamping. The second design has some die cuts and the stamped gold piece is significantly larger. The final card has more die cut pieces and a separate raised sentiment.
