It's a card, BUT it doesn't fit anywhere else. Start with Shimmery White metallic paper. Cut it 1/8"larger than the final size you want it to be. Crunch it up--very thoroughly. Then smooth it out. Mix some Vanilla Craft re-inker (4 parts) with Close to Cocoa Craft re-inker (1 part). With a wet paintbrush, color the entire surface of the cardstock. Then add Going Gray to darken the creases. Add Blush Blossom randomly until you have the effect you want. Touch the raised ridges with White Craft re-inker. While the ink is still wet, cover with clear embossing powder and emboss.
