Something Saturday - Hooray for Honeycomb Kit

These are the finished cards the top card is the one I actually make in the video : Now that I'm looking at them on here, I'm thinking it would make a really cool tag to hang on a Christmas Stocking!  They kind of end up looking a bit like dog tags!  Or even on a scrapbook layout it would look really great! Anyway I'm sure if you haven't viewed the video that you're wondering how I've done this. It's actually quite simple if you know how to heat emboss! Take your piece of card, wipe it over with your Versamark ink pad, then cover it with heat embossing powder, and heat emboss it. Then repeat the process so (in my case) the Gold or Copper gets thi
