Hi stampers! It is the last day of September and the grand finale of STAMPtember® at Simon Says Stamp.

I made a quick and simple card with a metallic copper dry embossed background. It looks very interesting in real life, as light reflects on the embossed surface. I used the Simon Says Stamp Triangle Burst 3-D embossing folder. 

For the background, I adhered Sizzix Rose Gold foil sheet to cardstock and then embossed it in the Triangle Burst folder. This is such a cool and intricate design. The Rose Gold color looks a lot like copper, which is one of my favorite metals.

The houses were left-over from another project and stamped with the Simon Says Stamp Printmaking Houses stamp set.

Start by stamping the solid houses.

The add the roofs and windows in two steps.

Finally stamp the outline. Don't worry if it isn't perfectly aligned since a little off-setting will add to the look.

Adhere the houses with foam tape. Make a 'road' for them with Design Tape, a label sentiment sticker and a piece of twine.

The embossed background was mounted on two shades of teal cardstock.

For even more shine I die cut the Clipping Hearts from Aqua Holographic paper. For another example using the Triangle Burst folder, check out my Foxglove Tag.

STAMPtember® is almost over. Don't miss the grand finale today. There has also been a huge Simon Says Stamp release for STAMPtember®, with stamps, dies, stencils, inks and paper products.

Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by here today! 

Happy crafting!
