Silver and White Card - Take 2

Remember my post yesterday, when I said that the silver and white challenge was challenging?  I was happy with my entry, but thought -- can I do a different take on this?  Maybe try to use different shades of silver on my card?

Here's what I managed:

Since I didn't have many shades of silver ink, I improvised by using white shimmer cardstock and used different shades of gray ink (supplies list are at the bottom of the post).

I used the embossing folder and layering stencils from Altenew's Craft Your Life Project Kit this month (Feathered Lilies) for this card.  The Altenew embossing folders are thicker than the regular embossing folders that I had, so I had to figure out the correct "sandwich" for my die cut machine.   

I used the one of the cutting plates, the Altenew embossing folder with the paper inside, and then this mat before running it through the machine.

I used these small stencil brushes to dab the ink through the stencils.

I then heat embossed the "Hello" sentiment (from the Altenew Feathered Lilies stamp set) using embossing ink and embossing powder.

This will be my second entry to the Color Hues The Color Challenge for this week.
