I started by cutting a strip of the Galvanized paper and after spritzing it with water, ran it through the Big Shot in the new Corrugated Embossing Folder. Sweet! (However, I had the piece turned the wrong way in the embossing folder and had to do it again :( Oh well, I had a practice piece!)
After it dried, I used sponges to apply Balmy Blue, Blueberry Bushel and Cajun Craze to the corrugated piece to make it look like slightly discolored, rusty metal.
Next, I embossed a Cajun Craze matte with the Scattered Sequins Embossing Folder but turned it to the debossed side. It provided a surprisingly pleasing contrast to the embossed metal.
I adhered the metal strip to the matte with Dimensionals and then wound some of the Copper trim around the matte, securing it at the back with Fast Fuse. This matte was then adhered to a Blueberry Bushel card front using Dimensionals.
Next, from the Rooted in Nature Bundle I stamped eight small leaves on Blueberry Bushel using matching ink, and three larger leaves on Cajun Craze. These were die cut and then the edges were sponged with contrasting inks.
I used the 1" Circle Punch to create a base from Blueberry Bushel and then glued the small blue leaves to it. The Cajun Craze leaves were added under it and a Clear Faceted Gem was added to the centre. It was adhered to the card front with Dimensionals.
The sentiment, from the Abstract Impressions stamp set, was stamped with Versamark on Blueberry Bushel and then heat embossed 2X using Copper Stampin' Emboss Powder. The strip was trimmed and then adhered to the card front.
On a Thick Whisper White matte, three larger leaves were stamped in Cajun Craze and then two smaller leaves were stamped in Blueberry Bushel on matching card stock and die cut. These were glued in place over the stamped leaves with the excess trimmed off with scissors. The matte was adhered inside the card.
