Thanks for sharing your great article! I haven't touched metal in over a year, but your tips and photos made me want to haul out the old tools :-) Lovely work!
This is the definitive tutorial for anyone who wants to use copper in their art. Thank you for such a complete article. It is a true masterpiece.

WOW! What a wonderful article! It has so many samples that really allow you to see how to use the pieces. I think blending the copper with the fabric is exciting. The website must be tickled copper (pun) to have this article. I need to try putting the copper through the die cut machine using an embossing die. What mil of copper would you suggest?
Belinda, I enjoyed your article. Are you using alcohol inks on some of the copper foil? It looked like you might have. I especially liked the earings with the hearts that dangle.
