Copper Repousse ATC

Okay people, here it is! Our copper repousse ATC. I am doing a super long wait between sign up and sending because I'll be mailing copper to all who join and want to have enough time to send to everyone and give enough time for everyone to work on these. I anticipate being able to send enough for two ATCs. The swap will be for one ATC for one partner, that way you can keep one for yourself.

So, using a tool (experiment and be creative, we have threads in the forum about this) etch a design in the copper. You can choose to keep the copper plain and shiny or add paints for additional interest, your choice. Please attach the copper to an ATC back to make it sturdy. Fold the edges of the copper so you don't have any point sharp edges sticking out. In the larger tile I made for class, we wrapped the edges of the copper around a piece of mat board to have nice clean edges and no sharp copper sticking out. If you do this, you can attach an ATC back to the wrapped piece and then have a place to sign and date.

Please feel free to pm me or comment below with questions or suggestions. I am absolutely not an expert at this, and it will be a great way to learn something new together.
