If you have a metallic acrylic paint (most acrylic paint ranges including the cheaper ones have at least gold and silver), you can do the same technique using a piece of sponge (a cut up bath sponge would do). You just need to use a small amount of paint and go quite quickly (because acrylic paint dries quite fast).

The ice crystal I think was my favorite 2. Brushing the pastes on the embossing was an interesting surprise for the finished product. I would have liked to have seen the succulent striped paper layered over a solid succulent color then put on the white base. The solid border would have brought out the gilded embossed flowers quite nicely.

Great ideal. Love all the cards. Is your pattern paper card stock or more paper. Just wondering cause I’ll have to check my pattern paper. I think they tend to be more paper versus card stock. But you said the lighter weight paper did better with the embossing. I’ll have to get some out and try this technique. Great idea. I never know what to do with my pattern papers.

My handful of blending foams for these metallic polishes I just store in a little plastic bag. I don't rinse them out or the foam that comes with it either.
