Welcome to Funday Friday Challenge #149 over at Jo's Scrap Shack


Our theme for this week is "Anything Goes "

I have used the LBBS fabulous digital image "You Got a Present".  

I have created my card so it can be used as either a birthday or Christmas card.  My image has been coloured with Copic and Finecolour markers and cut out using my Scan N Cut machine.

Green card was then cut to cover my card base and for my image to mount onto.  The pink/silver layer was a new experiment for me.  

I had been shown a foiling technique using Jac paper- a double sided adhesive sheet.  Having no Jac paper on hand I decided to experiment putting a piece of cardstock through my xyron machine.  Once the adhesive was applied and before removing the backing sheets I embossed the cardstock using my cuttlebug and an embossing folder.  Then removing the backing sheet to expose the adhesive I lay across a sheet of silver craft foil and rubbed with my hands.  The foil adhered to the embossed areas.  I then sprinkled pink glitter onto the areas that were not embossed to cover over the remaining adhesive.  

The photo doesn't do justice to how pretty it looks.  There are a few little spots where the adhesive has lifted.  I'm not sure if this is because the xyron hasn't been used in a while or that the adhesive is not suited to this technique.  I will be trying the foiling again for another project in the future.

Once all the layers were combined I finished my project off with liquid pearls.

I hope you join in with us - Come on get creative.
I'm excited to see what you create!
I plan to enter the following challenges:-
