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.
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!
