Today's Technique Lover's Challenge was to use foil in an embossing folder. You can find links to all the week's challenges on the home page.
I put my foil covered card stock through the Cuttlebug using the swirled embossing folder. I then rubbed blue metallic rub-ons onto the foil and then sprayed with Krylon sealer. It was still smearing when I finished, so I'm not sure if this product is appropriate for foil! I colored the stamped image with copics, attached it to the foiled cardstock, added a hand crocheted flower with brad, and was done! Quick and easy! If it is still smearing tomorrow, I will take it apart and redo that panel.
Thanks for looking!

I just dont get it, Anne. You stampers use all kinds of details about the things you do and the things you've used and I'm totally clueless over here in lumberjack country. I'm going to be in Phoenix on Oct 20-24. Are you anywhere near that airport? I love your card despite the fact that I really have no idea how you got it to look so fabulous.
