This is for today's Ways to Use it challenge which was to incorporate foil. I used a Spellbinder's button die and cut it out from a soda can. I also punched a circle out for the flower center, then dotted it with green stickles for some sparkle. This is also for Sunday's featured stamper--JustPaintingAround. If you haven't seen her gallery, you're really missing something! Michelle was so sweet and answered some questions about her fabulous technique, so I thought I'd give it a try. Wow does it ever require some thought. I hope I did you proud Michelle. TFL

I'm so glad you tried out Michelle's scene...looks like you nailed it! Your clouds and grass are fabulous...beautiful card. I bought this set when it retired and have yet to ink it up!

I adore this card and love the technique. However, I have been wading through Michelle's blog and have no idea where to even begin looking or this technique. Is there any help you can give me in finding her technique, or by chance, do you have the instructions. I am desperate to use this technique!!
And, yes, I think you did her much more than proud!!

Hi, again, it's Pam from Price....if you're not sure which card I'm referring to, it's in the "In Full Bloom" gallery, 1st page, dated April 2nd. Thanks, again.
