This is my card for the technique challenge. I glued my foil to the cardstock, then colored with alcohol inks before embossing. The photo corners are made from some very old textured gold wrapping paper, which I glued to cardstock to give stability. Leaf is embossed in copper.

That is so pretty!!! I love your fall colored aluminum foil. I tried to do this technique and added reinkers to the foil, well, you know that doesn't work because it doesn't dry. Bummer for me. Looks like I need MORE supplies.

Wow, you would never know it started out as good old tin foil-I call it that too! Just gorgeous! I have never used alcohol inks and this gives me an idea of what they look like-tfs.
