Finally did my card for the Ways to Use It challenge "From the Kitchen".
I used a technique I learned at a recent card class. I glued some tin foil on a scrap of cs, ran it through an embossing folder, then pressed Versamark ink all over it, and dropped a variety of alcohol inks on it. I dried it with a heat gun, then pressed the Versamark over it again, then covered with UTEE, heated till melted, and then repeated this whole step again to get a good thick clear layer over the dry embossing and alcohol ink.
Mounted it on a shimmery white cardbase, and die cut the sentiment from the same shimmer white.

A great sentiment to go with that panel, because I know how fabulous and shiny alcohol inks on their own on foil look. And I am betting that the added steps you use make this look like enamel!

Beautiful card, Susan. Your foil bg looks like enameling on metal and the way you applied your colors gives the most gorgeous effect especially with the embossing.
