Christmas Foiling

By
It's time to head on over to the 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown for this week's stash challenge


Now I had to improvise big time with this challenge as I don't have any gilding flakes or foils. However I do have some foiled card stock. I used gold and red - take a look


My white panel was die cut with a star die. Into to aperture I place my gold star which also had a star cut out of it. Into that was placed and smaller red star. The stars are then completely flush with the base of the card.

Please do pop over to the blog - there are many more foiling techniques used by my fellow team members as well as a couple of videos.

Thanks for stopping by today - see you soon xx

    I like your take on the foiled theme. Such a clean, simple and elegant card. Love the sentiment stamped around the edge. Deborah xx

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr...
