Super fast foiled card

I was experimenting with foil and came up with this. If you saw the glitter-glue technique, this is similar. I love how the foil shines over the muted Distress Inks!

Very nice! I know this is going to be a dumb question, but how did the foil turn red on the embossed area? Thank you for sharing...

@Moondoongirl The foil is red. This is craft foil - it's meant to be applied over glue of some kind. Mine is Art Accents Foilz but it is very old :) You lay it over the glue and it sticks. I think you want to look for CRAFT FOIL - Giddy-Up-Foiled-Again is a product at Walmart that I think is similar - but not sure :)

@Moondoongirl Actually, looking at the walmart stuff, it may NOT be the right stuff. I'm still looking.

Awesome technique! I have very little use for my glue pad, but your idea of using a brayer opens the door to a hundred new techniques. Thanks!

I actually have some of the foils and they are ancient! Hope they still work. I was wondering what to do with them. Thank you for the great technique. Leslie (congroveld)

So pretty! I have some of that foil and will definitely get it out and try it! I especially like it with the embossing folders.
