Picked out papers to work with the image
Foil color of choice – Silver
My foils are from ScrapPerfect, I find they are precut to the right size for my card making and come in beautiful color assortments.
Embossing folder, Embossing machine:
The next step is to simply lightly rub a little Best Glue Ever over the raised embossed area and lay the foil (shiny side up) on top and lightly rub over with a tissue. I let it dry. Actually, I just cooked supper at this point. an hour later I gently lifted the foil:And I had a beautiful foiled surface; The trick is to let the glue dry! With the BGE, you don’t need a separate foiling medium! One less thing occupying desk real estate!
Coloring for the image – I take my time doing this part and I enjoy doing those swatches. They become a super reference for things in the future. And I do use a color wheel. I feel like I have good color sense but I am always working on enhancing my color use. For this card, I fussy cut the stamped image by hand.
Again I hand cut a black border to give a contrasting definition with the strong background patterns.
