I do not have the right kind of embossing
folder to mimic her technique but I did
remember I had done some foil
tape over AC Thickers one time.
Added some lettuce & cranberry
alcohol ink, some blending solution and
came up with this card.

About the only thing that is similar to
her example is that I have embossed letters
on my main panel and snowflakes on the
edges! I am thinking I really need to
buy that Sizzix Christmas Words folder!
Very pretty!
ReplyDeleteCool! Tell me more of how you did this!
ReplyDeleteI place the alphabet letters on a piece of cardboard and then cover them with foil tape you can buy at a hardware store. Take the end of a paintbrush and gently "trace" around each letter. Put some alcohol inks of your choice onto a felt pad, add some blending solution and dab it onto the foil. Using paint on foil and then wiping off the extra gives a cool finish, too.
