Foiled!



The Daring Cardmakers dare this weekend was 'Foiled!'

We were to use some plain old aluminum (aluminium for our friends across the pond!) foil from your kitchen. It could be scrunched, die cut, embossed, inked, coiled, used to cover chipboard - or anything else!

So I didn't just make one card, I made three. And I used my new favourite tool, the Cuttlebug to emboss the foil! I'd never thought of using foil on a card or layout before and it is unique and fun!

I quite liked how this flower framed the felt sticker.



A couple of close ups.





And I think that's it for the valentine themed cards, I'm out of paper!
