Foil Mingle

 Over at the About Oriental Stamp Art Yahoo Group (AOSA), there was a mingle for making cards using foil. I joined in and here is the card I created:

 I photographed the card at an angle to cut the glare and so you could see the purple shimmer on the dragonflies.
  I began by cutting cardstock, rolling it through the Xyron and adhering it to the card.  I added alcohol inks over the foil.  Once dry, I added green Stazon over the embossed areas.  On the dragonflies, purple shimmer : )
  The Panda is SU, and I sponged purple around the edges of the de cut piece, then added gold Nuvo drops in the corner and on the corner of the top of hte card. I layered the card on White cardstock.  I thought it needed one more thing, so chose to add purple twine at the top.

Challenges:
Artistic Inspirations- AG (june)

Very pretty Shelly. The purple on the butterflies looks awesome. I haven't worked with foil before. It seems to be the rage right now.

Very pretty foiled and colored embossed background and love the sparkly dragonflies. Since we are partnering with 2CCC's challenge we would love you to share this with us at Double Trouble as you have met our requirement of embossing or stenciling, and the dragonflies are certainly our optional twist of "things on a farm". Hope to see you there, challenge still open today.
