Pauline<\/a> experimented with a simple foiling technique that doesn\u2019t require heat setting. She applied Therm O Web Transfer Gel Duo<\/a> through a Simon Says Stamp Geo Leaves stencil<\/a>, and when dry covered with  a Therm O Web Rainbow Deco Foil transfer sheet<\/a> and ran through her die cutting machine. The sentiment is Therm O Web OH HELLO stamp and die set<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Andrea<\/a> colored the edges of her ATC with Gold Deco Foil<\/a> attached easily enough with Aleene’s Turbo Tacky Glue<\/a>. The ATC shape was cut using Tim Holtz’s Collector Die Set<\/a> and the text in the background is from AALL & Create’s Mix and Match Washi Tape<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Anna-Karin<\/a> made a Valentine’s tag using foil around the edges and for the die cuts. The sentiment was die cut with Simon Says Stamp Groovy Love Your More die.<\/a> The foil is Therm O Web Rose Quartz<\/a> and Gold Deco Foil<\/a>. The background is stenciled with Simon Says Stamp Funky Hearts.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Barbara<\/a> made an Etcetera Mini Tag<\/a> using a pack of Transfer Foil Sheets from Ranger Ink <\/a>to add sparkle to the background and frame. For the background she chose a stencil from Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Mini Set 25<\/a> used with Ranger Ink Distress Crackle Paste Opaque <\/a>and Distress Oxide Speckled Egg<\/a> and Ranger Ink Distress Reinker Walnut Stain<\/a>. In the center she chose a photo and frame from the Tim Holtz Idea-ology Photo and Frame Bundle.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Ka<\/a>th<\/a> made Winter Birthday cards using Decofoil Rainbow Foil Transfer Sheets<\/a> to create backgrounds on Distress Black Heavystock<\/a>, stamped and heat embossed snowflakes from Tim Holtz\/Stampers Anonymous Mr Frostie<\/a>, added Simple Sayings<\/a> sentiments and Simon Says Pawsitively Prism Dazzling Gems<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Macarena<\/a> used a golden foil coated cardstock Tim Holtz Idea-ology Kraft Stock Metallic Classic<\/a> and cut out Tim Holtz Sizzix Silhouette Birds<\/a>. She made the background with Gel Press 8×10 Gel Printing Plate<\/a> and StencilGirl Kintsugi <\/a>stencil. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Maura<\/a> upcycled some foil which she colored with alcohol inks like Tim Holtz’s Flamingo <\/a> and embossed the foil with the Simon Says Stamp Criss Cross Floral Embossing Folder.<\/a> She added some detail to the card background with Simon’s Square Dance stencil<\/a>, and topped it with Stamperia’s Altered Ego Ephemera <\/a>to finish her cards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Meihsia<\/a> was inspired to create a mixed media tag using Tim Holtz idea-ology BASEBOARD FRAMES<\/a> on the background, and decorated it with American Crafts Foil Washi Tape<\/a> and Pinkfresh Studio Foiled Sentiments 6 Ephemera Set<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Zoey<\/a> used Decofoil<\/a> to add some shine! She also used Distress Ink Spray<\/a> + Oxide Spray <\/a>to add color and Ideaology Embellishments<\/a> + Stickers<\/a> to decorate her tag. The leave stamp is from the Sketchy Leaves<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
