:: ATC and Foil - Tutorial ::

At Pyssloteket we are having a Foil theme for two weeks. I don´t use Foil a lot but I manage to make four ATC and a tutorial :) First I used a embossing folder from WRMK called quilted. Then I used Three different Distress Ink colors.

I started off with the only technique I used before with Foil and that is Prima Rub-ons for Foil.

It worked really well even on the embossed surface.

I needed more shine so I used double-sided tape. I bought this role of double-sided tape for only 19 swedish crowns at Pyssloteket. A bargain!

I think Tim Holtz scissor works really well on double-sided tape.

I wanted to use chipboards on my ATC´s and I had no idea how to get the Foil to stick on the chipboard? Then I remembered that I had this 2 way glue. And It worked really well!

This is how the ATC´s turned out! I think I like them. I´m pleased that I managed to include three different techniques how to use Foil on just one ATC :)

Besides Foil from Prima I used chipboard from Wycinanka, flowers from Prima, Art-stones from Prima, Sisal in black, gold thread from Panduro, black caviar beads, gold glitter and Distress Paint in the same shades as the Distress Ink mini pads.

To get some more depth on the background I sprinkled Distress Paint in Black Sooth.

I used both small and large Art-stones from Prima. I really like that you can paint the stones.

To get some more gold I used a gold thread behind the flowers.

I started to sew around the edges but it was to thick and tough so I used a pen instead.
