Mimi,
Such a pretty tag……love the colors and, of course the extra added BLING with the foil and that gorgeous color embossing powder. I have foil that I use in my Minc machine…….would that work the same as the foil you used? And, if I lived near you, I would come to your studio and keep you company so you wouldn’t be all alone………LOL
Thank you Sharon! Good to hear from you and please do drop by anytime 🙂 This is ‘rub on foil’, I have not tried it with regular foil but it may work since the adhesive comes from the rub ons. Give it a try and let me know the result 🙂
Very pretty with that foil. I liked how you pushed the washi back by adding the paint over it, around the butterflies. I think I have a page in my journal that’s not done, but where I think that will help 😃
Glad I gave you an idea for your art journal page Sandy 🙂
It always makes my day to see that you’ve posted a new project! I love these techniques. I always learn so much from you. Thank you for sharing with us!
So happy to hear Heather, thank you so much for your kind words 🙂
