Foiled Again.....FMS260






Miss Emma has been eyeing up my glitter paper and foil sheets so I promised her we would make some Christmas cards from them.  The sparkle of the silver glitter paper looks wonderful against the bright red foil......but unfortunately my camera just doesn't quite see it that way!  Who knew foil paper was so hard to capture on camera?!?!  I know that now!  I tried the photo from another angle but that was even worse....



But we are going to soldier on and make a few more of these because they really are bright and beautiful for the holidays!  In the meantime Emma has already started working on a different kind of holiday treat!




Kim Singdahlsen Has a great sketch for us this week at Freshly Made Sketches!  I used Lil' Inkers Jingle Bells Dies and SU's Silver Glimmer Paper and Red Foil for my card.

Indeed, foil paper make gorgeous cards but it acts as a diva when you want to make a picture ...you have to go down on your knees and pray to have the right angle. Your card is so beautifu! so clean and classy. A perfect Christmas card !

That darn foil paper. Why doesn't it ever cooperate? Someday the secret to great photography will be revealed to us, then watch out! We will overwhelm the world with our boundless, shiny creativity. In the meantime I will silently acknowledge all the sparkly goodness on this card. Those glittery bells are fabulous@

Gorgeous card, Linda! I loved it when I thought you used a cardstock panel with the gorgeous glitter bells,seeing that it is foil just makes it that much more festive!
