One of the most trendy crafting item today is the metallic paper. They are featured in many collections including Pink Paislee's Luxe (a real bargan at 40% off for this week only!!!). They are stunning and add so much to any crafting project.
This week I played with the As You Wish collection by Fancy Pants.
This collection features the new foil paper. I tried to think of different ways to incoporate this gorgeous shining paper onto my project. It was intimidating at first, but I just love the finished product. I am going to have to stock up on it!
First thing I did was plug in my Cricut machine and make a few die cuts. I used a CTMH cricut cartidge to cut out words and flower doilies.
Another technique I used was fringing. I cut a two inch strip of paper and with the help of scisors I cut slits at a quarter inch intervals going almost to the edge of the paper. It gives great texture to the paper. I also ruffled a one inch strip and glued it on top of the fringe.
I then added stickers, Recollections flowers and few fussy cut flowers around my picture.
To finish, I added Zva sparkles and some Tattered Angels Oil Slick.
And there you have it! So very easy and it gives such a statement to the layout. I hope you like it too!
Have an awesome day and don't forget to check out the amazing bargains over at the LCOM store!
