Metal Foil Art Card

Metal Foil Art
Hi friends this season rather than making festive cards using paper I find myself experimenting with other media.Have already shared a Glitter Foam card and a Glitter Foam- Thermocol card. This card has metal foil art!
Metal Foil Art
If you are not familiar with metal foil art- its a pretty cool technique and involves scratching a black coated metal sheet with  a knife to create the design.This was my first trial with this craft style and the deer turned out much better than I expected so I had to frame it in a special festive card !
Handmade Flowers
Since the foil art itself was black and silver added stamped leaves and quilled fringed + punchcraft flowers around it for a pop of color!
Metal Foil Art
Framed it in a Spellbinders die and added a Seasons greeting!The silver leaves are the silver roses you see are actually lightweight metal too!
Handmade flowers
I wanted silver to be a prominent element so added silver glitter balls to the flower centers, silver glitter foam die cut scallops and silver liquid pearls on the stamped leaves.
Metal Foil Art
I hope you like my Metal foil art deer bringing you festive cheer!
Supplies : Dies : Spellbinders  Majestic labels 25, Spellbinders decorative labels 8, Spellbinders Rose creations,Spellbinders Asian accents, Heart felt creations leaf,Memory box fringe,  Stamps : Heartfelt creations leaf.Misc: Liquid pearls from Crafters Corner
Edited : this card was Top 3 at Beyond Grey Challenge

  1. Stunning with the Deer metal foil art. Was the Deer design from a kit? My hubby was in Colorado Springs, CO a couple wks ago and he saw & photographed a Buck & Doe in a neighborhood.

    1. Yes Melissa the deer design was very slightly visible in the metal foil art kit. It was super easy to make and turned out better than I had expected!
