Before you say, well, you should have laid it flat to dry so it wouldn't slide like that. Guess what, I did! Then I left it alone and worked on my emails for a bit. When I turned around again to take pictures for posting, I found this:
Arrrghhh! So, I tried again. Mind you, I had planned on making two card, so the measurements are all the same, I cut two of each ahead of time.
THIS is what it was supposed to look like. So, for this card, I attached the top layer to the foil later with Tear and Tape and it didn't budge!
The background is made with our new Embossing Paste and a couple of drops of Pool Party re-inker. I simply mixed it together on my Silicon Sheet and gently spread it onto the Whisper White and set it aside to dry. Being thicker than it would be with a stencil, I gave it plenty of time to dry. You could help it along with your Heat Gun, but not really necessary. ** The cardstock WILL curl a bit, but don't worry, it will flatten back out.
Recipe:
Whisper White Thick cardstock - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4"
Foil cardstock 5 1/4" x 4"
Whisper White - 5 1/8" x 3 7/8"
Whisper White scraps for sentiment
Remember, use your "hidden" foil to cut out your butterfly - or anything else you can fit in there for another day. No point wasting all that pretty paper!
Thank you for looking in today. I hope you learned something new!

Yes, I found it out the hard way on the foil sheets. That was last year before the Tear and Tape which I do like but finally resorted to the red lined tape and then the static was so bad getting the red liner off. Finally, I was able to complete whatever it was but it was a struggle. It was the silver too and it had a snowflake on it that kept moving too. Anyway, this is a cool card and at first I thought you wanted it to tilt and thought I would have tilted it more! I love the embossing paste on there - so pretty. I still have yet to get any.
