Just Us Girls #627 - Trend Week

 It's time for Trend Week at Just Us Girls and Ina has a very cool challenge for us!


We have the amazing Mac Mable with us again this week as our Guest Designer!  Come on over to JUGS to see what Mac and the rest of the awesome Design Team have created using foil on alcohol inked background.
Started with a blue alcohol ink Yupo background and added some lines of glue following some of the edges in the alcohol ink with a Sakura glue pen.  After the glue dried, tapped the areas with silver foil to create the silver veins.  It was hard to get a good photo of this.  Added some white die cut leafy branches and layered the sentiment strip which was stamped with silver ink.  Layered onto a mini slimline white card base.

Come play along with us and you could become our next Chic of the Week, which would then make you eligible at a chance to become our next Guest Designer!  Please limit your entries to 3.

The background looks so pretty with the blue alcohol ink and the silver foiling and I love the crisp white die cut leaves and sentiment strip against it x.

Your card uses such pretty colors and the silver just adds to its beauty! Glue is an interesting idea...I might have to try your technique!!!!

I never thought of using glue, Sue, but why not? A case of using what you have and showing us that you can still make a beautiful card. I love the leaf sprig on the slimline panel.

The silver lines against the blue ink look so pretty and the plain white leaves make a bold contrast with the inked panel.

Great idea to use the glue pen to get those pretty silvery veins. I love the soft blue background. This is such a pretty card!
