and their first challenge is Vintage, so I thought I'd give it a try.
I just read about this technique in Tim Holtz's new book A Compendium of Curiosities Volume II.
He calls it Enameled Metals. It reminds me of old fashioned tin ceilings. After embossing the foil, I painted it with a green paint dauber then lightly sanded it when it was dry. Very cool effect! The image is from Gina K's Vintage Chic. The black border is a Spellbinders die as well as the ovals. Added some lace, because what is vintage without it?
Thanks for looking!
