Scratch and ..... shine!

Last night was the Ashtead Craft Club monthly workshop, and the theme was faux metal effects.

Decided to try the scratch foil board, which I have not used before.

You may recognise the packaging.  It has been around for some time with pre-printed designs, but is now available as blank boards. So it is more versatile, and fabulous with embossing folders.

Comes in both silver and gold foil effect, with a black waxy like coating.

Just cut into appropriately sized pieces, and use with embossing folders.  Once embossed, sand off the raised black areas.

Then die-cut if desired.





I think the finished effect is fabulous, and so easy to achieve.  Great for masculine cards too.

Another technique to file away for future use!
