Sketch - Watering can on foiled background

Today starts a new sketch challenge over at Catch the Bug - we are now doing biweekly Anything goes challenges and biweekly sketch challenges and alternate weeks.

For this card I went with Rose Watering Can, cut with a Penny Black antique fram die.
Earlier this year I watched some videos on YouTube where foil and a laminator were used - there are several videos on this topic, just try and search "Foiling with a Laminator". It's really easy. To make my background I used a stencil, deco foil transfer gel and Heidi Swapp mint colored foil, and a laminator. This background was part of the first batch I made.
Lace and and ribbon from my stash, the sentiment came free with a magazine.


This card is also for:
Happy Little Stampers Stencils May - Anything Goes
Creatalicious Challenges - #211 Anything Goes + option: For a Woman

    Wow! You are always able to mix cute and simple images with something and making precious and stylish cards! This one is so striking with this look a bit vintage! The die you used for the panel looks so cool. Love the addition of the lace and ribbon and your laminated background is just gorgeous!!!!

    Fabulous card! I haven't tried to use foil with laminator, only with glues. This must look really shiny;-))m
