I made this card for my sisters birthday, I don't think of her as a typical flowery girl (lady) but wanted something with a bit of colour. I embossed different colours of foil I have in my stash. Then put them together like patchwork on the card. I found that if I stuck sticky tape on the rear of the foil pieces as I worked out where they were going I could trim each piece to the size I wanted to fit the card front. I thought I had finished but it just didn't look right so I tried each section with a black line sticker. I think this made it pop.
Very gorgeous card Merry and the black liner really highlights the sections..Loz
