Timeless Tidings Tarnished Foil Technique

Today's project is a card I designed for my Technique Tuesday Class. This month we focused on the Tarnished Foil Technique. Tarnished Foil Technique is a way of layering metallic embossing powders and darker inks over dry embossed metallic foil paper to achieve a worn or aged metallic look.

I first learned about this technique from Melissa Kerman. However, I am not certain if she is the originator of this technique or if she learned it from another stamper.

The Tarnished Foil Technique is too striking to cover up, so I wanted to create a card that made the technique the focal point. I came up with this Christmas present card using the Tin Tile Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (DTIEF) and the Timeless Tidings stamp set.

I absolutely am in love with original tin tile ceilings, especially tiles with a darkened patina! I even tried to convince my husband to add tin tiles to our decor! The Arts and Crafts style and the Victorian style is right up my alley. So, I was beyond thrilled when Stampin' Up! came out with a tin tile embossing folder!

Look how incredible the copper, gold, and silver blend together! The Jet Black StayzOn Ink distressed the tile present even more.

The Merry Merlot and Copper Reversible Ribbon is a perfect addition that ties beautifully with the Merry Merlot cardstock and the Copper Foil Paper!
