You're GRATE!

Isn't this GRATE?!

I'm a little late in posting this to Newton's Nook Designs' latest Inky Paws challenge:
Jennifer posted a "grate" tutorial this week on how to emboss metal.  I thought I'd give it a try using just aluminum foil.
I adhered some tin-foil to a piece of card-stock and de-bossed that with a large-circle pattern (so that the circles are recessed).  
 Then I coloured the cute little grater from the "Just Say Cheese" stamp set, mounted it on a pinked circle and added it all to a top-fold card. Which I figured also looked a bit like a grater...

Enjoy your weekend, cheesy or otherwise!
Caroline

Sizzix pinked circles dies

  3. Ok, cards do not get any cuter than this one! I love your embossed silver paper and it pairs just beautifully with your sweet image and sentiment. Just too darn cute.
