It was my brother's birthday recently and this is the card I made for him. My background started off with a dictionary page and then I glued aluminum foil overtop to give it more texture. There are spots where I sanded the foil off to expose some of the dictionary page. I'm quite happy with way it turned out.
Here is a list of the supplies I used:
- acrylic paint (Golden Fluid Acrylic)
- aluminum foil
- chipboard
- dictionary pages
- gesso (white)
- microfiche (you could use old photo film if you don't have this)
- mod podge (matte)
- sandpaper
