DIY Foil Transfer

Supplies:

– plain notebook (you could also use this for making your own cards or sprucing up an envelope) 
– double sided tape (I actually used glue squares that you would use for the back of photos)
– gold foil (or color of your choice)
– popsicle stick
– scissors

Cut out your design from the tape and adhere to the notebook. I stuck with a simple triangle cut out. Cover design with foil, matte side down, and press down firmly with the stick. Pull back the foil sheet for the finished product.

I’m definitely going to play around this more. My next project is to die cut letters from sticker sheets and foil monogram every plausible surface.

thanks melanie!
