One of my favorite techniques . . .

This Lace Frame 

is one of my favorite Gypsy Soul Laser Cuts frames.

You can find other frames here:

Gypsy Soul Laser Cut Frames

and you can use this technique on any

Gypsy Soul Laser Cuts chipboard.

Begin with your favorite piece of chip.

Paint it your favorite color.

For this project I used

Americana Celery in acrylic.

Let dry thoroughly.

Next you'll need a glue stick

plus

Prima Marketing Rub-On Foils.

I chose to use the Golden Girl Collection.

These rub-ons come in a tube.

5 per pack.

6" x 12" each sheet.

They are amazingly simple to use.

Take 1 sheet of foil and a glue stick.

Swipe the glue stick across the area where you

want the foil to stick.

I placed glue all over this frame but

the way the foil works with the glue

it could be hit or miss.

I love that about this as it makes the project look

vintage.

And you can always go back and add

more glue stick and foil.

Hint: 

The cheaper the glue stick the better.

I use UHU but that's a great adhesive

so it takes longer to dry

and gives me more work time.

But . . . 

it's best to let the UHU glue dry

for just a minute or so

before applying foil.

You won't have to wait for 

a bit of dry time

with other glue sticks.

Place the foil on top of the

sticky chip - 

colored side up.

I know we're used to using things

with the colored side down but this time

we want the pretty side up.

Rub with your finger

(not your nail, not anything sharp or it will cut through the foil)

Lift the foil and . . .

If there's not enough foil on the piece,

repeat all the steps again.

You can keep using the one piece of foil

until you don't see any more color left on the foil.

Hope you enjoyed this super easy technique.

Try it on other

Gypsy Soul Laser Cuts.

You won't be disappointed!
