I love foiling so I'm happy to do multiple challenges with it. Today I used the Cosmic Shimmer gilding flakes with the Cosmic Shimmer glue.
This is also for this week's FS. Here is Ankita's card: Ink Blending and Ink Mixing using Distress Inks by glitter.doodles at Splitcoaststampers
I used triangles instead of circles and my ink blending is the bottom piece of the triangles, using alcohol inks in similar colors to what she used (you can see the blue color in the bottom left). The top layer of the triangles is cut from the silver mirror paper. There is another even wider layer. I think I need to look up some ideas on how to use these dies; they aren't quite what I expected. Ankita, you have a wonderful gallery, everything is exquisite. Why are there so many good painters and colorers on this site?????? Amazing!

I do love me those gilding flakes, and I know how gorgeous this must look in real life. I like that you used them on pink, I don't think I often use them on colour except as a frame. And those geometric angles are super.

Wow, what a dramatic card, Jean! The triangles are striking behind the birthday sentiment. Can't wait to see you use them on something else. Thanks for playing in my challenge.
