Great technique... it makes me wonder if this adhesive could be used for foiling.. does the glued areas remain slightly sticky for a while and if so could foil on the sticky glued parts then rubbed on?

Just a thought...

So vibrant and pretty! I think emboss resist is one of my all-time favorite techniques! Great card!

Good technique. Wondered if foiling glue could be used then glitter or foil or flakes could be used first and then the ink applied? That could look really good. Also wonder if either matte or shiny glue could be used, dried and then brushos or similar used instead of blending ink? (would have to rub it off the glue before dry I guess ) Good technique with loads of possibilities. Thank
you

This is such a neat technique and I was anticipating that the adhesive would have to be removed but it didn't appear that you did. I hate to ask this when I know it's a Ranger product but can other glues do the same? I've never seen that product from ya'll on the streets. Thanks and great job on making such an easy to follow tut.
