I mentioned a little while back I came across a blog post using the Minc machine for foil application... and I had said it should work with my hot laminator. And it does.

You do need a really good laser print (so I bought a new printer... cheap on Amazon.ca), and good foil which I purchased from Texas Craft "Papilio" in various golds and colors. These two cards are a couple more of the results. These use my own calligraphy for the tree which I mimic'd from something I saw on line.

I'm also using some sentiment stamps from Quietfire Design. ("Tiny Christmas Wishes" 3 pce set)

And it fits for these challenges:
Reasonable Ribbon  #130  silver and gold + ribbon
Our Creative Corner  monthly Dec Stars
Papertake Weekly  anything goes
TTCRD  #1 - 7 anything goes
Pile It On Challenge   #97 use red and green
