Eureka Stamps Challenge # 175 - Use Something New

New Challenge theme this week is at Eureka Stamps

In Celebration of our new year
Use Something New - please tell us what was new

For my card I used: 8603(543) Flower Background

 &  25401 Happy Birthday Vertical

I try to use something new for our challenge and the other ones I was planning to participate and got out the new mini Minc I got for myself during December:

 As you can see the foil transfer didn't really work, It just made my letters and balloon glossy but but holographic as I wanted them:

 I don't know what happened, I tried using different foils and different temperature settings and nada... I guess I will have to keep trying and use my old laminating machine for foil transfer for the time been.
I used my laser printer as I did before too... I'm so disappointed...

So I ended up using my Wink of Stella Markers for the balloon and some ranger distressing picked fence marker to light up the balloon background. As new Item I used a butterfly bling...
Thank you for checking my project out and hopefully I will have a better experience next time I use my mini Minc...
Have a wonderful blessed week,

Vicky
