Patriotic crafts are so much fun!
And gold foil is so much fun too--and you don't need an expensive machine to do it!
Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is Liberty.
We can leave the politics of the nation out of this post and focus on the crafting.
Pick a quote, phrase or slogan that you love.
Print it out on a LASER printer.
I don't have one, so I went to my dads...thanks dad!
I got mine from Steals.com...they have lots of daily deals, so I scored this for cheap!
I got the Heidi Swapp Reactive foil...check here to see if they still have it!
on the print.
I wanted some parts in red, some in blue and the rest in gold.
I used small pieces of tape to hold the foil together.
As long as it is not directly over the print, it's fine...
This laminator is worth it!
I got this for my birthday 5 years ago and love it.
Worth every penny.
It leaves the shiny behind, right where the print was!
You can see some mistakes, but so awesome!
I just taped it to an interchangeable frame I use!
And this other fun Foil project I did!

I used foil like that years ago, and I believe it said you can also use a copy machine, as the toner is basically the same in laser printers and copy machines. I put it back through the laser printer to adhere the foil, though. I would imagine a household iron, without steam, could be used as well. Where there's a will there's a way!! :)
