Blue balls? No, it’s been surprisingly warm lately, thank you for asking though.
Anyway, here’s the layout and the card that was inspired by it.

LOL John, you always seems to make me laugh, thank you so much for that.
Fabulous card, great lay out and you probably hear this more; I will use this also for my Christmas cards, I love it!
John don’t you have anti static powder?
Great to avoid those little bits around your embossed foiling.
Speaking of the foiling, I was glad that you showed how to with the wow powder. I always thought you had to let it cool down to get sticky. I have one but still didn’t use it, now I see how easy it is, I certainly will.
Thank you so much for sharing your great inspiration, stay safe and have a wonderful weekend.

I thought I had shown the anti static bag in this video but perhaps I edited it out. I’m sure I used it though. Even then, the heat from the heat tool heated the card and so some heat activated foil still transferred. Maybe it would be better with contact foil instead?

Hi John, sorry for my ignorance and probably the lack of English words, but I don’t know what you mean by contact foil.

It is a foil that does not require heat. If you touch it to a tacky glue, it will work.

Oké that’s handy also. Thank you for the answer John❤️
