Let sit to dry for a bit then you can use to cut, punch or decorate a card or scrapping page (don't let touch photos on scrap page unless on acid free card).
It's cheap and you can make as big or as little a piece as you like, I did this for a card this last weekend.
This method can be used with any foil based wrapping, I've just done a really pretty christmas card using red wrapping foil then dry embossed (embossing not necessary though.
