Abstract
An arts and crafts material having a foil pattern imprinted thereon. In one embodiment, the arts and crafts material of the present invention includes a sheet of foil substantially uniformly adhered to a corresponding sheet of base material such as foam. Once the foil sheet is secured to the base material, the foil sheet is peeled back to disclose the foil sheet's coating transferred onto the base material. The base material is preferably resiliently compressible. Portions of the sheet of arts and crafts material maybe cut to form particular shapes such as body and tail portions of fishing flies.
