Hello everyone,
The latest catalogue is now available so I have used some of the products on today’s card.
I stamped the bow from the Elegantly Wrapped stamp set (#168474) using VersaMark (#102283) and Gold powder from the Metallics Wow! Embossing Powders (#165678) on Poppy Parade card (#121694). This was cut with a die from the Elegantly Wrapped dies (#168480).
The Basic White card front (#166781) was dry embossed with the Swirls Of Magic Embossing Folder (#168179), then matted with Poppy Parade card and attached to the Basic White base card.
The 2 squares are cut with the Tile Garden dies (#168573) from Garden Poetry Designer Series Paper (#167113). These were taped together.
I used a die from the Bordered In Beauty dies (#167550) to cut the Gold Foil (#132622) “ribbons” and these were attached to the “present” with Mini Glue Dots (#103683).
“Happy Birthday” is from the Classic Greetings Hot Foil Dies (#170042) using Gold Stampin’ Hot Foil Rolls (#170066). This is using the Negative foil with the Reverse Hot Foil Dies (#170043). When I do any hot foiling, I then do the negative image so I will always have lots of spare foiled pieces ready to use. “Happy Birthday was cut with the co-ordinating cutting die from the set.
I find when using the reverse image, I get the best results using smoother papers. Basic White, White Willow and Two-Tone card all give great results. The shine on the foil made this hard to photograph but the gold foiling is not mottled as it appears on this photo.
The ribbon and sentiment were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). I made my own embellishments using the excess gold hot foil from around the sentiment. These were cut with a die from the Noel Tidings dies (#168457) and attached with Mini Glue Dots.
