The Garden Silhouette Hot Foil dies used with the Hot Foiling System and Gold Foil used to make a striking card for a friend from Stampin' Up!

Negative Garden Silhouette Card

Having made the Garden Silhouette card  – see blog post on the 10th July, using the new Hot Foil System I was left with the waste foiled, negative image which I was reluctant to just throw away.

Colours used in this card are:

 

I created the negative garden silhouette card using the following supplies:

Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” on the long side
Calypso Coral – 5½” by 3¾”
Basic White – 4¼” by ⅞”
Basic Black – 4¼” by ⅜”

 

I took the negative (waste) piece of Gold Foil and used a combination of my Trimmer and sharp Scissors to cut down the edges leaving a thin border.

The Foil was then lifted and carefully placed onto the layer of Calypso Coral card leaving a small border. My largest Clear Block was carefully placed on top. When the block was lifted off the foil had stuck to the card panel. I mounted the panel onto the Thick Basic White card front on Dimensionals.

A fault line card made using the Painted Lavender stamp set and dies with the Perennial Lavender designer series paper (dsp) from Stampin' Up!

Fault Line Card – Technique Tuesday Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Technique Tuesday Blog Hop where we are sharing projects featuring tearing techniques. I have seen lots of ‘fault line’ cards and thought I would give it a try using the Perennial Lavender dsp.

Colours used in this card are:

 

To recreate the fault line card, you will need:

Gorgeous Grape card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Shaded Spruce card – 5½” by 3¾”
Basic White card – 4” by 3⅝”
Perennial Lavender dsp – 4” by 3⅝” x 2 – one patterned and the other plainer
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Basic White and Shaded Spruce card

 

I began by taking the plainer piece of designer series paper (dsp) and tore it at an angle from side to side. The larger of the 2 pieces was the torn again from side to side. I wanted the white core of the patterned paper to show on both pieces hence having to tear it twice. These pieces were then glued to the top and bottom of the patterned piece dsp leaving a wide strip of the pattern visible. The overhanging dsp was then trimmed off.

This step was repeated with the 4” by 3⅝” panel of Basic White card. This time I lined up the dsp on my Grid Paper and the torn panels adhered to the top and bottom until the whole piece measured 5⅜”.

Using Gorgeous Grape ink, I stamped the sentiment from the Hugs & Healing stamp set in the lower right corner and adhered the whole piece to the Shaded Spruce layer. This was then mounted onto the card front on Dimensionals.
