Good morning! I'm dropping by to share a couple more cards using the NEW Just for You Release from Simon Says Stamp! If you checked out my post for the Instagram Hop a few days ago, you might recognize this flower. Those cards used this new hot foil plate to hot foil on vellum - and it was so pretty! You can check that post out HERE for more info!
But...you know I couldn't go and waste all that lovely reverse foil - so these cards were the logical next step! The colors are a bit different - because I didn't use all of the vellum ones (the blue was a bit hard to see with those dainty lines on vellum) - but I loved it in the reverse.
I foiled the leftover foil from my original foiling using my Pinkfresh Solid Hot Foil Plate, then cut those panels into ovals using Nested Ovals dies. If you notice - the ovals are different sizes, because I only went to the edge of where the foil ended. I had cut my foil slighting smaller on the gold one, so that oval was smaller.
I mounted the ovals on white cardbases using my favorite Big Momma foam tape roll - I love it because it is a thinner size, so I can add dimension, but not too much dimension.
Next, I chose sentiments from the Sunshine and Rainbows reverse sentiments - perfect encouraging sentiments - and trimmed the ends into a banner shape before mounting with liquid glue over the ovals, leaving the ends floating free.
Next, I embellished with some Pinkfresh Glitter Drops - this first card in coordinating Aqua tones...
...and this second one in gold of course!
What do you think? Do you like to not waste your foil? I love having the Solid Hot Foil plate in my craft room to allow me to not only not waste that foil, but also to get two cards for almost the same work, and a completely different look as well!
