Rectangle/oval Just Because With 1 Foil Accent Card

To begin with, I started by turning on the Glimmer Hot Foil System Platform. While the platform was heating up, I lined up over an A2 size white card panel the first 2 largest rectangles from the; Nestabilities Essential Rectangles Etched Dies set. You might be wondering why 2? So, let me explain you, the set comes with 8 dies which means that, 4 are meant for die-cutting while the other 4 are meant to add the intricate dotted edges. That being said, after I the dies line up, I ran them through my Platinum 6 Die Cutting and Embossing Machine along the white card panel.

After, I was done die-cutting the first card panel, I foam mounted it to an A2 top folding white card base and I set it aside. Meanwhile, I lined up over an A2 size white card panel the first 2 largest Ovals from the; Nestabilities Essential Ovals Etched Dies just as I did for the first panel to create the oval panel. Once, I had the oval die-cutting panel done, I lined up over it the second-to-last oval hot foil plate from the; Essential Glimmer Ovals Hot Foil Plates. Once, I had it lined up, I created a hinge with low-tack tape (Yana’s Technique) to secure the plate in place. Then, I cut with a sharp scissor a piece larger enough to cover the oval plate out of the Hot Foil Roll – Speckled Aura included in the; Glimmer Hot Foil 4 Rolls – Spellbound Variety Pack. Once, I had the piece I placed it in place, and I moved on to transfer the foil following the settings from the Glimmer Hot Foil Platform and Platinum 6 Die-cutting Machine to add the foil accents to the oval.

Right after when the beautiful foil accents where added to the oval, I foam mounted the oval to the card, and I finished the card off by adhering on the left side of the oval a floral cluster that I have previously foiled and die-cut using the; Foliage Border Glimmer Hot Foil Plate & Die Set and Organic Foliage Glimmer Hot Foil Plate & Die Set. To create more dimension, I foam mounted one of the sentiment that I had previously foiled with Glimmer Hot Foil Roll – Champagne on white cardstock. By the way this sentiment along with the other 2 used on today’s cards are from the new; More Sentiments Glimmer Hot Foil Plates which, is a new set to this collection.

Rectangle/oval Especially for You With 2 Foil Accents Card

For the second inspiration, I’ll start by skipping the explanation for the die-cutting process as, is basically the same as the first inspiration card. However, if you see closely in the image above you won’t only notice that, I have added a second foil accent by using the second-to-last plate from the Essential Glimmer Rectangles Hot Foil Plates.

So, once both foliage borders were foiled, I ran them through the die-cutting machine, and I stacked them both as shown above leaving the one with the foiled circle on top. Lastly, I foam mounted the stacked foliage to the card and I finish the card by adhering one of the 3 sentiments that I have foiled on white cardstock using the More Sentiments Glimmer Hot Foil Plates.

I hope this image explains better what I mean with 1 and 2 foil accents as, you can go so on and so forth not only adding layers but, also foiling all 7 plates in one card panel or you can line up the intricate dotted edges for a one layer look. Possibilities are endless with these sets.

For the third and last inspiration, I kept it simple by skipping flowers and leaves thus, I added more details for you to see what I meant in the previous example. So, for this example, I ran through the die-cutting machine a white card panel along with the largest die from the; Nestabilities Essential Squares Etched Dies. Next, I skipped the intricate dotted edges, and I went straight forward to add the accent foil by using the largest plate from the; Essential Glimmer Squares Hot Foil Plates. Once, I had the foil accents added to the square card panel, I adhered it with double-sided tape to a 4 1/4’’ x 4 1/4’’in card base.

Then, I lined up the fifth and sixth-to-last dies from the; Nestabilities Essential Squares Etched Dies to create a second detailed square die-cutting. Once, I had that done, I removed the intricate dotted edges die, and I ran once again the other square die to die-cut it this time out of gold cardstock this time. Lastly, when both square die-cutting were done, I stacked them both and I foam mounted them to the card.

For the final layer, I lined up the third, fifth and sixth-to-last dies from the; Nestabilities Essential Circles Etched Dies to die-cut them out of white cardstock. Because, I skipped the fourth die from the set, I was able to add foil accent so, I lined up the fourth plate from the; Essential Glimmer Circles Hot Foil Plates over the circle, and I foiled it in the same way that I did for the previous examples. Finally, I repeated the same thing as I did for the second square layer by adding a circle die-cutting that I created out of gold cardstock. To finish the card off, I foam mounted the detailed foiled circle to the card as well as the Thank you from Yana’s Sentiments Glimmer Hot Foil Plate & Die Set which, I had previously foiled and die-cut it out of white cardstock. Having the card finished, I hope you can see the elegant difference between Stamping Foiling with the Glimmer Hot Foil System and adding gold accents with gold cardstock to your die-cutting projects.
