FOIL-EDGED CARDS & ENVELOPES

Sometimes we need to make quick and simple cards but we still want them to look special, which is were the gold foil-edged cards & envelopes come in handy.

This card is quick and easy to make using a little designer series paper and some gold embossed stamped images.

The berries have been coloured in with the real red Stampin' Write maker to create bold coloured berries which give a lovely contrast to the gold embossing.

To see how I made the card, check out the video below.

In no time, you will have yourself a handful of cards to give to friends and family.




Until next time, happy crafting.

INTERNATIONAL BLOG HIGHLIGHTS: WEDDINGS

Today I am joining in with the International Blog Highlights. The theme this time is: WEDDING.

Weddings are often an elegant occasion, so with this in mind my main focus is gold embossing.

The medallion is from the Moroccan Nights stamp set, which is the focal point for both my card and curvy keepsake box.

The sentiment for this card "You're Invited" is made from letters in the Brushwork Alphabet, embossed in gold on vellum. I used some gold circles from the Metallic Enamel Shapes to add a little bling to the sentiment.

The thank you favour uses the same stamp from Moroccan Nights, heat embossed in gold and then cut out using the Curvy Keepsake Box thinlits. The "thank you" sentiment on the box is from the Thoughtful Banners stamp set.

Please note that the 2017 Retirement list was released yesterday. The Moroccan Nights stamp set and the Curvy Keepsake Box thinlits are both in this list. If you are wanting to purchase either of these items, you need to get in quick as they are only available while stocks last. Go to my shop to purchase them now.

Thanks for joining me today, if you love my project please vote for my projects here. If I am lucky enough to be in the top 10, I will be asked to join an International Blog Hop.
