Impression Obsession: Die Cut Obsession

The Impression Obsession Design Team have set aside a couple days a month to share some fabulous new Impression Obsession die projects! Have fun checking out what our Designers have made today. Today's participants can be found on the Impression Obsession Blog.

TOday i am featuring the Floral background die that I used to do some hot foiling on black card stock instead of die cutting along with the Thanks die that was used on glitter pink card stock.

I layered my foiled panel onto glitter paper to match the sentiment and then onto black top folding note card.

Quick, fun and easy!

For my card today I combined few products from the new release: 

Kobi makes a with and It's Your birthday stamp sets, along with Party balloons stencil and Speckled Sprinkles.

To make the card I started with piece of white card stock (4 1/4" x 5 1/2") and stenciled in the balloons using Reactive inks : Taffy, Berry Smoothie, Creamsicle and Fruit punch. Once done I stamped the greeting in black Versafine ink. 

I stamped Kobi with Intense black ink onto white card stock and colored with copics. Once done I die cut him.

Trimmed the balloon panel down to 3 3/4" x 5" and adhered Kobi using foam adhesive. 

I stamped the sentiment from Kobi makes a wish on Vellum using watermark ink, embossed in white, cut into a strip and adhered to the panel.

Next, I added some tine glue spots on the card and sprinkled some Speckled sprinkles. Let it sit for a minute and then shook off the excess. 

To finish off the card, I adhered the panel using black fun foam onto top folding black note card.

Picket Fence Studios: June Release is LIVE

It's another amazing release you don't want to miss.

Here are  my projects using some of this month's goodies

Impression Obsession: Old is New

Hi everyone,

Sometimes we get so busy with new released stamps that we forget about our old favorites. The Impression Obsession team has set aside a couple days a month to share some new projects using some great older stamps. You can see the list of today’s participants on the Impression Obsession blog.

For my card I used the Smile set along with the Smile die . To make the card I started by stamping the Spring Floral background in Versamark and embossing in clear ultra fine embossing powder. Next I used gold deco foil and run it though my laminator.I die cut the Sentiment from gold glitter paper. Assembled the card and used double sided tape to add gold strips on the side. (apply gold foil over the tape)

Spellbinders: Jane Davenport Hot Foil Glimmer Plates

Hi everyone,
Happy Friday. Today I have a few fun cards to share with you using some of the new Jane Davenport hot foil plates. I had so much fun foiling and ended up with few cards and more foiled images To be honest, foiling is addictive. ;)
I used the new Show Ponies Glimmer hot foil plates and Le Mystere Glimmer Hot Foil Plate and paired it up with the Glided Trimmings hot foil plate and Everyday Sentiments II Glimmer Hot foil plate.

For my first two cards I foiled the sea horses on coral and pink card stock and die cut them with the coordinating dies. I also foiled some of the sentiments from Everyday sentiments on black card stock and cut strips.
I assembled the elements on black panel and adhered to pink and coral note cards.

Next I foiled one of the sea horses and a sentiment on white card stock using Skybright foil, die cut (and cut) and assembled my card.

Last, but not the least is a card using the Le Mistere plate. I foiled it with pink foil on Plum card stock and die cut using the coordinating die. I hot foiled a sentiment with the same foil and trimmed to a strip. I cut piece of white card stock and foiled Gilded Trimmings border on the bottom. I adhered the strip and masque and added some Nuvo drops on the mask. Using fun foam, I adhered it to Plum note card to finish it off.
