And this is (hopefully) the last of my card parts for a while. (Don't get me wrong! I still have LOTS of card parts, but they are all neatly filed away in a binder in clear pocket sleeves.) I had used a Gina K Foil Mates sheet and purple foil to make the purple-on-white foiled piece. Then I took the left-over piece and foiled it on a piece of white cardstock I had printed black on my laser printer. That way I could use the whole piece of foil. The parchment paper that I used was a bit crinkly, though, and the foiling didn't work all that well. I just cut the pieces down to the best parts and put them on this card. I started by placing them on a piece of black cardstock. Then I trimmed down the black piece to make a thin border all around. The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink. I die-cut it and popped it up on foam squares.
Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!
I have seen some of the wonderful foil creations IRL...and I can picture what a stunner this card must look like! Great use of the positive/negative space on the foil.
ReplyDeleteA real "artsy" card. I like the irregular strips of the pretty pieces!
ReplyDeleteSpectacular the way it changes in the light! Love your design, too. It's been awesome catching up today!
ReplyDeleteYour foiling is pretty in the photos, but I'm sure it's way more impressive in person. The design of your card is unique, which makes it even more special. I love the look of foiled designs and sentiments. I haven't foiled in quite a while, but I should. I often print sentiments out with my laser printer, and I need to remember to foil some of them.
