I tried something new to me for this card. I watched a Jennifer McGuire video on foil a few weeks ago and ordered some Deco Foil Transfer Gel. I used it on this one. I cut the leaves with a die, then used the die-cut for a stencil, spreading the transfer gel on the card front. After it was dry, I ran it through my laminator with the copper foil. It adds a bit of dimension, but it's not nearly as smooth as just using the foil with laser-printed images. I do like it, though! I'm pretty sure the sentiment I used is from Stampabilities, but I'm not 100% sure.
That's an interesting technique. I hadn't heard of transfer gel. Another great card with that die!
ReplyDeleteThat's really pretty, and I like the dimension that the gel gives. I've not tried this yet. Maybe I'll have to order some transfer gel!
ReplyDeleteSo many things to try! It looks gorgeous to me. This particular die does double duty as a die or stencil, and it's perfect for the job. Gosh, I love it!
