Special Foiled Card with Jowilna
Hi! Thanks for joining me on the Couture Creations Blog today.
Today I am showing you how I recycle all those foiled left-over pieces that are just so amazing.
I simply can't bare throwing away all those beautiful foil left-overs away after creating foiled elements. So I always have a plan to use them and turn them into quick cards.
Take a look how I use those pieces together with the Le Petit Jardin range to create my quick and easy cards.
step 1 - I can't bare to throw away my left-over pieces once I have filed elements to use. So as a typical crafter and maybe a bit of a hoarder I keep them and use them.
Step 2 - Adhere these pieces onto smooth white cardstock using a glue stick. Cover the area on your cardstock using glue, and then place the foiled piece onto the glued area and smooth it out with your palm.
Step 3 - Trim the cardstock piece to size and then add embossing using an embossing folder and your Go Cut and Emboss machine.
TIP: I like adding the embossing for 2 reasons. It adds interest, but it also forces the foil even tighter onto the cardstock ensuring it won't come loose ever.
step 4 - Stamp a sentiment onto the front of your folded card in black ink.
step 5 - Matt the foiled and embossed piece onto some patterned paper scraps.
step 6 - Cut out some extra foiled flowers and adhere them to the top of the foiled background piece.
step 7 - Adhere the foiled piece to the card above the sentiment.
Finish off your card with some paint splats and diamante.
And in a few easy steps you have recycled some of your foiled left-overs and created a gorgeous set of cards.
Until next time thanks for visiting
