Another Gorgeous Foiled Leaves Card

Here is another of Jackie's Hot Foiled creations! In addtion to the Lustrous Leaves Hot Foiled Dies and the Framed & Fabulous Hot Foil Dies, this one uses the gorgeous Botanical Glow Hot Foil Die, and the Reverse Foil Die. The leaves used in this one are left over from the previous card, as are the "strip" sentiment! Another, gorgeous card!

Measurements:

Very Vanilla: 1/2 sheet, 4" x 5 1/4", 2 1/2" square (foiled & die cut circle), 3 1/4" square (reverse foiled scalloped circle)
Golden Glow (N): 1/4 sheet
Old Olive: 1/4 sheet
Basic Black: 1/4 sheet
Copper Foil (N)

To Make This Card:

I began by hot foiling all the components first. So, I began with the Very Vanilla layer Hot Foiled in Copper Foil with the Botanical Glow Hot Foiling Die.
You can, then adhere that to the folded Very Vanilla base.
Next, "Reverse" Hot Foil the "scrap" from the previous card, the scalloped circle piece, it's a more "solid" image. It's a gorgeous solid copper image!
Then, die cut it with the corresponding die. Set aside.
Now, Hot Foil the medium decorative circle onto the Very Vanilla square, and then die cut with the small dots corresponding die. Adhere that to the center of the solid Copper scalloped circle.
Next, either hot foil, or use the foiled remaining leaves from the previously foiled Lucious Leaves.
And, lastly, either hot foil, or select from the previous card, the Sweetly Sentimental Hot Foil words. These are always nice to have ready to go, in several color combinations, for your projects.
Select a sentiment from the Fabulous & Framed stamps and stamp onto the Very Vanilla circle near the center of the circle. I stamped in Early Espresso, but any color will work.
Then, add this piece to the card front.
Next, add 2 leaves of your choice, topped with a foiled sentiment that coordinates with your stamped sentiment.
Finish with a Linen Thread bow, and a few scattered Iridescent Pearls.

Gorgeous Framed & Fabulous/Luscious Leaves Hot Foilded Card

The next few cards were shared by demo Jackie Bolhuis at my event in Michigan. She designed a series of cards that focused on the new Hot Foiling Machine and dies. She used the Copper Foil, the Framed & Fabulous Hot Foil Bundle (be sure to check out the awesome words), Luscious Leaves Hot Foil Die, Botanical Glow Die, and Linen Thread. There are also various Hot Foil dies used as well! This is the first one I tried! The decorative, nested circle dies in the Framed & Fabulous Hot Foil Bundle are just that...FABULOUS! You foil them, die cut, them and layer them ins so many ways. Just beautiful. I would HIGHLY recommend this bundle!

Measurements:

Very Vanilla: 1/2 sheet, 4" x 5 1/4", 3 1/4" square (scalloped circle)
Petal Pink:1/4 sheet (scalloped circle)
Golden Glow (N): 1/4 sheet
Old Olive: 1/4 sheet
Basic Black: 1/4 sheet
Copper Foil (N)

To Make This Card:

I began by hot foiling all the components first. So, I began with the Very Vanilla layer Hot Foiled in Copper Foil with the Swiss Dots Hot Foiling Die.
You can, then adhere that to the folded Very Vanilla base.
Next, Hot Foil the large, stitched circle die in the center of the Petal Pink piece.
Then, die cut it with the corresponding die.
Now, Hot Foil the medium decorative circle onto the Very Vanilla square, and then die cut with the corresponding die. Adhere that to the center of the Petal Pink scalloped circle.
Next, hot foil all the Luscious Leaves onto the Old Olive and Golden Glow quarter sheets of cardstock. Die cut with coordinating die. You will only use 1 of each color!
And, lastly, hot foil the Sweetly Sentimental Hot Foil words onto black cardstock with Copper Foil. These are always nice to have ready to go, in several color combinations, for your projects.
Select a sentiment from the Fabulous & Framed stamps and stamp onto the Very Vanilla circle near the bottom of the circle. I stamped in Early Espresso, but any color will work.
Then, add this piece to the card front.
Next, add 2 leaves of your choice, topped with a foiled sentiment that coordinates with your stamped sentiment.
Finish with a Linen Thread bow, and a few scattered Iridescent Pearls.

Foiled Buffalo Check & Pumpkins

I love this combination of the copper foiled background and the seasonal pumpkins! The background is foiled in copper with the new Buffalo Check Hot Foiling Die. The focal point is that fun gate from the Painted Pumpkins and a combination of die cut and stamped pumpkins! I just love it! (The bottom picture shows the shine!)

Measurements:

Petal pink: 1/2 sheet, 1/4 sheet (foiled check)
Petal Pink 2-Tone cardstock: 3" x 4" (stamped pumpkins)
Basic White: 4" x 5 1/4" (inside), 5/8" x 3 1/8" (label)
Cajun Craze: 4" x 5 1/4"
Crumb Cake: 3 1/4" x 3 1/2"
Painted Patch DSP (N): 2 die cut pumpkins
Copper Foil (N)

To Make This Card:

Hot foil 1/4 sheet of Petal Pink with the new Buffalo Check Hot Foil die and Copper Foil. Note: I found that it's a little tricky to foil the Buffalo Check because of the distinctive lines and the cut edges of the cardstock. So, I foiled a little larger piece in case I needed to trim it even!
Adhere Cajun Craze layer to the folded Petal Pink card base. Then, trim the foiled layer to 3 3/4" x 5" and add to card front.
Next, die cut "gate" from Crumb Cake. Remove "post" and adhere to card front.
Then, select 2 "petal pink" die cut pumpkins, set aside.
Now, stamp 2 pumpkins in Cajun Craze onto 2-tone Petal Pink Cardstock. I chose the side that matched the die cut pumpkins best. Then, die cut with corresponding die, and select 2.
Arrange pumpkins onto "gate".
Stamp sentiment in Crumb Cake ink onto White label. Set aside.
Tie a bow of Linen Thread, and adhere it to the corner of the label and then add to front with Dimensionals.
Finish with Painted Patch Dots.

Surprise Inside Pop Up

From the outside, this card just looks like a nice, ordinary card! But, open it up, and there is an awesome surprise inside! To say nothing that it uses the gorgeous Sunflower Fields DSP, just perfect for the fall season! It isn't as hard as it looks! You just need to make sure the mechanism is folded right! This particular design was created by Frenchie.

Measurements:

Golden Glow (N): 1/2 sheet, 1 1/2" x 5" (mechanism)
Secret Sea: 4" x 5 1/4" (front), 4" square (pop up), 1" x 4" (front strip)
Very Vanilla: 4" x 4 1/4" (inside), 5/8" x 2 1/2" (sentiment)
Sunflower Fields DSP (N): 3 3/4" x 5", 3 3/4" square) (Golden Glow Sunflowers), 1 1/4" x 5 1/2", and 3/4" x 4" (Light Golden Glow print)

To Make This Card:

Let's create the Pop Up Mechanism first.
Take the 1 1/2" x 5" mechanism piece and score @ 1/2" the full length of the strip.
Along that score line, measure in 1" from the left edge and make a mark (see above).
Along the top edge, measure in 2" from the left edge and make a mark.
From the top-left corner, score a diagonal line down to the 1" mark.
From the 2" mark at the top, score a daigonal line down to that same, 1" mark. These two diagonals form a "V" meeting at the point on the score line.
Cut off the bottom-left corner (see above) - the small rectangle below the score line and to the left of the 1" mark. (Shown in purple above).
Fold along the scored lines: the "V" folds inward, creating the pop-up mechanism.
To create the pop-up inside, place adhesive onto the outside "triangle", with this space folded up. Adhere to "inside" of card with the "side" edge following the top edge of the inside of the card, and the "top" edge of the strip following the center crease of the card.
Next, place adhesive on the long 1/2" edge. Close card, with angles into place and 1/2" strip will adhere to the inside back of the card.
Voila! Check to make sure the "mechanism" pops.
To finish the rest of the inside, adhere the Secret Sea piece to the flipped up long area. Note: don't adhere it to close the the center fold of the card.
Then, add the DSP piece to the square.
The Vanilla piece gets adhered below, and I added a die cut "sunflower" to the bottom edge.
On the inside left side, I added a contrasting, but coordinating piece of DSP.
Now, for the front. Adhere the Secret Sea layer. To that, add the DSP.
Then adhere the DSP strip to the Secret Sea strip.
Tie a Secret Sea bow around this piece, and adhere to the center of the card front.
Finish the front with sentiment stamped in Secret Sea ink, and place onto strip. And scattered Secret Sea Gems.
