Another Gorgeous Foiled Leaves Card #2

Here is another awesome card by Jackie Bolhuis! This one adds a layer of foiled Crumb Cake, and a Reverse Foiled leaf, as well as another beautiful foiled scalloped circle. These are just so fun, easy, and beautiful!

Measurements:

Very Vanilla: 1/2 sheet, 3 1/4" square (foiled & die cut circle), 2" x 3 1/4" (reverse foiled leaf)
Crumb Cake: 4" x 5 1/4"
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 Crumb Cake 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 leaf. I just cut around the leaf that I wanted to use, which was the "largest" leaf. Reverse foil onto piece of Vanilla with the Reverse Foiling Die. Then, die cut with Lustrous Leaves 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 front of card.
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 bottom of the circle. I stamped in Early Espresso, but any color will work.
Next, add leaf over scalloped circle, as shown, and top with a foiled sentiment that coordinates with your stamped sentiment.
Finish with a Linen Thread bow, and a few scattered Iridescent Pearls.

Winter Adventure Surprise Pop-Up Card

Another unassuming card with a fun surprise inside! This is also a version from Frenchie, but with my own twist to it! I just love this bundle from the Online Exclusives, that will take us from Christmas into Winter!! And, it uses one of my favorite InColors - Peaceful Pine!

Measurements:

Peaceful Pine (N): 1/2 sheet, 1 1/2" x 5" (mechanism), 5/8" x 3" (label)
Basic Black: 4" x 5 1/4" (front), 3 1/2" x 4" (inside die cut), 2" x 3" (die cut trees)
Basic Beige: 4" x 4 1/4" (inside), 2" x 3" (die cut trees)
Crumb Cake:3" x 3 1/2" (snow shoes)
Alpine Winter DSP (N) (OE): 3 3/4" x 5" (Peaceful Pine w/ trees), 1 3/8" strip (Peaceful Pine Buffalo Check)

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, Die cut the "Scenic Frame" from the Winter Adventure Dies in Basic Black, as well as the 2 trees. The "Scenic Frame" can be "embossed" with the Impressions Plate. It really looks a lot better!
I added Wink of Stella to all the "trees".
Next, die cut 2 "Snow Shoes" also from the Winter Adventure Dies in Crumb Cake.
Let's "arrange" these pieces. Overlap the 2 "Snow Shoes" as shown.
I, then, added color to the retired Black & White Gingham Ribbon with a Lt Peaceful Pine Blend, and then tied a small piece around the "Snow Shoes", then add this piece to the "frame", as shown.
Next, center on the flip up and adhere. Also add the larger Black tree.
The Basic Beige piece gets adhered below. Stamp sentiment in Basic Black ink.
On the inside left side, I added a 1 3/8" x 5 1/2" strip of Peaceful Pine Buffalo Plaid DSP, along with the Small Tree.
The inside is done! Now, for the outside!
Attach Basic Black layer to the front, along with the DSP.
Next, add a 1 3/8" x 3 7/8" strip of Peaceful Pine Buffalo Plaid DSP to the front.
Die cut 2 trees from Basic Beige. Add Wink of Stella and adhere over DSP piece, as shown.
Now, emboss sentiment in Black Embossing Powder onto strip of Peaceful Pine. Add to card front with Dimensionals, as shown.
To finish the front, I added another colored Gingham knot near the sentiment, and scattered new, Snowflakes Gems.
For the inside, I added 2 black Neutral Dots.

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.
