Christmas Wishes

Another craft class you might enjoy is called “Pretty Poinsettia” (171477). For this class, you’ll need the Pretty Poinsettia bundle (168147). I also want to mention that it’s important to have the Impressions Plate (167767) as it gives the leaves and flower petals that beautiful textured look.

If you don’t have the Impressions plate, you can use a shim instead. Just make sure the shim is wide enough to apply enough pressure over the dies to create the texture. It doesn’t work quite the same way as the Impressions plate, but it definitely does the job!

I took inspiration from multiple designs in the class, it was fun to take the inspiration and make the designs my own!

Celebrate!

This is another card inspired by the craft class “Metallic Magic” (171482). Since I didn’t have the same designer series paper as in the class, I used some older ones from my stash and just made sure I got colors that matched. I glued the DSP paper to the card base and then attached the window sheet with some glue dots to the DSP. I placed the glue dots underneath where I was going to place the sentiment so you cannot see them and it gave the window sheet a floating effect. The “celebrate” sentiments are then placed on top of the window sheet where the glue dots are.

If you have any questions on how I did anything feel free to leave a comment or check out the Metallic Magic class that I have linked.

Thinking of You

This card is monochromatic which means it has only one color in different shades. The “thinking of you” sentiment was created with leftover pieces of rose gold foil that I used on other cards. This is why it has so many lines cutting through the words, they are not solid lines. It gives the card an unfinished look which I really liked and found to be very unique. If you don’t want to do it with the lines, just use a brand new piece of foil.

The butterflies say Thank You!

This is another card inspired by the same Metallic Magic craft class (171482) as the previous post. For the butterflies, I used layers 2 and 3 of the Butterfly Flight decorative masks (170076), which are essentially stencils, to add the different layers of colors on the wings and the Hot Foil dies (170045) for the golden accents. The butterflies are in between the window sheet and the designer series paper background. The “thank you” sentiment is placed on top of the window sheet along with some adhesive glitter dots. I love the wonderful look the window sheet adds to the card!

Golden Butterfly Birthday

I created this card based on the Metallic Magic craft class (171482) on the Stampin’ Up website. I didn’t have the same papers that they used in the class but I replaced them with papers I have in my stash that best matched the colors they used.

It was so much fun using the new Hot Foil system (170009). It takes your card to the next level!!
