{Clean and Simple} – Foil

Hello everyone!!!  It’s CASology Tuesday!!  We are back with another Clean and Simple Cue Card just for you!!

Take a look at my card:

Yay Dies

For this card, I used Concord & 9th Yay Dies set to create this card. It was so easy like 1-2-3!

Here’s how I created this card:

Die cut Concord & 9th Yay Die using Altenew Mini Blossom Die Cutting Machine to cut a piece of Thermoweb PeelnStick Toner Sheet and a piece of fun foam.

Deco Foil PeelnStick Toner Sheets

Then place a piece of Thermoweb Deco Foil Jada on top of the PeelnStick Toner Sheet and use the Cricut Easy Press (setting: temp 295 , time 15 sec) to attach the foil to the toner sheet.

Peel the paperbacking off of the foiled toner sheet and place it on top of the die cut fun foam. Use Liquid Mono Adhesive to adhere the die cut to the card front.

Round the corners using We R Memory Keepers Mini Envelope Punch.

{Clean and Simple} CASology 220 – Cure

Hello everyone!!  It’s CASology Tuesday!!  We are back with another Clean and Simple Cue Card just for you!!

This week’s cue card:

week-221-cure

Take a look at my card:

big-hugs-cas

I thought this Neat & Tangled Big Hugs die was perfect for this challenge.  When I think of “cure”, you can’t help but to think of big hugs.  I love the size of this die along with the font used to create it.

Here is how I created this card:

I die cut the sentiment out of  Thermoweb Deco Foil Peal and Stick Toner Sheets. Then I cover the die cut with Deco Foil Pewter Transfer Sheets and ran it through the Royal Sovereign Laminator.  Nice and easy!!

I love how foil looks on my cards.

For the rest of the card, I used Neat & Tangled Scalloped Nice and Neat Dies to cut out We R Memory Keepers Urban Chic pattern paper. I adhered the pattern paper to the black card base using foam tape.

Can you see the Pewter Deco Foil?  So pretty in person.

a2z Scrapbooking Birthday Blog Hop Bash

a2z Birthday

Hello everyone, and welcome to a2z Scrapbooking Birthday Blog Hop Bash!!! You should be arriving from the fabulous Kristina’s blog . If this is your first stop you’ll want to begin at a2z Scrapbooking blog so you don’t miss out on any of the fun and beautiful creations we are sharing today.

I’m super excited to share my card with you today.  I’m bursting out of the seams with excitement.  You want to know why?  Well, check it out:

(Photographing this technique was a bit of a challenge because when I stood the card up the foil looked black so I had to lie it down.)

Happy birthday foilHappy Birthday foil 2 Happy Birthday Foil 3

Yes, Foiling!!!  I did some foiling!!  It was super easy after I got the hang of it!!  I messed up a couple of pieces of cardstock but what is perfection without errors!!!!

My first mistake was putting the foil on my image upside down.  LOL!!!  I ran it throught the laminator a bunch of times and couldn’t figure out what to do.  Then it dawn on me to turn the up face side up!!

Magic!!!  I ran it thought the laminator a couple of times to make sure I was doing it right and BAM!!!  It was!!

Now I need every color they own.  Especially since I bought a laser printer and laminator just for this technique!! Don’t judge me!!!!  I’m addicted to crafts.

So how did I create my card:

1. I printed my Hero Arts Special Birthday Digital image and sentiment from my new Brother Laser Printer. There is a newer model to this printer but I didn’t need up to date since I will just use it to foil.

2. I cut my Deco Foil sheet to fit the size of my sentiment and image.  I place each piece on top of the sentiment and images, gold side up and ran it through my Royal Sovereign 9-inch Laminator. I used regular printer paper to run my cardstock through the laminator.

Note: a2z Scrapbooking will carry the Heidi Swapp Foil which has gold and silver on one sheet!

3.  I attached my foil cardstock to my black card base and that was it!!

Super duper easy.  What do you think?  Will you try foiling now?
