Hi there from a cold wintery night here in NZ. I recently got a new hot foil plate from Altenew called Vibrant Florals and it's co ordinating stencil. It's a beauty - quite large too.... so I pulled out the Go Press and Foil machine on Monday and some WRMK's Rose Gold Foil and put it through it's paces...I managed to make three cards -
I placed the Hot foil plate in the middle of a half sheet of 8.5" x 11" card - foiled and then used the stencil to colour. I then cut the panel in half to get two panels 4.25" x 5"
The second one used the smaller portion of the foiling. The one was trimmed slightly and matted onto blue card. The sentiement used was from Altenew's Just a Number stamp set. I then added lots of Navy blue ink splatters.
And of course, I could not waste the foil left over. I have the Pinkfresh solid foil plate and heated it up and added the foil to some card.
I trimmed the panel down and matted onto some off white card before adding to a white base. I used a Spellbinders foiled sentiment die cut with a Spellbinders oval die. Have to say it's very difficult to photograph foiled cards especially on a winter's afternoon.
Thanks for visiting today.

Three foiled beauties, Dawn! Love that the floral plate has a matching stencil; just love how you colored the panel and split into two! So elegant with the outline on card three too!!
What beauties Dawn - these are exquisite cards - i especially like the third one :) Maybe I am a covert shimmer-and-shine lover?

I don't really understand the technique yet, but the result is stunning. Now I have to take a closer look at this technique.
So beautiful Dawn, I really want a hot foil machine, gorgeous floral plates and cards..
Luv CHRISSYxx
all are lovely, Dawn but really like the last one - just so CAS and elegant!
Wow--you've really gotten the foiling down to a science! These are all beautiful, but I especially like the first one!
