I had another go in trying to foil on a gelliprint with a die and had even less success with a clean foiling than last time but again I decided it didn’t matter and I loved the result enough to make a card with it!
I used some old Spellbinders dies and purple foil and it was on quite an intense gelliprint. You can see some of the detail of the dies but also the over foiling on the right hand side in particular.
I added it to a mount of lilac card and then wrapped it with ribbon.
Next I took a white die cut oval and then die cut the sentiment three times to stack it up. A die like this cuts so well on my Platinum 6 machine – my old Big shot wouldn’t have had a chance cutting something so fine. I stacked it up so it was quite dimensional and then glued direct to the oval die cut.
I added that with foam adhesive for dimension over the ribbon and then die cut the purple dragonfly. I coated it with glitter glue and then added that to the top front of the card.
I love how fun this is. I distressed the edge of the panel and then added it to the card blank made from the same colour card.
Inside I added a tiny slither of the background plus a layer of white and lilac as the card wasn’t thick and needed a little strengthening.
I am falling in love with the foiling – still need to perfect my technique but love the shine and the intricate nature of the foiling you can get – I also love it against the mixed media grunge of the gelliprint – it makes a nice contrast.
Happy crafting!
