Happy Monday my crafty friends.
Today I am sharing with you a trio of Valentine's Day cards featuring Spellbinders January Calligraphy Hearts Glimmer Hot Foil set.
This month's foil set also coordinates with the Small Die of the Month Lovely Card Creator, the Large Die of the Month Slimline Kaleidoscope and the Clear Stamp of the Month Sending Love Set.
CARD DETAILS
I think these cards are very simple and self-explanatory to recreate so I won't go into too many details. Like any other foiled card, these cards require a GLIMMER HOT FOIL SYSTEM. What I did was RED foil a variety of different colored cardstock using all 3 heart designs, and then used the coordinating heart die to cut them out. I did the same thing with the sentiments and then cut them into strips. The fun part was figuring out the design and layouts.
This first card was super simple. I used foam to pop the hearts up and then trimmed off any excess paper that hung off the edges. I then added a foiled sentiment and a few white pearl embellishments.
Again this next card was super simple. It's hard to see in the picture but I added some scorelines to the top white part of the card to add some texture and interest to the card. I then added the two love hearts on the sides and then popped up the one heart in the center. This design hides the transition of the paper.
The foiled sentiment was then added and then once again I used the white pearls as embellishments.
For the last card, I used the MODERN LINES GLIMMER PLATE to add SILVER foiled detail to the black cardstock piece. I then embellished the Calligraphy Heart further by adding some red and pink die cut flowers that also come with the set.
To the center of each flower, I then glued the same white pearls.
Keeping the color palette simple and limiting the supplies you use is a great way to create multiple coordinating card sets. Whenever I turn my HOT FOIL SYSTEM on I find it easier to create if my pieces are all foiled ahead of time. I also foil all the sentiments and cut them into strips. If you have any leftovers just keep them on hand for future projects (I store them in the die sleeve along with the dies). This will save you a little time next time you need a foiled sentiment strip!
