As I mentioned yesterday, this week is all about the Heartfelt Hexagon Bundle and Gold Foiled Flower Cards & Envelopes.
Today’s tecnique is heat embossing and using a mask.
I cut the laser cut flap from the back of the envelope to use as a mask for this project. Make sure you have at least 1″ of the solid envelope paper to keep a clear margin over the cardstock.
TIP: Use a slightly larger than usual piece of cardstock for the heat embossed panel and tape it to your Glass Mat or grid paper. Then tape the mask over the cardstock. This will ensure the card and mask don’t slip around.
Then I tapped Versamark over the mask and sprinkled the gold embossing powder over the mask. Using the Embossing Additions Tool Kit is perfect for heat embossing.
Carefully remove the mask and use the Heat Tool to ‘melt’ the powder.
Then I turned the mask around and taped it in place. I left a space between the two masked areas. Repeat the heat embossing process.
Then I trim the heat embossed cardstock down to a size that worked for my project. Multipurpose Liquid GLue was used to adhere it to the card base.
The sentiment was stamped using the same embossing process. Then Ipunched it using the Heartfelt Hexagon Punch.
I wrapped a length of gold ribbon, from the Gold & Silver 1/8″ Trim Combo. behind the punched piece. It was added to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I took the trimmed embossed edges and used them inside the card and on the envelope.
Finally, I added some of the gold sequins, from the Neutrals Adhesive-Backed Sequins, to the card.
Tomorrow I will usng the Heartfelt Hellos Stamp Set.
Until then, happy stamping.
