Spellbinders Floral Reflection Release - Negative Foiling

The new Floral Reflections collection is live at Spellbinders! When I saw the products for this collection I immediately envisioned black on kraft cards. I try and listen to my instincts and I'm so happy with the results. I also loved creating a negative foiled focal point for one of my cards. Scroll down for a few creative details!

For my mini-slimline card, I began by foiling the top and bottom of my kraft cardstock with the Glimmering Just For You hot foil plate, angled just a bit. It took me a couple tries to figure out exactly where I needed to line up my plate for each foiling. I used the black hot foil and my Glimmer Hot Foil 
System.

 

Once my foiling was complete, I die cut black flowers and leafy stems using the new Sealed Wildflowers from the Floral Reflections collection, piecing them into my floral scene.

I have a reel explaining how this was done, here.





I also embellished my die cut blooms with glitter glue, then popped up my sentiment on adhesive foam. A little bit of black acrylic paint was dotted onto my card for a finishing touch.





For my second card, I embossed my kraft cardstock with the new Tile Reflections embossing folder. I love this design and when offered the opportunity to take it for a test run, it was a no-brainer!





I wanted my centerpiece to be this stacked layer of kraft and black cardstock, cut with the Floral Reflections etched dies and my Platinum Six die cut machine.


For the topper, I saved my negative foiling that I used on the previous card from the Glimmering Just For You hot foil plate.

This is soooo easy to do! This is where the new Solid Glimmer Floral Reflection hot foil plate comes in.

After your solid plate is hot enough on your Glimmer machine, lay down your negative foil, shiny side down, then cardstock, etc. (follow the standard hot foiling process).



You end up with a beautifully foiled negative image! 

I made a fun, super short reel spotlighting that topper, here.
