No Peel Foiled Ponsettias

Hello fellow cardmakers! I have a pair of Christmas cards that I'm sharing today, featuring products from Erin Lee Creative. Erin is having an end of summer sale and there are a couple coupon codes  available. I believe they're stackable as well! The markdown section is 60% off with coupon code SUNSET at checkout, and 20% off all other products with coupon code AUGUST. I'm not sure when this sale ends, so don't wait if you see something you like.

 Scroll down and I'll tell you about this no peel foil technique for my poinsettias.

I've been foiling all the things lately and stumbled upon what I'm going to call the "no peel foil technique". 

I stumbled upon this by first trying to foil some cardstock, using just my dies with my glimmer machine. I was able to achieve this, by the way. After I peeled off the lining on one of my die cuts, I actually decided I like my cuts with the  top lining intact even better!

 

In order to keep the lining intact, I need to change things up. So, I laid down an adhesive sheet on white cardstock, laid down some pastel foil and burnished it. Burnishing is simply using a bone folder or even a credit card to rub across your adhesive foiled cardstock. 

Now, I can die cut my foiled cardstock and the lining will not peel off  after die cutting. I love the shiny, glossy look! It's gorgeous in person.

The Jumbo Poinsettia Die from Erin Lee Creative, is the die set that I'm using today. It's huge, as you can see, and is a lovely focal piece for an A2 sized card.

I also created an ink splattered backdrop for my Poinsettia, splattering my Ranger Ink Kitsch Flamingo Distress Spray Stain on a trimmed panel. I find the easiest way to get really nice splatters, is to unscrew the bottle and tap the droplets all around from the feeder tube.

I did some bulk foiling recently and shared shortcut tips on my social media. I chose two sentiments for my pair of cards, one in a silver foil and one with black foil. I used the ELC Christmas Greetings hot foil sentiments plates and dies, along with my Glimmer hot foil system.

 My backdrop panel, layered poinsettia blooms and sentiment are all popped on adhesive strips for added dimension. Let me know if you have any questions, in the comment section!

Have a great day!

Terri
