Rosy Love Card for Erin Lee Creative

I've been showcasing products from the new Erin Lee Creative release this week, and here's another. I've also been crushing on pink lately, and today is no different. This card features 3 different products from the new Birds of a Feather collection. Scroll down for creative details, plus my clickable supply list at the end. Plus, how you can get a discount!

First, let's talk about the frame. The Vintage Floral Hot Foil Frame & Die Set is one of the new products. I did some foiling with this frame, but saved the negative for use on this card. I took my negative sheet and used my solid hot foil plate with my Glimmer hot foil system. The foil I used is Spellbinders Espresso Bean and it was adhered to pink cardstock. 

Now if you don't have a solid hot foil plate, you can still adhere the negative foil! Just spray your cardstock with adhesive spray, such as Pixie adhesive spray from Thermoweb, allow to dry for a minute, then apply your negative foil over the sprayed cardstock, smoothing with a bone folder or pencil. For best results, do not peel off the top foil liner, leave intact! You'll have gorgeous shine! I'll link the spray in my supply list for those who wish to purchase.

I tried to get an image below, of the shimmer and shine from that foiling.

Next, are the roses from Vintage Rose Bouquet die set. The rose blooms and leaves were die cut with my Platinum 6 and pink paper from a paper pad. I did some ink blending around the edges with my Ranger Distress Oxide ink in Vintage Photo.

I also cut the large bouquet die with kraft paper, then layered my blooms and leaves on top, popping them up with adhesive foam. I did some paint splattering as well.

I did some digging through my scrapbook paper stash and found some paper with a pretty pink and purple sky. I trimmed it down and adhered it directly to the back of my frame. The frame dies for the Vintage Floral Frame actually come with an outline die and a die to cut out the inside of the frame.

 

Lastly, my sentiment is from the new Love Birds stamp/die set. I did some masking with tape to stamp the word love in pink. It's helpful to have a stamp positioner to use the mask technique. My final touch is a burlap string bow and button, hot glued over the stems of my paper flowers.

This would make a lovely Valentine, anniversary or wedding card. If you shop through any of my affiliate links for Erin Lee Creative on this blog post, you will get a 10% discount. Woo hoo!

Love Story Book Themed Card

I have another card to share for the Erin Lee Creative Birds of a Feather release. Today's card features the Vintage Book die set. I've created an open book, replete with paper trimmed page markers! I did some foiling, some ink blending and created a sweet little page turner, haha. Scroll down for all the details, with my clickable shopping supply list at the end.

 (FTC Disclosure: as an affiliate for various companies in the craft industry, I will receive a small commission for purchases made through my convenient affiliate links, at no additional cost to you.)

I'm also using the ELC Handwriting hot foil plate for this project. There are sooo many uses for this hot plate, and I've used it for the script in my "book".

So, first I created 3 die cuts with the vintage book die. For 2 of my pages, I trimmed off the decorative edging to create my pages, then foiled those pages with my hot plate and and Spellbinders Aura foil which is a shimmery gold iridescent foil.

 

 

Once my foiling was done, I did some ink blending along the edges and all 3 die cuts using Ranger Distress Oxide Vintage Photo ink and my blender brush.

The first foiled die cut was adhered directly to my blank book die cut. The second outline was popped up on top of both die cuts with adhesive foam strips.

(CONFESSION TIME - One thing I wish I'd done differently here? After photographing my final images and editing and doing all the prep involved to share on social media, I saw my card with new eyes and wished I had done some ink blending along the inside center crease of my book page. I think a little definition there would have been a really nice accent. Next time, right?)

For my outline sentiment and bird, I die cut these on white card stock and ink blended the edges with Ranger Distress Oxide ink in Kitsch Flamingo. My word die was cut with black cardstock and glued to my outline. Both elements were popped up on adhesive foam strips, as wel..

I also colored the birds eyes and beaks black, and the wooden branch with my OLO Markers. The bird dies actually leave an impression of the eyes when die cut.

Lastly, I created the page markers or page holders for my book, trimming from the same paper that I used for my background. I'll have that paper pad linked below as well. 

I also hot glued a half pearl embellishment that matched my color scheme, from an older Buttons Galore embellishment mix from my stash. It's somewhat of a copper color and coordinates beautifully! It was also needed to make sure my paper strips don't come loose.

There are also some glued clear sequin embellishments from my stash, scattered about on the card background.

 

Per the usual, I tend to create first and measure later. This card measures in at 4 1/2 x 6 inches. I could have scaled down a bit further but chose not to. I did score and trim my own card from 80 lb white cardstock.

Be sure and check out the entire new release, here! Just look for the "new" category. If you saw something you'd like to purchase, or want more product details, just click my affiliate links below, provided at no additional cost to you!

Have a great day! Terri
