Hot Foiled Encouragement Love Card

I haven't given enough love to some of my newer products from Erin Lee Creative. Luckily, I had the day off from work today. You know.... the job that pays the bills?  Haha. It was a very crafty day, getting lots done, including some hot foiling. I adore hot foiling! We all know, it can be problematic to get decent photos of foiled cardstock. Lighting is tricky as is the case with today's card.  Not to worry though. Scroll down for more

As a designer, I generally don't foil much with silver toned foils because of photographic issues. However, I'll foil all the things for my own personal use just because it's so gorgeous in person. Since I can't quite capture the beauty in a front shot, let me share this 15 second video that I posted in my Instagram Stories. 

I've spent so much time talking about photography, now let me share a few details about this card.

I'm using two different hot foil plates from Erin Lee Creative on this project. The Burst hot foil plate was a new release that came out right before Easter and I initially purchased it to make a few Easter cards .  I thought it would look really cool to use the Burst plate for some partial foiling on my card panel.

I basically offset my foil and cardstock when hot foiling, moving my hot plate around on my Glimmer Hot Foil System, as needed, to keep everything within the confines of my Glimmer surface.

The other hot foil plate is called "Loved" and I purchased it solely for one of the sentiments included in the set. You can view that card here, if you missed it. Because this set has so many wonderful words of encouragement, I definitely wanted to get more use out of it. 

I foiled my sentiment with pink hot foil. Also, underneath my card panel is a sheet of adhesive foam which I also foiled. Hot foils can definitely be used on adhesive! Both the silver and pink hot foil are from a Spellbinders 4 pk set. Check out my supply list at the end of this post.

Lastly I embellished my surface with some sequins and some cute acrylic hearts that a crafty friend of mine made at Lacey Ann Designs.

Rainbow Card with Hot Foiling

Hello cardmakers. I absolutely adore hot foiling and when I saw that Erin Lee Creative came out with a new set of hot foil plates with one of my favorite sentiments of all time, I snatched it right up. If you're not into hot foiling, you're in luck because there's a matching stamp set as well!

The LOVED hot foil plate and die set includes 6 different sentiments and outline dies. These work very nicely with the Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil System which is the tool that I used today, along with Spellbinders silver hot foil.  

There's a huge sale going on right now at ELC too. The A2 Rainbow Cover Plate that I'm using today is part of that sale and is 70% off, less than $7.00 at checkout! It won't last long so hop on over and add this beauty to your cart!

A few creative tips......I embellished my clouds with Nuvo Dream Drops. It's a gorgeous irredescent color. My clouds on both corners  were also popped up with adhesive foam for a little added dimension. Also, the papers that I used today are the Craft Consortium brand. One last tip.....I used a corner rounder for the top edges of my card.

I've been in a pastel mood lately and love how this happy card turned out. It would make a lovely encouragement card but I think it would easily make a sweet baby shower card as well. What do you think? You can go so many different directions with the new LOVED release. Click on any of my affiliate links below to view more product information or to do a little shopping. Thanks for stopping by and happy crafting!
