Welcome back everyone! I have some clean and simple cards to share today using the Peony Foil Impressions and the Gemini Foil System.
I have a tutorial you can also view down below or HERE on my Youtube channel.
The Gemini Foil System takes foiling to a whole new level for me. There are other machines out there that do this as well but this is the system that I own. The Peony Foil Impression will not cut the flower out but rather leaves an impression on the card with your choice of foil color.
For my card pictured below, I used Gold Foil on Ivory card stock. With the Peony Foil Impression from Picket Fence Studios there is also an outline die. This allows me to cut out my foiled imaged, which I did.
I’m using Ivory card stock as my base and layered with Neenah Solar White. I added the cut out foiled image to the front of my panel with foam tape for dimension. My sentiment is heat embossed onto Black card stock with Brutus Monroe Gilded Embossing Powder. The Tiny Words stamp set was perfect for this. It provided a beautiful sentiment while still allowing the Peony to be the focus of the card.
I trimmed out my sentiment using the Sentiments Labels die and added to the front of the card with foam tape. For a little sparkle, I attached Ivory Jewels with the Simon Says Stamp Tacky glue.
My next card, I foiled the Peony in Gold but used Blue Denim card stock instead. Absolutely striking! This time I did not cut it out. I trimmed my Blue Denim card stock down to 4″ x 5 1/4″ and added to a White A2 size notecard.
I used the Tiny Words stamp set as before. I heat embossed the sentiment in Gilded Embossing Powder and die cut with the Sentiment Labels die. Then added to the front of the card with foam tape.
The possibilities are endless with these Foil Impressions and the foiling system. I was very impressed with how well the foiling came out. It’s so crisp and clean. Picket Fence Studios also has other impressions available that you can check out on their website.
Be sure to check out my video HERE on how to use the Gemini Foiling System. I go over just a few of the basics to get you started.
