Wanna know something?

I had never tried Hot Foiling once up until recently.

When I saw Stampin' Up!s new Hot Foil System, my first thought was no, not for me, I won't use it enough.

Fast forward to today and well, here we are, with a Hot Foil Machine and I can't stop using it.

Did I really need another crafting machine...... No

However the better question is...Does this meachine deserve a place in my craft room and the answer is definitely YES!

I'm always looking for ways to step up my cards, to give them that wow factor.

This new Stampin Hot Foil System by Stampin' Up! helps me do that. So am I glad I purchased it? ......YES.

Is it worth the money? ........ YES. It's an investment.

I haven't used another foil machine to compare it to but from what I've found so far, its super easy to use and alot of fun!

 Ive learned so much and thats the fun part, experimenting and playing to find different looks and techniques.

I purchased this stunning bundle with the machine because I love the size of the Hot Foil Die. I decided to fussy cut it out, yes I know right, but I love how it looks layered on the Swiss Dots Hot Foil Die background.

All foiled in Gold on Night of Navy Cardstock.

The bundle actually comes with a stamp set too, so in that case, you would stamp the image first on your cardstock and then hot foil over the top. It doesn't have a cutting die to cut out the image which is why I fussy cut it out.

The little sentiment says "Just a Little Hello". That also comes in a set of several one line sentiments and you can foil them all at once and then die cut them out. I do need a bit of practise to get the image crisper.

This bundle makes for such an elegant card and gold with navy is stunning!

Happy Stamping!

There is something about Black and White. 

It's timeless, it never goes out of style and it goes with anything and everything. 

So this paper lends itself to so many possibilities.

The only problem with it is that it doesnt have coordinasting dies, believe it or not I had to fussy cut!!!! I KNOW RIGHT lol

This card was CASE'd from EMK Creations in the U.S.

I was looking for as design for my Colour Club cards and this was perfect. So yes I had to make multiple of these which meant lots of fussy cutting.

I just wanted to colour a small area of each flower vase I cut so I used the new Shimmer Brushes in the coordinating colours to match the cardstock.

Then layered some ribbon behind it and popped it up on a Vellum Circle piece.

Finished off with some bling of course and this design was made in all 5 colours for each colour club member.

I'm really happy with this card and I hope they liked it too.

Listen up card makers and memory keepers!!!

Ok so I'm just going to put it out there right now......This paper is STUNNING!

If you are a paper lover like me, you are going to want this for your collection.

A full 12x12" pack from Stampin' Up! also comes with it 2 full sheets of beautiful die cuts which I have used on this card.

Out of this years new In Color offering,. Hydrangea Hue is easily my fave closely followed by Golden Glow.

So when I opened these papers to see that Hydrangea Hue was a coordinating colour, I knew I was making somewhat of a Monochromatic card. It was easy to pair these with the new In Color Gingham papers from the recent Online Exclusive release.

It also turned out, thanks to the dies, to be yet another Stamp Free card. Which is a nice change when you don't feel like stamping.

I popped out a few of the dies from the sheet, it's really easy to do and layered to create this simple layout.

Then paired with a simple greeting from the Greetings For All Mix & Match Ephemera Pack.

I was undecided as to whether to colour that in but in the end decided to leave it.

I absolutely love this card and will be making some more with all the die cuts from the paper pack.

Thanks for stopping by to check out my card for today.

Heirloom Boutique Bundle

I made this one a while back and I can't believe its taken me this long to share it.

It's a simple one and the design is cased from Jamie Barczaby in the U.S.

I think this might be the first card I made with this bundle when I received it after its release.

Unfortunately the Beautiful Pattern Embossing Folder is now retired, thats what happens when I leave it so long to share on socials!

However you could use any embossing folder for this soft background.

I paired Pool Party and Darling Duckling together for the colour combo.

I've used the Greenery Lane stamp set for the sentiment and stamped it in Secret Sea ink rather than black.

However I used Momento ink to stamp the outline of the floral image as I used blends to colour it in.

A few Antique Pearls to finish and I'm really hapoy with this card, that I'll keep on hand when I need to send a Sympathy card.

Thanks for stopping by to check out my card today.
