Majestic Cards
For today’s cards, I used Deco Foil transfer gel and a brayer to apply the gel onto the Majestic background stamp and then stamped the image onto the cardstock. Let it dry for about an hour. Make sure to immediately wash your brayer and stamp with warm water and soap when you are finished.
Now that the Deco Foil Transfer Gel has dried, cut a piece of foil the size of the cardstock and run thru the laminator inside the parchment paper with a shim of cardstock under for best results.
Next adhere the foiled background to your card base and choose your favorite die cut sentiment. I chose a Happy Birthday sentiment. For a great way to adhere detailed die cuts to your card bases, use the Easy-Cut Adhesive on the back of your cardstock and place the color side down on the die and die cut. Then peel off the back and adhere to your card base.
I added some small gold stars with our iCraft Ultra Bond Adhesive. The finished card is really pretty don’t you think?
I love the negative image left behind from foiling. I hate the thought of just discarding it so I found a fun way to use them along with our Deco Foam Adhesive sheets.
1. Cut a piece of cardstock 4 1/3 X 5 1/2 and then cut the Deco Foam Adhesive the same size.
2. Peel off the top layer of the foam adhesive and adhere the cardstock. Then turn over and peel off the other layer and carefully place the negative foil image from the top and smooth downward to apply evenly.
3. Place inside your favorite embossing folder and run it through your favorite die cutting machine.
4. Then admire the results.
Now adhere the finished piece to the card base with our XL tape runner. Look at the dimension this technique adds! Stamp the image and die cut to adhere to the front of the card using our 3D foam squares. Finish with a ribbon bow and some die cut gold stars.
I hope you’ll give these techniques a try on your next card. Have a creative day!
