Accenting your stamped images with Deco Foil

Friday, October 28, 2016

Hello there! Today I'm having some fun accenting stamped images from Art Impressions with DECO FOIL™ ADHESIVE PEN and DECO FOIL™ TRANSFER SHEETS.

DECO FOIL™ TRANSFER SHEETS • SILVER STARS
DECO FOIL™ TRANSFER SHEETS • RED
DECO FOIL™ ADHESIVE PEN
MEMORY TAPE RUNNER XL™
Other Supplies: Art Impressions- Tropical Christmas Christmas Wreath Set Our DECO FOIL™ ADHESIVE PEN makes accenting your stamps a snap! The rounded tip makes it easy to apply the glue to the image. Once the Art Impressions Christmas Wreath image was stamped, embossed and colored with Copics, I used the Adhesive pen to apply the adhesive and let it dry. Then I was able to easily burnish the Deco Foil onto the image.

Here's a look at the collage I created using several images from the Art Impressions Tropical Christmas set. I applied the adhesive to the bells, let it dry and then burnished the DECO FOIL™ TRANSFER SHEETS • SILVER STARS  onto the images.

The DECO FOIL™ ADHESIVE PEN makes adding foil quick and easy to any of your stamped images. Try this technique on your next stamped project.

Halloween themed project shares

Wednesday, October 19, 2016

Hello friends! I spent most of the summer creating for Anna Griffin's October HSN show.  I must confess, it's pretty hard to wait to share my creations with you until the shows air. 

Anna always out does herself with her designs. I get the boxes and open them up with anticipation every single time! 

Since Halloween is just around the corner, today seems like the perfect time to share a few fun cards I created with Anna's 3D Stickers and Rosettes.

.


I use Therm-O-Web 3D foam squares to attach the rosettes and stickers to my card bases. They add great dimension and stick really well over other textures like the glitter die cut I used.


The smaller foam squares that come in the multi pack were perfect for mounting the pumpkin die to my card base,


 Anna's stickers are so fun to create with and make it easy to create fun cards like these quickly.

Check out more of Anna's products available at HSN.

I hope you have a SPOOKTACULAR Halloween!

Fun Halloween cards

Saturday, October 15, 2016

Hello there!  Today I'm whipping up a few fun foiled Halloween cards with Therm-O-Webs ICRAFT® EASY CUT ADHESIVE™ SHEETS • LG and DECO FOIL™ TRANSFER SHEETS.

Therm-O-Web Supplies: ICRAFT EASY CUT ADHESIVE™ SHEETS • LG DECO FOIL™ TRANSFER SHEETS
3D WHITE FOAM SQUARES • COMBO PACK
MEMORY TAPE RUNNER XL™
Other Supplies: Anna Griffin Halloween Papers, Stickers, Owl and Spiderweb Die Twine: Orange and Brown



Project Instructions: Using the Easy-Cut Adhesive, I layer it over white cardstock and cut the die using my Cuttlebug.  Next I cut a piece of the DECO FOIL™ TRANSFER SHEETS in black to cover my die.

I love using the Cuttlebug to apply the DECO FOIL™ TRANSFER SHEETS. to the ICRAFT EASY CUT ADHESIVE™ SHEETS because it applies so evenly and brings out the detail in the dies.

To finish off the card, I used some twine and a few die cuts backed with 3D WHITE FOAM SQUARES. For the second card, I used the same technique with the Anna Griffin owl die and you can see the detail in the owl after the  DECO FOIL™ TRANSFER SHEETS in Amber Watercolor have been applied.

Halloween Treat bags with Deco Foil

Saturday, October 1, 2016

Hello there! Today I'm sharing some fun Deco Foil™ Halloween favor bag ideas and a tip for evenly applying your Deco Foils to our ICRAFT® EASY-CUT ADHESIVE™ SHEETS .


Other Supplies: Anna Griffin Halloween collections and dies. Orange Bakers Twine

Project Instructions:

 I've found I get great results with the ICRAFT® EASY-CUT ADHESIVE™ SHEETS  and DECO FOIL™ TRANSFER SHEETS when I peel off one side of the adhesive and mount it to cardstock first. Then I cut my die of choice with the die facing down on the shiny side of the adhesive as shown. Once the die is cut, then I weed the small pieces out of the design and peel off the shiny side and place it on the B cutting plate facing up. Then I place a sheet of the Deco Foil over  the die cut and then add a rubber shim that comes with Anna Griffin dies and place the 2nd B plate on top and run it thru the Cuttlebug. This helps the foil to impress smoothly over the die cut. See the ghost is so smooth you can see the detail in the embossed design.

Next I just went through my stash of Anna Griffin papers and stickers to add some fun to the treat bags. 
Now just fill em' with fun goodies and pass them out to all your goblins and ghouls!

Happy Halloween!
