Hot Foil - Honeycomb & Bee Birthday

 Happy Saturday!

Today, I have a card using hot foil.  It uses a couple sets - Honeycomb & Bees is a set I found on Amazon. The sentiment is a Yana Glimmer Spellbinders set. 

I used gold foil and Spellbinders Glimmer Machine.  I've been really happy with the machine, really easy to use especially with the Spellbinders Platinum Die Cut Machine. machines vary, but I've been lucky no extra shims needed to get a good impression. If you are unfamiliar with Hot Foil, it came out a few years ago.  It uses both heat and pressure to transfer the foil to the cardstock. 

I use Hammermill 110 lb weight cardstock for Hot Foil, it is inexpensive very smooth and the transfer is very clean and crisp.

The outer border is gold metallic paper cut with a My Favorite Things Stitched Rectangle Scalloped Frame die. 

I colored the flower and some parts of the honeycomb with Copic markers. 

Copic Colors: Y32, Y35, Y38, E33, E35, E37, W5, W7 

Cardstock: PTI Smokey Shadow

MFT - Mice Time to Celebrate Shaker Card

 Happy Saturday!

Today, I have a shaker birthday card for our grand-nephew to share.  The cheese background die cut is one I found on Amazon.  I glued a piece of acetate behind the die cut to create the clear front for the shaker.  Then, I added thin foam tape around the 4 large holes, filled them with clay sprinkles and added the base card.

The Mouse and sentiment are from a My Favorite Things stamp set - "It's a Mice Time to Celebrate".  I colored the image with Copic Markers and cut it out by hand, then added it to the front.
