First is my card for MFT Camp Create Fantastic Foiling. As many of you know, I love using foil with self-adhesive fun foam. But recently I got Flitter Glue after seeing it used in one of the MFT videos. I wanted to try foiling a stamped image. Luckily I have MFT Distressed Diamonds--just the right type of image to use.
I paired it with the smaller MFT poinsettia die which I cut from super sparkly glitter paper & vellum. The sentiment is also MFT & is stamped in Versafine Deep Lagoon--a great match for my blue foil! I'm also entering CropStop, HLS Anything With Dies & SSS Monday.
Next is my card for PTI Create Along With Us. Dawn's card reminded me that I still hadn't used the negative die cut from my MIM card.

Ended up with a pretty flat card that packs a punch & will soon be in the mail. I'm also entering ATSM, CAS Mix Up & Virginia's View.
Thanks so much for taking time to visit my blog.
Two fantastic cards Greta. LOVE the shine of your beautiful blue foil ... so elegant, especially paired with your glittery poinsettia. And LOVE the drama of your watercoloured honey comb frame over black. Gorgeous! Thanks for sharing with us at CAS Mix Up!
ReplyDeletewonderful cards Greta - i want to try camp create and it's such a crazy busy week i don't think i'll make it!
ReplyDeleteTwo fantastic cards Greta. I have a pile of cards sitting here that I hope to actually address and mail out tomorrow. Wish me luck. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteWell the foiling certainly worked a treat on both of these cards. Especially like the diamond effect on the top card. Hugs Mrs A.
ReplyDeleteBoth are just stunning. Loved seeing the negative of that wonderful past hexagon design, and did the colors ever shine out against that dark background. Looks like the flitter glue worked perfectly for the beautiful foiling..and the white & blue with the texture of the white poinsettia is just so classy. TFS & Hugs (I'm with you on the blogging. If I post a card, then feel needs must then do lots of visits to the sweet folks who were kind enough to comment).
