Winter card foiling with ink blending ~ Snowflakes

December 28, 2022 - by Gaylynn

Winter card foiling with ink blending ~ Snowflakes

Hello and welcome, it’s Gaylynn.  Here is a way to do winter card foiling with ink blending.  The colors used are striking and shimmery.

Two similar cards were made using the same foil and ink techniques.  One is a bit lighter in color than the other.

Sentiment:  Warm wishes.

Helpful tips:

These are helpful tips for winter card foiling with ink blending.  To begin, prepare a card front by die-cutting and stamping using embossing ink.  Then, add embossing powder and heat set the stamping.  Next, add a sheet of foil over the embossed panel, sandwich it between a carrier sheet and then run it through a heated laminator.  Then, carefully remove the foil sheet.  Next, add ink blending in two colors over the snowflakes or around your particular stamped panel.  Then, stamp and cut the top sentiment separately.  Finally, layer it all onto the card base using flat and foam tape, to finish.

 

See how these cards were created.

Here are two versions of the cards made.


And here is another version using a darker shade of ink blending.
