Easy Watercolor Technique with 3-D Embossing Folders…and Hot Foiled Sentiments!

March 4, 2023 March 4, 2023 by PinkWhisperDesigns in , , , , , , , No Comment

Hello and Welcome!!!

Today we will be creating two elegant embossed cards using a simple and easy watercolor technique!

To get started let’s take a look at the beautiful embossing folder that we will be using today which is the Sizzix 3-D Textured Impressions – Wildflowers.

Now we can open the embossing folder and apply some Tim Holtz Distress Ink (lighter color first) on the top portion of the folder and then we can run this through our die cutting machine. For the second card we will apply the ink to the top of the embossing folder and then spritz it with a bit of water and run it through.

For the first card we will be using a combination of the Kistch Flamingo and Picked Raspberry inks and for the second card we will be using the Scattered Straw and Abandoned Coral inks. These color combinations are just gorgeous but have some fun playing around with your favorite colors.

Next we can grab a #6 Round Brush and water to blend out the inks a little bit. Now let’s take the darker color and load the brush up with plenty of water and then pick up the darker color and apply some to the centers of the flowers and into some of the crevices of the embossing folder. You can apply as much or as little of this darker color as you like.

Now we can spatter each of these card panels with the darker color. We will use that same larger #6 brush so that we get some large spatters!

To create the sentiments we will be using the Creative Expressions “Smile” Wordies Sentiment Sheets. These sheets are loaded with sentiments and are designed to be used with your Hot Foiling System or simply used just the way they are.

In this video I will give you a few tips for foiling these sentiments. We will use the Spellbinders Glimmer Foil in Polished Brass and Silver.

Next we can assemble the card using some black cardstock to make the sentiment and the background pop out a little bit better!

Finally, let’s add a few pretty metallic gems from Pinkfresh Studio in Silver and Sparkling Champagne!

Hot Foiling and Resist Stenciling – Elegant Fall Card

November 20, 2022 November 20, 2022 by PinkWhisperDesigns in , , , No Comment

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Let’s create an elegant Fall card with stenciling, embossing and foiling! This card will have lots and lots of beautiful layers which will add so much interest to our card!

We will die cut a Hero Arts Infinity Heart Die and then we will stencil it with the Echo Park Designer Stencil from the Fall Fever Collection and this one is called Leaf Pile.

To begin the stenciling, we will use a variety of Distress Oxide Inks in some pretty Fall colors. And then….for a bit of added interest and dimension we will lay the stencil back down over the colored leaves and ink it up with some clear embossing ink and then add clear embossing powder. Now we can add some ink around the edges of the heart and the embossed area will resist the ink. Next we can spatter the entire heart and add some metallic pearls!

For one of the background layers and the sentiment, we will add some gold foiling using the Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil Machine and some Glimmer Plates. I’ll give you some tips and tricks for doing some easy foiling!

The card and layers are from the Welcome Fall – Carta Bella Coordinating Solids Paper Pack. Next we can quickly layer up the card on a top folding card base from some Kraft cardstock.

This card was created as a Congratulations card but could certainly be easily adapted to become a Thanksgiving or Fall card!

Spellbinders Autumn Leaf Border w/ Glimmer Hot Foiling

November 27, 2021 November 27, 2021 by PinkWhisperDesigns in , , No Comment

Hello and Welcome!

Today we are going to have some fun with the Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil System! We will be creating a gatefold birthday card with a pretty velvet belly band. And to add some additional interest, we will add a Tim Holtz metal “word band”.

I’ll show you how we will use the Metallic Gilding Polish to add color to the metal “word band”. Then we will highlight the lettering by using a Distress Crayon!

We will be using the Spellbinders Autumn Leaf Border Glimmer Plate! I’ll show you how quick and easy it is to apply this beautiful foiling to your projects! We will also use the Spellbinders Cannetille Rectangle Die to give this card a unique border and angled edge….which is so elegant!

After we have done the foiling, we will then apply some subtle color to the leaves using the Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Ink Pads in a variety of Fall colors. These work great on colored cardstock!

I know that a lot of us have a hard time creating masculine cards and sympathy cards…and this style would be great for either of those occasions!
