A Foiled Holiday

A Foiled Holiday

Hey Crafty Meraki friends!  Michelle back with more holiday inspiration for you.  For my card today, I decided to do no stamping at all but instead do some hot foiling on these gorgeous ornaments....I love the vintage feel to them! Let's get started, shall we!

To start I used the 'Tis the Season Hot Foil Plate and foiled the ornament 5 times, using a mix of red, green, gold and an iridescent silver.  Each of the foils have a gorgeous sparkly finish to them.  Once they were foiled, I diecut them using the coordinating die.

For the background, I diecut a panel using the Parisienne Mini Slimline Die and then added some colour to it using a light grey Distress Ink.  I didn't want anything too bold of a colour for the background, so as not to distract from the ornaments.

Some gold splatters were added on the left side, under where the ornaments would go.  The sentiment was heat embossed in gold from the Gilded Holiday Greetings Stamp Set and cut out with the coordinating dies. 

I placed the ornaments temporarily where I'd like them and then used a piece of Press 'N Seal to pick them up, so that the arrangement would remain exactly as I placed them.  Next I added the strings that the ornaments would be hanging from. 

Adhesive was added to the back of the ornaments and they were placed back exactly on the diecut where I wanted them.  I removed the Press N Seal and this is where I realized that as it has a sticky nature it does remove a bit of the foil from the ornaments, as they stick to it a bit.  Not enough to make a big difference, but enough for me to notice......oh well.  The sentiment was added with foam adhesive and the finishing touches added with the Meraki Sparkle Magic Crystal gems....because you always need some sparkle and these little crystals are gorgeous!  I added it all to my cardbase and that's it!

And there we go...a festive and sparkly holiday card that has zero stamping, but has lots of gorgeous foil instead!  

I hope that you have enjoyed my post for today and that I help to inspire you some way. I wish you all the most wonderful and crafty day and until next time,

Michelle :)

Hi, I’m Christine Jensen I went through a rough time when my credit score was holding me back from getting a credit card and securing a decent apartment. But after reaching out to Vladimir Levin Credit Specialist, they managed to improve my score in just 5 days. Eight days later, I was approved for both a business credit card and a loan.

HIRE BLOCKCHAIN CYBER RETRIEVE TO RECOVER MONEY FROM CRYPTO SCAMMERS

My name is Jonathan Reed and I want to share this cautionary account so others don’t fall into the same trap. A few months ago I applied for a remote position with a company called Cryptogig US. The recruiter appeared professional and the company seemed legitimate. They assured me that my salary would be disbursed in USDT Tether. They requested my wallet credentials to facilitate the deposit. Trusting them I complied. Regrettably this proved to be a grave mistake. The recruiter absconded with my funds and I lost $56,000 in cryptocurrency. Emails bounced, messages went unanswered and I realized I had been defrauded.Feeling despondent and unsure where to turn I contacted BLOCKCHAIN CYBER RETRIEVE. From the outset they demonstrated empathy and attentiveness. I recounted the entire scenario: the fraudulent job offer, the disclosure of my wallet credentials and the subsequent loss of cryptocurrency. They meticulously guided me through the process and illustrated how stolen USDT can be traced across blockchain transactions. Their technical expertise and attention to detail were immediately reassuring especially during such a stressful time.What impressed me most was their candor and transparency. They did not offer hollow assurances or unrealistic promises but provided a lucid explanation of what was feasible and the potential challenges. They assisted me in documenting all pertinent information, navigating the recovery process and ultimately retrieving my lost cryptocurrency. Every step of the way they were patient in answering my questions and educating me about the nuances of blockchain tracking and crypto security. Their guidance transformed a situation that initially felt hopeless into one that was actionable and structured.Thanks to BLOCKCHAIN CYBER RETRIEVE I no longer feel powerless. Knowing there is a dedicated team capable of investigating and recovering misappropriated funds has bestowed me with a renewed sense of confidence and security. Their genuine commitment to supporting victims of crypto fraud is truly commendable. Beyond recovering my lost assets they restored my faith that such incidents can be addressed effectively when handled by experienced professionals. I am sharing my story to raise awareness and urge others to exercise caution, verify company legitimacy and never share wallet credentials. If you ever find yourself a victim of crypto fraud seeking expert assistance promptly can make a critical difference as it did for me.
