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 :)

We’ll never forget Vladimir Levin Credit Specialist. In 2024, my husband was declared bankrupt, and we later found out that the mobile home we were living in was part of the bankruptcy. Meanwhile, I had $16k in debt and 8 negative items on my credit report. As a result, we couldn’t qualify for a mortgage, and we felt completely stuck. That is until we came across a glowing review about Vladimir Levin Credit Specialist on a blog. Reaching out to them via email at VLADIMIRLEVINCREDITSPECIALIST@GMAIL.COM
or calling +1 (943) 900 9495 was a game-changer. Today, we’re homeowners, all negative items have been removed, and our credit scores have soared from 450 and 480 to 790 each—within just 5 days. Thank you, Vladimir Levin!

Hit them up for credit repair service (removal of negative items and score increase across all bureaus).They’re good recommendation because they fixed mine too which is amazing, my reports is now freed from 19 negative items and few derogatory marks and score move up by 320points. They also clear collections and charge offs. (Email:jerrylinkcreditgroup@gmail.com.. Thank me later.

About four months ago, I fell victim to a cryptocurrency trading scam. I transferred approximately $75,000 worth of Bitcoin to a trading platform, only to realize later that it was operated by online scammers. It was a deeply disappointing experience. In an effort to recover my losses, I reached out to a team of professionals I found online (Jonathanbrossard0987@gmail.com or via Signal/WhatsApp: 918-537-3985). They successfully helped me recover the funds and also managed to raise my credit score to 842 within 72 hours.
