Hey peeps. I’m working my green today making a St. Patrick’s Day Deco Foil card. My birthday is on St. Patrick’s day and it’s a special on this year because my twin and I are turning 50! Yes we made it to this fabulous age and I couldn’t be happier. You see when I turned 40 I was diagnosed with colon cancer. It was the scariest time of my life and for my family. We were so fortunate that the cancer was easily removed and I am almost 10 years cancer free.

Anyway back to the St. Patrick’s Day card for my sister. I started with a beautiful blend of distress oxide inks for my background. Next I added some splattered gold splatter to the background as well. Wanting to pull in some beautiful gold foil on my card, so I grabbed my deco foil foam adhesive sheets and foil sheets and got busy.

My completed card looked great with all the gold and green. Perfect for St. Patrick’s Day. You can see more of the deco foil in action on this video I made during my holiday card series.

Hey peeps. It’s Monday and I’m back with the Holiday Card Series 2018 – Day 4. I’m so excited to share with you an easy technique to produce really great cards. No stamping required for this one and it’s easy to mass product.

For my card today I’m using foil, scor-tape and a large graphic die cut to make quick, fast and a hurry cards. You can pull out any color foil for this project and any width scor-tape. The design concept is easy to follow and you can change it up anyway you want.

Pairing the foil with a light sheet of vellum tones down the harshness and adding glitter paper for the sentiment really makes this card stand out.
