I had a BLAST creating with this release! Take a look:

Curtain Leaves Cover Die

Sweet Sentiments Hot Foil Plate Set 

Sweet Sentiments Die Set 

Stacking THREE layers of the Curtain Leaves Cover Die, slightly off-set, created a unique textured background for the sentiment. Which was not a perfect hot foil due to a wee bit of a jump of the plate in my machine. If you look closely at the Sweet Sentiments THANKS, there is a double, or stuttering of the foil line. I thought it looked FUN!!

Layered Ornate Frame Die Set

Sweet Sentiments Hot Foil Plate & Die Bundle 

Putting together these small blooms in Layered Ornate Frame Die Set, reminded me of playing with paper dolls as a child. VERY RELAXING! 

I followed the layering guide to help me decide what colors needed to be on each die cut layer, using the Watercolor Brush Markers. As all the die cut pieces were saturated with color, I took several 110# cardstock (A2 size) and smoooshed them over the top to help speed up the drying process...PLUS I got several BOUNS COOL cardfronts for future projects! YOU can see how I used one of them later in this post :)

Flower Wreath Hot Foil Plate

Flower Wreath Simple Coloring Stencil Set (2 in 1) 

For this one, I dry embossed the Flower Wreath HOT FOIL PLATE onto thick cardstock and used the GOLD GEL PEN to draw in the gold lines. Then I used the stencil to quickly color in the Flower Wreath.
