Hey Friend – Hot Foiling a Crafty Meraki Press-Tacular Plate

Hello, fellow crafters!! I hope your week is going well!! I have a card to share today featuring the Love Potion Press-Tacular Plate from Crafty Meraki!! I absolutely love how versatile press plates are!! Not only can you use them with your BetterPress System, they also foil beautifully with the Glimmer Hot Foil System!!

I began by foiling the Love Potion Press-Tacular Plate onto white cardstock with matte gold foil, then colored it with Copic markers. I used the Coordinating Die to cut it out.

For the background, I die-cut the Marrakech Mosaic A2 Background Die from white cardstock and trimmed it to approximately 4″ x 5.25″. I trimmed a panel of lilac cardstock to the same size, adhered the die-cut panel to it, then added it to an A2 panel of purple cardstock using liquid glue. The small frame was die-cut from purple cardstock using a scalloped frame die from Pinkfresh Studio, then it was adhered to the background with liquid glue. The Love Potion die-cut was popped up with foam tape. 

The sentiment, from the Gilded Expressions Press-Tacular Plate, was foiled onto white cardstock using the same matte gold foil. They were cut out with the Coordinating Die and adhered with a combination of foam tape and liquid glueMatte Gold Opal Pearls, added with my Bling Buddy, were the perfect finishing touch.

I love the combination of the purple with the gold foil!!

Thank you so much for spending a bit of your day with me!! I’ll see you soon!!
