Laughter is Timeless

Hello friends - welcome and thanks so much for visiting.  Today I am excited to be sharing another card using one of the Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil Plates.  If you are like me and don't have a Foil Machine - you can still use the plates - not in the traditional way but definitely effectively - hopefully you are inspired by this card...you can find my first card using the foil plates differently HERE.

I have used the 'faux letterpress' technique and used the Spellbinders Gilded Leaves Shaped Panel Glimmer Hot Foil Plate The Gilded Age by Becca Feeken as an embossing plate, sponging both Flourish Plates using Imagine Memento Ink in Rhubarb Stalk using a Sponge Dauber for precision.  I placed the ink side up onto the main plate of the Platinum Die Cutting Machine, inside the Outer Frame Cutting Edge , followed by a piece of teal card stock.  Run through the Platinum using the tan mat and the embossing plate.

The sentiment is from Kaisercraft and has been popped up into slightly larger pink card stock using Scrapbook Adhesives BY 3L 3D Foam Squares.  The flowers are also from Kaisercraft and have been fussy cut/hand cut using scissors and also popped up onto alternate corners using 3D Foam Squares. 

These layers have been popped up onto the debossed card front using double sided tape and Want2Scrap Baby Bling Teal Rhinestones have been added along the top and bottom of the sentiment layers.

The layered card front has been popped up onto a pre-cut slightly larger pink card base with rounded corners.
