Hot Foiling

HI Everybody,

So yesterday I got out my Minc Machine and played with some Hot Foils that I have in my stash and these are two of the card I came up with.

I made loads of backgrounds that can be used in the future from all different colours of foil and I enjoyed the playtime with them.

This first one was foiled on Kraft Card and I used an embossing folder to get this look
 This second one I created with transfer gel and a stencil on white card and both have used Gold foil.

I like the look of both of them. The flowers where some I stamped and die cut a long time ago they fell out of an envelope packet while I as tidying up

So I thought I would use them up to create my cards.

Both of the sentiments are from Spellbinders and again some I have had for quite some time, so I don't even know if they are still available.

These cards will go into my Charity shop donations and as soon as the shop re-opens I will take these, and 210 others, to them to sell.

Extended Oval Box

Hi Everybody,

When the Oval Box Die Set was brought out it was very popular and sold out very quickly when it was on Hochanda.

But the sides to this box, although plenty deep enough to hold small gifts, where shallow.

Well now it's back and with it comes the opportunity for you to make it deeper, up to 5.5",  with the
 Oval Additions set

This new die set will only work for you if you already have the Complete Oval Box Die Set

That original set created the top and base of the box for you as well as the shallower sides.

With the Oval Box there was flowers and leaves and flourishes for you to decorate the outside, and add your sentiment.

But with the additions set there is also a bow and some border dies as well as even more flowers and leaves.

The dies that will make a complete card with lots of layers and of course the Trellis too are also in the Complete Oval Card & Box Die Set

If you don't already have the Original Set then you can purchase both sets together at an amazing price and then you can make your boxes to the depth that you require
