Springtime Foils Stampin' Blends fun fold card
March 07, 2018
Have you noticed I can't stop playing with the Stampin' UP! Springtime Foils Sale-a-Bration paper!? IT is SOOO gorgeous and I've been sharing on Instagram, FB, YouTube and here on my blog each time I've been working with it!!
Enjoy a 12x12 pack of the Springtime Foils paper as your free Sale-a-Bration gift with $50 online purchase through 3/31/18!
Today's handmade card idea features Springtime Foils paper colored with Stampin' Blends alcohol markers, and layered with Copper Foil paper and Soft Suede cardstock. The pretty little stamped flower accent is from the Petal Palette stamp set and also colored with Daffodil Delight and Old Olive Stampin' Blends markers.
I created this card one day last month when I was stamping with Cindee... she designed this gorgeous card and had all the parts ready to go and I loved creating it!! I have all the dimensions for this Fun Fold card listed in the photos below for you.
TIP!
Before die cutting the pretty lattice piece, adhere some Multipurpose Adhesive to your cardstock, THEN run it with the Petals & More thinlit die through the Big Shot, and then just peel off the paper backing and it's ready to stick to your project! Super easy! It's like having a gorgeous decorative paper sticker!
TIP!
After adhering the die cut to the strip of Soft Suede cardstock, insert the end of the Soft Suede cardstock piece into the Pretty Label punch as shown and then punch the end.. look at the great scalloped end result!! This is how it looks with a 1" wide piece of cardstock, but you can try it with other widths as well.
12 sheets in a pack - 12x12 specialty foil paper!

Stampin' Blends markers (see them all here) are an amazing way to add color to this paper, or, leave it with the Rose Gold and white images.. either way.. it's gorgeous!
As I've mentioned in my Stampin' Blends videos, I like to add yellow (Daffodil Delight) to my leaves before adding Old Olive. I think it helps to lighten the leaves, add a little bit of "sun kissed" effect, and also helps tie in with the colors of the flowers.

Patty, I would love to know your secret to getting such smooth layering of the blends on that slick springtime foils DSP. I am well versed in Copics so I know how the blends work but I cannot get a soft smooth look when coloring on the foil paper. Any hints you could share would be most appreciated.
