Foiled Stamped Background

Hello crafty friends! Tracy here and today I have a fun little card to share. My tutorial will show you just how I got this foiled stamped background. Here are all of the details.

Let’s Play With Foil

First I gathered a few things to start the Foiled Stamped Background. I used this 6×6 background cling stamp from Hero Arts, red cardstock and the yellow foil from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Pastel Colors.

Getting Started

Stamp the entire image onto the red cardstock using an embossing pad and Ranger’s Sticky Embossing Powder. This process needs to happen quickly while the embossed area is all still warm. Press the yellow foil firmly onto the heated embossed areas. You can reheat any areas that do not stick right away.

Once satisfied with your foil coverage of the Foiled Stamped Background, cut it down to 3.75×5. Then mat that with black cardstock. Added the card front to the back cardstock using Creative Photo Corners Gold. Adhere the card front to the white cardstock A2 card base using the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser.

Stamp the sweet images onto white cardstock using black ink. I added color to the images using Zig Clean Color Markers and a water brush. Fussy cut out the images.

Stamp the card sentiment onto black cardstock using an embossing pad and gold embossing powder. Adhere the sentiment to the Foiled Stamped Background using Thin 3D Foam Squares Black Mix. Add the kittens to either side of the sentiment using 3D Foam Squares White Mix.
