I love finding multiple uses for stamp sets that make them go farther for lots of occasions. Balloon Bouquet from The Greetery is one of my all time favorite sets because I just love that floral swag. The balloons are gorgeous but I love that a die is included so you can use it on its own.
First, I stamped out the balloon (Ink colors linked in supply list) and the florals twice so I had 2 balloon to work with. I used the floral bouquet die and cut both out. After layering a Postal Frame on my white card base, I used foam squares to pop up the floral pieces so they were just barely overlapping each other on both sides.
Last, I hot foiled the Thank You plate from Opposites Attract Hot Foil Sentiment Set. I absolutely love the shine that hot foiling brings to a card. Check out more details below if you haven't tried hot foiling yet.
So glad you stopped in today! Hope you have a great day!

Are you new to hot foiling?
Spellbinders has a platform called Glimmer Hot Foil System. This platform heats up metal plates called Glimmer Plates. These glimmer plates come in ALL different types....sentiments, florals, backgrounds, graphic details etc....and add the most gorgeous foiling detail to your cards. And the foils? There are LOTS of different colors to chose from!
Here are some links to help point you in the right direction....
The Glimmer Hot Foil System works great with a Platinum 6 Die Cut machine from Spellbinders but also works with other die cut machines. You can click HERE to see a compatibility chart.
First you heat up the platform and your glimmer plate on the Glimmer System Platform. Then you add in the foil and the cardstock and run it thorough your die cut machine. Once you pull off the foil negative, the magic happens! That foil that is set on your cardstock and the results are just gorgeous!
