Jasmine Burgess | Foiled Peony with Ink Blending and Dry Embossing @JasmineBurgess | Uploaded March 2018 | Updated October 2024, 12 hours ago.
Full disclosure: I did not set out to make this card. It was actually an experiment that went really right! I used the Peony Coverplate die from Papertrey Ink and die cut it to see if it would work as a stencil for the Deco Foil transfer gel. After using the gel and letting both pieces dry, I ran both through my laminator and was ecstatic with the results. I used a textured cardstock I've had in my stash forever because it's a little heavier and that texture gave the foiled piece a really cool, vintage vibe that I liked better than the stenciled piece. I used Amethyst Watercolor foil with it, so it has variegated purple tones and it just stunning. I HAD to use it on a card. I wanted to keep the ink blending really soft so that the foiling would stand out and to give it another texture. And for one more element of texture, I dry embossed the white cardstock that I then ink-blended. If you watched my alcohol ink video using this same die, then you'll be familiar with how I used the diecut to guide where I placed my colors of ink. To finish it off, I added a die-cut sentiment in a medium teal and my card was complete.
