Now here is my Card
Techniques I used:
- Die-cut white cardstock using the Altenew Crocus Layering Die Set.
- Ink Blend the die-cuts using the Altenew Mediterranean Glow, Altenew Rose Petal, Altenew Sun-Kissed Delights Fresh Dye Ink.
- Die-cut black cardstock with coordinating the Altenew Crocus Layering Sentiment Die.
- Foiled the Altenew Gilded Marble Press Plate/Foil Plate using Altenew Rose Gold Hot Foil.
To finish I added some sequins.
Bonus Video!
I recently bought a Spellbinders Betterpress Letterpress System and fall in love with the Press Plates. Altenew has a range of beautiful Press Plates available. I also like the fact you can stretch the use of your Press Plates and foil with it.
