Thanks - Doodles Paper Playground

Thanks


☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆


I decided to use this mandala stamp from Sugar Pea Designs.
I stamped it on some watercolor paper and colored it with Mission Gold watercolors.


I used black for my top panel. 
I die cut a circle in the middle, added my acetate and a double layer of foam.


I attached the base paen to the card and laid out my sequins.
Then I added the top panel.


                                     

I decided to add a foiled thanks die cut to my card.
First I used a large piece of scor-tape that I placed on the front of 
the paper I used for my die cut.
Then I removed the backing paper and placed my foil on t
op and burnished really well. . . 
It was the first time I actually did this and think that it turned out great!!!


To complete the card I added a few sequins from a couple 
other mixes, Be-leaf in Yourself and Very Cranberry, 
to match the colors of the card.



For this card I used the Sparkle Blend Fairy Dust from 
Doodles Paper Playgrounds. 

There are more great Sparkle Blends and a large assortment of items for all your crafty projects over at White Rose Crafts!

I am also entering this card in the following challenges:

Thinking of You - Foiled Feathers

Thinking of you



I really wanted to try out foiling in my cards but I do not have a Minc machine.

I searched YouTube and found a technique that I think is going to work pretty well for me. 
It does require a laminator, but I already had one that I bought at Walmart for $10.00. 
The only thing I had to buy for this was the Deco Foil!

So I decide to use the Dream Big set.



I stamped the two feathers using VersaMark and clear heat embossed them. 



I cut my DecoFoil to size. Next step is to run the embossed image and the DecoFoil through the laminator. The heat remelts the embossing powder letting the DecoFoil adhere to it. I ran it though 3 times to make sure it adhered well. 

Ta-da! It is super easy and I love how it looks!


Next I added my sentiment from the Couples Sentiments set and a few splotches from the Dream Big set.

I added a few sequins, they are clear but kind of have a slight white/silver coating on them. . . I don't know how to explain it. . .

I love how this card turned out! I love the foiling, it a great addition to my card!
