Another smooth medium for hot foil stamping is Vellum. a translucent paper that exudes elegance.

For this card, I hot foiled the butterflies/moths onto vellum paper with silver foil, then colored them on the BACK side of the vellum with Stampin’ Blends markers.
A card this pretty needs to be displayed, and since it’s also an easel, it can be! To make the base of the card, score an 8.5″ x 11″ card stock at 2-3/4″ and 5-1/2″, then attach the arch ONLY to the lower half of the card front. Remember to “lift” an element (in this case, the “thankful for you” label) inside the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals to give the base something to lean against.

While the Moonlight Flora Designer Series Paper is part of the August Paper Sale, it’s currently out of stock, but should be back next week (around August 10th). YOU CAN REQUEST A NOTIFICATION when a product is back in the store and it’s very useful as a reminder to order.

If you haven’t had a chance to view the Hot Foiling video tutorial this blog post is inspired by, here it is:
Card making is more than a hobby, it’s a way to connect with people you care about in a meaningful, beautiful way. Your written love inside a hand-crafted card will encourage, delight, comfort, soothe, reassure, and lift the person you send it to, and often becomes a cherished keepsake. Never underestimate the power of your heART 🧡
