Thank You card – Garden Silhouette hot foil

Thank you card – Garden Silhouette. Before July ends, I thought I’d squeeze in another card with July’s Product of the month – Begonia Belle! I also made use of the Garden Silhouette Hot Foil die which arrived a couple of days ago. It is beautiful for making quick simple cards. I wanted to make use of the pink foil and today’s thank you card is therefore very PINK!

Tips on different ways you can use die

The photo doesn’t do it justice, but it’s stunning in real life. There’s so many ways you can use this background. Cut it up to use the individual flowers or colour the flowers in with different mediums. You could also cut round the flowers into two pieces and use each piece to make two cards. Each piece will have 3 straight sides which you can align with your card base or mat layer and just add a sentiment. Choose any colour palette you wish with the silver or gold hot foil rolls – the whole spectrum of Stampin’ Up!’s 50 colours!

Stampin’ Hot Foil System

This is a new tool by Stampin’ Up! with special Hot Foil Dies. If you missed the post introducing the machine and information all about it, here’s a video to explain how the system works. Please be aware this machine is designed to fit Stampin’ Up!’s larger Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine and was tested with their own line of products. It would render the 1 year warranty on the Stampin’ Hot Foil System null and void if you use it on non-Stampin’ Up! machines which may not fit.

Also be sure you’re ordering the machine with the right plug for your market. Foils and dies have to be purchased separately.

If you purchase the Stampin’ Hot Foil System before Jan 4, 2027, it will also include the Metallic Magic Craft Class for free. The class will cost £28.00 to purchase when the free class offer ends.
