Have you tried Hot Foiling yet? You may have already noticed that I am a little addicted to anything ‘foil’, so…. here we go again!
But first, this post is part of a Hop celebrating a new release from Altenew so you should have arrived here from LAURAJANE’s wonderful Blog.
Did you know that you can colour a foiled image? Firstly, I Hot Foiled this Freesia with silver foil before I added some simple watercolouring with the Woodless Watercolor Pencils.
I used regular Neenah cardstock so I didn’t add too much water (which is the beauty of watercolour pencils, is that you don’t have to).
And the sentiment is from the Circled Sentiments Set.
My next design uses the fabulous Fine Rings: Circles Hot Foil Plate Set and co-ordinating Circle Die Set.
I did some simple Artist Marker colouring with the flower from Castle Garden Set.
And added a Hot Foil die cut Fancy Enjoy Die.
And look No Hot Foil!
This Oriental Poppy Set is divine!
So I did a little Artist Marker colouring and Set I has all my favourite colours.
