Hi Friends!
Have you ever tried hot foiling on acetate? This technique adds another whole dimension to the Hot Foiling System, and I had so much fun using it on this butterfly thank-you card!
The Botanical Glow images create that gorgeous leafy background, while the Butterfly Flight images become the stars of the card. I used soft peachy tones for the butterflies and layered them over the colourful foliage. The yellow gingham background adds another pattern without taking attention away from those butterflies.
But the really fun part of this card is the hot foiling on acetate.
Acetate gives you a completely different surface to work with, and adding hot foil creates a beautiful detail while still allowing the layers underneath to show through. During the video tutorial, I walk you through how I hot foil the acetate and share the tips I use to get a good result.
There’s quite a bit happening on this card, but because the different elements are layered together, it still feels light and airy. I especially love how the large butterfly becomes the focal point while the smaller butterflies lead your eye through the design.
And then there’s that big thank you sentiment across the front. The gold foiling ties beautifully into the rest of the card and gives it just the right finishing touch.
This card is one Stampin' Up! created for the recent FREE Hot Foiling Class.
If you have the Hot Foiling System and have mainly been foiling cardstock so far, give acetate a try! It’s another fun way to get more use from your system and opens up all sorts of possibilities for future projects.
The complete video tutorial is included below so you can see exactly how I created the card, including the hot foiling on acetate, measurements and supplies.
I hope this inspires you to pull out your Hot Foiling System and experiment with a different surface. And if you try hot foiling on acetate, I’d love to hear how it goes! 💜
