Sweetly Sentimental Floral Card Without Hot Foiling – Stampin’ Up! Tutorial

 Hi Friends!

When I recently shared this pretty Thinking of You card, I asked if you would like to see how I made it. The answer was definitely yes, so today I am sharing the complete video tutorial!

I created this elegant floral card using the Sweetly Sentimental stamp set from Stampin’ Up! The interesting thing about this project is that Sweetly Sentimental is part of a Hot Foiling bundle, but I did not use the Hot Foiling System at all.

I love finding different ways to use the products in my craft room, especially when a stamp set or bundle can give me completely different looks depending on how I use it. For this card, I wanted the beautiful large floral image to be the star.

The soft pink flowers and green leaves look beautiful against the white background, while the gold heat embossing details add a little elegance. The decorative corner pieces on the soft pink card front add even more interest and help frame that gorgeous floral focal point.

The Thinking of You sentiment makes this a lovely card to have on hand when you want to send someone a little reminder that they are on your mind.

I have included the complete step-by-step video tutorial below, so you can watch exactly how this Sweetly Sentimental card comes together. I share the measurements, supplies and all the little details you need to recreate the project.

One of the things I hope this project inspires you to do is look at your specialty products a little differently. Just because something is part of a Hot Foiling bundle does not mean every project you create with it needs to involve hot foiling!

If you give this card a try, I would love to hear what colours you would choose for your flowers.

Elegant Floral Hot Foiled Card with the Sweetly Sentimental Hot Foiling Bundle

 Hi Friends!

One of my favourite things about the new Sweetly Sentimental Hot Foiling Bundle is that it offers so much more than beautiful sentiments. Along with elegant greeting foiling plates and coordinating dies, the bundle also includes this gorgeous floral image that creates stunning handmade cards with very little effort.

For today's project, I heat embossed the floral image with Gold Embossing Powder before colouring it with soft pink flowers and fresh green leaves. The raised gold embossing beautifully outlines each petal and leaf, adding rich detail and a touch of elegance that pairs perfectly with the soft colour palette. The finished image is layered onto a large decorative die-cut panel and finished with a simple "Thinking of You" sentiment, creating a card that would be perfect for birthdays, encouragement, thank you notes, or simply letting someone know you're thinking of them.

Although I won't be doing a live demonstration for this card, you'll find the complete supply list and measurements below so you can recreate it in your own craft room. I hope it inspires you to combine heat embossing with the Sweetly Sentimental Hot Foiling Bundle to create elegant handmade cards with a professional finish.
