Today’s card features the September Product of the Month paper the Luxe Foliage Specialty paper and this can elevate any card into something special!

With it’s gold foil details it sparkles and shines and makes this card extra special!

Measurements:
BASE: Secret Sea CS: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
scored at 4 1/4″, 4″ x 5 1/4″ for hot foiling
Basic White CS: (2) 4″ x 5 1/4″ layers
Gold Foil: 3 1/4″ square
DSP: 3″ square

Take one of the Basic White CS layers and emboss with the Sunflower 3D embossing folder.

Adhere the plain Basic White layer to the inside of the Secret Sea cardstock – I always add a Basic White layer to the inside of my dark colored cardstock bases.

Adhere the embossed layer to the front of th card base.

Here is a paper saving technique – I HATE WASTING ANYTHING especially gorgeous paper and the foils are no exception! So I die cut a smaller square to use later this will be covered up by the Luxe Foliage specialty paper and will be behind it so no one will be the wiser!

Adhere the Luxe Foliage 3″ square to the Gold Foil 3 1/4″ square.

Adhere to the top center of the embossed layer on the card front.

I used the Hot Foil System and the Sweetly Sentimental Hot Foil Dies to create lots of shiny sentiments on Secret Sea cardstock to match the card! Now I have loads of card sentiments to choose from!

I also did the reverse die technique so nothing goes to waste!

I added the sentiment to the lower right-hand side and added two Gold Adhesive-backed Dots for a coordinated sparkle!

This is such an elegant and quick and easy card!
