Tutorial die cut with foil

Good morning!  Tammy Louise with you sharing a LDRS Creative video tutorial!  I've fallen in love with the technique that makes your die cuts shine and shimmer with craft foil!  

INGREDIENTS:

Gilded Doily Die
Gilded Oval Labels
Wishing You Sentiment Set
Fairy Tale Sentiments

I will share some steps with you here as well, ready?  Grab a pen!

1. Choose your favorite LDRS Creative die

2. Emboss some card stock with clear, fine embossing powder.  A large enough area to cut with your die choice

3. Heat up your powder on the stock and cut your die out

4. Cut a square of foil large enough to cover the embossed and heat dried die cut and place the die cut down (embossed side up), place the shiny side foil up on top of the die and place them inside parchment or printer paper with a fold so that the paper creates a creased folder.

5. Heat up your lamination machine and place the scored edge of parchment/computer paper through! 

That's all there is to it!  When you've run it through, the heat and pressure melt the embossing powder again and it adheres to the foil!  Peel your die cut away from the foil and it's done!  You've gotta try it!  It's a stunning technique!

Watch the LDRS Creative You Tube tutorial to see me create this step by step!!

The Best Day Ever

It's Tammy Louise here today to show you how to dry emboss with you die cuts!  There's a NEW You tube tutorial to show you how to create your own beautiful embossing with any of the LDRS Creative dies! 

I used the Darling Squares die set and cut into some magnetic sheet.  I use magnetic sheet because it's just thick enough to make a great impression but not so thick that the dies won't cut through.  

After cutting the magnetic sheet flowers and vines, I embossed with the cuttlebug with the same plates I would if there was an embossing folder and the impressions were fantastic!

I simply cut small rectangles from the embossed paper, adhered them to some black stock and applied them to my vellum base card that was 7" x 5".  Leaving just a small section of see through area for added design to this elegant but CAS card.  The sentiment is from the "Wishing You" collection and the die cuts were from some black design vellum for added color.
