SSS – Deco Foiling w/Stencil

Hello Crafty friends! Today I have a card for you using Simon Says Stamp products and new to me, deco gel! I really loved how easy it was to use the deco gel and then foil onto it.

Here is a list of supplies…

• Simon Says Stamp – Poppy Bouquet
• Therm O Web TRANSFER GEL DUO iCraft DecoFoil
• Therm O Web CHAMPAGNE Deco Foil Transfer Sheets 
• Blue Cardstock
• Cream Cardstock
• Sakura CLASSIC WHITE Bold Line 10 Gelly Roll Pen
• CZ Design HELLO Wafer Dies
• Neenah Solar White 110 lb card stock – card base

I started by adhering the Simon Says Stamp – Poppy Bouquet to a piece of blue card stock. I then used a spatula and spread the Therm O Web TRANSFER GEL DUO iCraft DecoFoil making sure to get as even as a coat as I could. I pulled the stencil off and immediately washed it. The instructions for the Therm O Web TRANSFER GEL DUO iCraft DecoFoil say to wait until it turns clear. Well, to pass the time I started making another card and ended up leaving it over night, which was totally ok when I went to foil. The gel was still sticky.

When I returned to the card, I used a Therm O Web CHAMPAGNE Deco Foil Transfer Sheet and trimmed it to fit my panel. I ran it through my MINC machine and it was SO SATYSFYING pulling that foil off to reveal that beautiful stencil.

I felt like the panel needed a little bit more, and I didn’t want to use shimmer spray, or anything else so I opted for hand drawn circles all over. I used my favorite gel pen (that NEVER CLOGS!), a Sakura CLASSIC WHITE Bold Line 10 Gelly Roll. I finished the card off with a layered hugs die using a piece of the same color card stock as the background and a cream top.
