Hey everyone! I finally get to unveil a *secret release*…Altenew has released HOT FOIL PLATES! I’m so excited to join Altenew for the brand new Glint & Glimmer Collection (ALT) and Blog Hop! Thanks so much to Yasmin Diaz for relaying you over to my blog. If you want to relive the amazing project ideas from the team of designers for this release, head back over to the Altenew Card Blog or keep reading to find the complete blog list. Don’t miss the wonderful giveaway opportunities as well–more on that down below!
Glint and Glimmer Collection
Golden Aspen Leaves and Embossed White Bark
I recently went out to Breckenridge and Winter Park in Colorado. One of my favorite memories of being in the Colorado Rockies is the way the Aspen trees glimmer in autumn. I used the Tree Bark Botanical 3D Embossing Folder to make my aspen bark. Then I used the Craft-A-Flower: Antique Rose leaves to cut my golden aspen leaves. I finished the card with a die cut sentiment from the Craft Your Life Project Kit: Seasonal Blooms and gold sequins.
Materials and Supplies
Tree Bark 3D Embossing Folder |
Craft-a-Flower: Antique Rose |
Craft Your Life Seasonal Blooms Project Kit |
Spicy Yogurt Cardstock |
Hot Foiled Banners and Patterns
I used three of the new hot foil crafty items in this card. I started with the Tiny Patterns Hot Foil Plate Set to make a simple striped barcode background. I also used a hot foil solid plate to impress the negative impression on a second piece of cardstock.
Then I hot foiled the Sentiment Banners Hot Foil Plate and die cut the banners with the coordinating die. I also impressed the negative foil impression using the same solid hot foil plate and die cut those images.
Finally I die cut the Congrats Die Set from white and navy cardstock. I also stamped one of the sentiments from Sentiment Strips Stamp Set onto one of the hot foiled banners.
Materials and Supplies
Tiny Patterns Hot Foil Plate Set (4 in 1) |
Sentiment Banners Hot Foil Plate & Cover Die Bundle |
Congrats Die Set |
Sentiment Strips 2 Stamp Set |
Hot Foiled Monochrome Mandala
Just like heat embossing, hot foil resists ink blending. You will still get beautifully vibrant inked images and shiny foil. I embellished the entire Sunburst Doily with sequins after ink blending the foiled panel with blue ink.
Materials and Supplies
Sunburst Doily Hot Foil Plate & Die Set |
Make A Statement Sequins Bundle |
Sunflower Daisy Stamp/Die Bundle |
Wildflower Paper Crafting Collection 12X12 Paper Pack |
Opalescent Hot Foil Rose
For my final card I foiled the outline of Gilded Rose onto a panel of white cardstock. I used the coordinating detail layer stencils to ink blend a rainbow of colors around the rose. Of course, this card shines beautifully with the opalescent foil and ink blending.
Materials and Supplies
Gilded Rose Hot Foil Plate & Layering Stencil Bundle |
Altenew Crisp Dye Ink |
Ink Blending Tool – Small |
Paint-a-Flower: Sunflower |

Your cards are amazing! I am not a “hot foiler”; mainly because I am trying not to get involved in every trend out there. My craft room is limited in size and my hand dexterity in declining, so I am trying to slow down a bit. But, I have to say, the look is beautiful. Your cards are always the first I go to. Thank you.
