All Kinds of Crafty

Good morning! I hope you have been enjoying these beautiful fall days, well at least they are beautiful in NJ. I hope you are having nice weather where you are!

Today, I am sharing a card that I started making a while ago. I thought I was going to use the Luxe Foliage paper for the front of the card but as I played with the layout, I changed to sunflowers.

Save

I started with a Secret Sea card base and added a mat of Gold Foil. I then embossed a Secret Sea mat using the Sunflower 3D embossing folder. I used a Framed & Fabulous Hot Foil die with Gold Stampin’ Hot Foil on Secret Sea cardstock and then used the coordinating scallop die to cut it out.

Before adhering the scalloped circle, I used Secret Sea cardstock and Gold Foil along with Versamark and Metalics Wow! Gold embossing powder to stamp the sunflowers with the Radian Sunflowers stamp set and dies. I used liquid glue and dimensionals to adhere the flowers to the circle.

For the sentiment, I used the Three Banner Punch with some Gold Foil and on a small rectangle of Secret Sea I embossed “a little note” using Metalics Wow! Gold embossing powder. I adhered it to the banner using dimensionals and added three Gold Adhesive-Backed Dots.

For the inside of the card, I added a Basic White mat with a strip of Luxe Foliage Specialty DSP on the bottom.

I stamped a sunflower in the corner of the envelope with Secret Sea ink.

And adhered a strip of Luxe Foliage Specialty DSP to the flap of the envelope.

A few notes about the new system:

• Hot Foil results are best with either White Willow or Two-Tone Cardstock.  Smoother card stocks like the Two-Tone Cardstock and White Willow will achieve the best results when using the system, but you can use the regular card stocks too.
• The Hot Foil System, foil rolls and new hot foil dies and bundles will be available Friday, July 10, 2026 in the online Stampin’ Up! store.
• A FREE Hot Foil Online Class from Stampin’ Up! is included with your hot foil system purchase (a $30 value!), do not add the class separately to your cart (you’ll be charged for it if you do!).  You’ll automatically get a link to it after you purchase the Stampin’ Hot Foil System.
• The Stampin’ Hot Foil system is $160. Dies & foil are sold separately.
• Stampin’ Up! has let us know that if the Stampin’ Hot Foil system goes on backorder, it may take longer than normal to restock.  So if you would like to order the system, order sooner rather than later!
• IMPORTANT NOTE:  Cutting dies are not designed to be used with hot foiling.  You cannot die cut using foiling dies.  Doing so risks damaging the dies and the system.

I’m so excited for you all to be able to order this new system!  I have recently started playing with mine and it’s so much fun!  Head over to my Stampin’ Up! online store beginning July 10 to see and order the new system!
