But first, let me share how to make a card using hot plates in 2 ways!
I started by hot foiling Spark Joy Decorative Flowers Hot Foil Plate, 3 times, onto a piece of Navy Cardstock using Rose Gold Hot Foil. I then colored the hot-foiled images using the coordinating simple coloring stencils and pigment inks. Pigment inks are best for adding color to dark cardstock as they sit on the surface. The inks I used were Frosty Pink and Coral Berry Pigment Inks for the flowers; Frayed Leaf, Forest Glades, and Evergreen Pigment Inks for the leaves; and Warm Sunshine Pigment Ink for the flower centers. I then let them dry and die cut using the coordinating die.
For the background, I used the same hot foil plate but this time instead of using it to hot foil, I used it to stamp instead. I inked the hot foil plate using Antique Gold Ink before repeatedly stamping the image onto a 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ panel of Navy Cardstock. Once this was complete I adhered this onto a white 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ card base and then added the die cut images into place using Instant Dimension Foam Tape. Before adding the sentiment, from Build-A-Garden: Rocktrumpet, I added a little gold splatter using Metallic Watercolor Pan Set.
