Hi friends! Happy Tuesday! Please join me in welcoming back special guest Mindy Eggen to our blog today! Read on to learn more about this pretty card design and enjoy!!

Hello crafty friends! This is Mindy Eggen and I’m so excited to be on the Simon Says Stamp
blog sharing inspiration with you from the Hero Arts November 2022 release. I’m going to be
doing some hot foiling with a gorgeous new hot foil plate. Hot foiling is a great way to step up
your holiday cards and add shine.

I started by hot foiling the Holly Hot Foil Plate onto some Mist cardstock using my Spellbinders
Glimmer Machine and Silver foil.

Next, I created a couple frames for my card front using Deluxe White cardstock, Cherry
cardstock and the Nesting Rectangle die. I layered these on top of my foiled panel using foam
tape to add dimension.

I didn’t want to take up too much space in the center of the card with a large sentiment so I am
using the Holiday Sentiment Strips stamp set. By using this smaller sentiment, I am able to still
show off the gorgeous foiling in the background.

I stamped the sentiment onto Cherry cardstock using the Hero Arts Embossing ink and heat
embossed with gold embossing powder. While there is a die that will help cut out these
sentiments, I just used a paper trimmer.

I added the sentiments to the center of the card front using foam strips. Then I embellished with
the Icicle Sequins Mix and added a dot of Hero Hues White Pearls to the center.

This is such an elegant card that you can send to your friends and family this year and doesn’t
take a long to make! I think a light pink cardstock would look lovely foiled in silver too!

Hope you enjoyed today’s inspiration from Hero Arts! Thanks so much for stopping by!
