NEW Designer Foil Colors!!!

Hello,

Tami here... I would like to introduce you to the NEWEST Designer Foils, Limeburst and Pink Punch. As their names suggest, these colors are bright, fun and BOLD!



Their vibrant hues make them perfect for all kinds of themes like birthdays, "girlie" projects, Easter, teen and tween projects or celebrations.

If you aren't familiar with Designer Foils, they are made to pair with Clearsnap's Design Adhesives. Design Adhesives are just what they sound like - shapes, words and motifs all done in adhesive. You use them like you would a rub on, then you can sprinkle them with glitter, embossing powder OR... you can top them with a Designer Foil! The foil sticks to the adhesive design and when you peel it away, you are left with a fabuous shiny embellishment that adds texture and depth to your project.

For today's project, the bright lime green and hot pink colors have been tamed a bit with kraft paper and distressing. Coordinating colors of cardstock in lighter shades also helped soften the effect. But the foils are still bright and fun and add a "burst" of color and give a "punch" of shine to this Christmas card...



You can also use 2 or more foil colors to embellish a Design Adhesive like the "Peace" and "Joy" sentiment...



Narrow strips of Pink Punch foil were carefully applied diagonally across the words. Then the Limeburst foil was applied over the rest of the design.
