Embossed and Die Cut Valentine Card

An embossed and die cut Valentine Card in classic colors is sure to be a hit. It can be tricky to work with foiled paper and not leave dents or other marks. Check out the tips below if you have struggles.

The best card starts with a nicely layered base of interesting papers. Here I chose a pearlescent patterned cardstock, star embossed foiled paper, and black card stock. The embossed piece is rather intricate and it took some time to remove all the bits.

 The wings are die-cut from gold foiled paper and embossed with the feather design. placing the wings directly on the cared would have caused them to lose shape. I also cut and embossed additional wings from cardstock to give the foiled paper a cushion. I ran Tape Runner directly on the cardstock then added the foiled paper. This preserved the embossed design.

The heart is popped up off the card front. I added strips of foam and again applied the adhesive to the foam rather than the foiled paper.

 This is my first project for the Tape Runner Design Team and I am really liking the product. Purchase Tape Runner with Amazon Prime or on Etsy.
