Happy Fall Y’all! I had some fall-themed collection on my desk so I decided to use them and our 3D Foam Leaves to create a Leaf Banner Thank You Card. Hi, Margie here today to show you how I created some interest to foiling without any special tools!
Leaf Banner Card Panel Layers
For an A2-size (5.5 x 4.25″) standard white cardstock card base, I cut a 4 7/8 x 2-inch yellow patterned strip of paper. The larger patterned paper was 4 7/8 x 3-inch.
The larger patterned piece, I paper torn the bottom edge before adhering together with the yellow paper to form a 4 7/8 x 3-inch panel. I used the E-Z Runner® Grand Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser to secure the layers. The panel was popped up with Crafty Foam Tape Black 108ft.
Designer’s Tip: Use the rounded end of a bone folder to burnish the adhesive to secure the layers.
Leaf Banner Details
I tucked the twine behind the foam tape and secure the banner front with Adhesive Lines.
Now to create the foiled leaves with the combination of the 3D Foam Leaves and Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Nature Colors. View the 3D Foam Leaves Foiling Technique video below to see how I created a two color leaf.
This is the results below! Designer’s Tip: Use an anti-static powder tool to alleviate any stickiness from the foam.
Card Sentiment
Stamp the sentiment with dark brown ink on a 2.25 x 0.50-inch strip of yellow pattern paper. Trim the strip to fit the card front. Secure and lift the strip with 3D Foam Strips. Then add the large orange rhinestone at the end of the sentiment to finish.
Thanks for stopping by!
