Newton’s Nook – Sparkle and Shine with Foiling Christmas Lights

Welcome again! I have a Newton’s Nook fun, foiled card using the old school way – transfer gel instead of hot foiling. This is a great way to use your stencils for added shine and interest on your cards.

The Light Strings stencil is a 2-piece set so I started with the cord and inked it green on a piece of white cardstock. Then I spread Thermoweb transfer gel blanco through the second layer, which has all the lights. I set it aside to dry and came back later.

While it was drying I stamped and heat embossed a sentiment from Oval Snowflakes on black cardstock. I used a Circle Frame die that fit perfectly to cut it out. Then I got the Frames Squared die set out and cut a white label shape from there.

When the transfer gel was dry, I ran it through my laminator in a Craft & Carrier sheet with shattered rainbow foil. After foiling I die cut the panel with the largest Frames & Flags die and popped it up on a white card base with foam tape. Next I added the label and sentiment circle with the same foam.
