Hi everyone!
I am back again this month for the Heartfelt Creations January Alumni Blog Hop!
Since Valentines Day is coming soon I wanted to make for you today a card that has that extra special element for your loved one.
I am a big fan of the Big Bang Theory and with this theme in mind I tried a new technique out for this card. I used foil! So in honor of Dr. Sheldon Cooper’s “Fun with Flags” I will call this post Joann’s Fun with Foil! lol

Hop ends on Monday, January 28th, 2019 at 11.59pm EST.
Have fun and good luck.
Here is a closer look at the detail created when using the foil. You can foil any die, not just the dies created specifically for foiling. What you achieve is a foiled image where the cut lines would have cut. I just loved how this turned out.

I love Valentine’s Day. It is my favorite holiday. My husband and I celebrate it for 14 days. We give each other a small handmade gift each day (cards from me, woodworking from him). We leave little love notes, stickers and candies to be found. It’s so much fun. We’ve been married 50 years.

I am obsessing over your white background with the red overlay – Gorgeous! I don’t know how you did it but it is gorgeous! I see so many different techniques in this card and I am sure it was time consuming and it shows in your final product. Your delicate flowers, double tied bow, hand made flowers , accordion heart, intricate dies, colored leaves/petals/stems to the 3D effect- every detail is exquisite. Fabulous job! Thank you for sharing.
