Pretty Pink Posh + Therm O Web Collaboration Day 3
Good morning! It’s Lindsey here today with a fun project combining some fabulous products from Pretty Pink Posh and Thermoweb. Using Deco Foil Transfer Sheets really adds a fun “wow” factor to this otherwise simple card.

For my project I used the Deco Foil Transfer Sheets in Jade, Deep Blue, and Magenta. I pulled out my ink pads, found matching colors, and then lightly blended on the ink using the Layered Butterfly Stencils. I blended ink on just the first two stencil layers and on the third and final layer, I used Deco Foil Transer Gel Blanco. This layer shows the details on the butterfly wings. The Transfer Gel takes about an hour to dry, so while I waited I worked on a second foiling project. (More on that to come!)
Once the gel was dry, I cut small squares of the Jade, Deep Blue, and Magenta transfer sheets and laid them on top of the dried gel. Next, I placed the entire card inside a folded piece of parchment paper and ran it through my laminating machine. You don’t have to have a fancy laminator for this. Mine is “as old as the hills” as my grandma would say (I think it’s about 15 years old!), and it did the trick just fine to adhere the foil to my card.
I kept the card layout simple, so the background could really shine…hee hee (pun intended ;) ). I simply placed my butterfly background on top of a light blue card base, trimmed a flag to ground the sentiment, and cut a circle using the Birthday Circles Coordinating Dies.
I added just a touch more foiling to my card by cutting the Hello Script die out of Deco Foil Peel and Stick Toner Sheets and running it through the laminator with a Deep Blue Deco Foil Transfer Sheet. It adds a beautiful shine that compliments the background nicely.
And that’s it my friends! These products were so easy and fun to work with, and I can’t stop smiling at the beautiful shine on my card. I hope you’ll give them a try!
And if you are interested in seeing the second project I made while the Transfer Gel Blanco was drying, you can pop on over to my blog HERE. I’ll give you a peek below.
