For my first card, I started by foiling the background using the Polka Party Foil-Mates and Silver Sequins Fancy Foils. After I had the polka dots foiled, I sponged on some Distress Oxide ink and then stamped one of the flowers from the Stately Flowers 9 set all over using the same ink.
For the focal image, I die cut the Invitations - Wedding Foil-Mates out using the Single Stitched Rectangle Die Set. I foiled the sentiment using some Silver Sequins Fancy Foils, just like I did on the background.
For the inside of the card, I carried the same design over from the front.
My second card is a bit more bold and modern. I started by foiling the Swirls & Flourishes Foil-Mates with some Grass Green Fancy Foils. For the focal image, I cut out one of the Invitations - Save the Date Foil-Mates. I did not foil this one as I liked the bold black look. For embellishment, I die cut the open heart (from the Double Stitched Circle Die Set) out of Black Onyx and Grass Green cardstock.
