Best Wishes - Modern Essentials dies card for Couture Creations

Hello everyone, Adriana here today using the new release 
Couture Creations  "Modern Essentials" cut, foil and emboss die frames. 
I created a "Best Wishes"  card using some of these dies and teamed them up with the some of foliage dies from the "Lavish Ballroom" collection.





I wanted to create a card using embellishments with some of the foiled elements from the "Lavish Ballroom" cut, foil and emboss dies as well.
The effect of foiling the foil onto the same colour as the card-stock, creates a monotone effect it's so pretty... I foiled Pearl Pink foil with Pink cardstock and Green foil with green cardstock. The Modern Essentials nesting dies frames can foil, cut and emboss at the same time but the most excellent part is that if you don't have a foiling machine you can still use these nesting dies with your die cutting machine. You will not get the foil part on your card-stock, but you can ink the dies with ink colour and that will transfer on to your card-stock.
Oh the possibilities are unless :)
To create the topper of my card, I foiled with my Go Press and foil machine,  one of the Oval and Scalloped Oval cut, foil and emboss dies. Also foiling the centre frame die of the Decorative Oval frame from the CO726455 die.
Remembering when using these unique dies with your Go Press and Foil machine, you must place your Metal conversion plate inside the platform of the machine.

Thank You - Easel card - Modern Essentials Dies - Couture Creations

Hello everyone, Welcome back, today I have created another card using the new release Couture Creations
  "Modern Essentials"     -  Cut, foil and emboss dies. 

This time I created an Easel card using one of the Nesting Frames, in particular the Cut Foil and Emboss Nesting Bracket frames CO726459.
I just love how these dies can be used just with your normal die cutting machine, with no foiling. This shape is so versatile as well.












CO726459 Nesting Bracket Frames Cut,foil & emboss die.



I also created this panel using a die with the Go Press and Foil machine and of course, gold foil. The end result is an outline of the die design onto the card stock.

Modern Essential Cut, Foil & Emboss Dies - Couture Creations

Hello everyone, and welcome to my blog - today I wanted to share some cards that I  have created with the 
Couture Creations  "Modern Essentials" Cut, foil and emboss die frames.

These dies can be used with the Go Press and Foil Machine to achieve the foiled edges around the shape, but they can also be used in your normal manual die cutting machine. Of course, you will not get the foiled edges but if you stamp ink around the edges of these dies and place them through your die cut machine, you will get a cut out piece ready to play with and create your project.

As in the care below I stamped the edges of the ornate frame with Pigment Purple ink and run it through my die cutting machine.





I used the Scalloped Oval die and foiled the edges with the Go Press and Foil Machine.




Here is another card below using the same die with the all the three pieces Foiled with the Go Press and Foil machine.

Modern Essentials - Chandlier frame Cut foil and Emboss 
CO726464 - Chandlier Frames 



Very elegant and simple 
These dies are so awesome , you can create fabulous cards they look so professional.
