Hello everyone today I have created another Merry Christmas Card using the Hot Foiling Pen to created a foiled unique background with Heat Activated foils and Stencils.

Including 3 techniques 1. Hot foiling pen with stencils to create a unique background. 2. creating a foiled word sentiment with die cut sentiments and layering them on top of each other with glue and then using the GoPress and Foil machine to add a layer of fabulous Red Hologram foil. 3. Adhering Double side tape (DieCut N Bond) onto cardstock and layering a sheet of foil over the top to create a wonderful Hologram foiled card stock background. I created two cards using these techniques - Thanks for watching :)
