Hi everyone Adriana here today, and it's my turn on the Couture Creations blog.
Today, I wanted to showcase how quick, easy and versatile the Cut, Foil & emboss dies are to create with, so if you do not have a Go Press and Foil machine - you can just ink some colour with some pigment inks onto the Cut, Foil & Emboss dies, place some card stock on top and sandwich it through your manual die cutting machine. It will cut and leave a stamped ink image on to cardstock or paper, it so super easy !!
The Cut, Foil & Emboss dies, papers and dies and hot foil stamps that I created for my two cards today are from the new release GENTLEMAN"S EMPORIUM COLLECTION
from Couture Creations.
I also wanted to show how I created the bases or backgrounds of my two cards, and by adding some flowers - I have a feminine card and but adding a Bow tie to the other card a masculine. This collection is so wonderful for both masculine or feminine projects!!
Here are my two very easy and quick cards
The techniques and step by step tutorial is just below the photos.
Enjoy every moment card

How super easy it is to create with Cut, Foil & Emboss dies.
Hello everyone, today I wanted to share a special off the page project, created with one of the Couture Creations "Modern Essentials"Cut, foil and emboss die frames, in particular the Nesting Bracket frames CO726459. Using this nesting frame to create a special effect of illusion of a shadow box frame.
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. For my project, once I cut the dies out I inked around the edges of the left overs from the nesting dies - then layered them on top of each other. This creates a shadow effect illusion. I have set my project inside a simple white frame - I hope you like... I then foiled some of the foliages with the Lavish Ballroom collection "Sweeping Botanicals" CO725909 and Lavish Ballroom "Young Stems" CO725904 Adding some diecut flowers from the C'est Le Vie collection... Using another cut and foil die the Nouveau Cut, Foil"Hanging Cage" CO725846, this time I just inked the die with an ink pad and ran it through the die cutting machine.
