Join us and discover ideas that you can take away for your own cards and projects!

 Just look at all of this gorgeousness!! And in case you didnt notice...the foils match Gina K Cardstocks!  woot!



I cant tell you how excited I was about this line of product from Thermo Web and Gina K!  Up first today we are showcasing the Foil Mates Birthday Essentials and You're Invited .  Up first is the card I made with the Birthday Essentials set:


 I used the Polka dotted background Foil Mate on this one too And also the Birthday Essentials.  This card only took a bit of time because of the banner I cut out for it, lol!  And as we all know, its so very hard to capture shine on our cards!  But believe me, its sooo shiny!  I used the Passionate Pink Fancy Foil on this one.

Up next is a card with the Foil Mate, "You're Invited"  I created a little Invite!  :D

 This is a criss cross card I think its called.  The triangle sides dont move, you insert the info card behind those, like a pocket (maybe a pocket card?  LOL)  This one up top here is with the info card inserted.
And this shows the invite pulled out.  What I love most about this line...im a FAST card maker!  Like my idol and fellow DT  Melanie Muenchinger!!  :D

Ready for more awesome creations?! Just click on the links below for more from Gina and the Cast & Crew:
