April 10 Dear Dahlia Workshop

I entered this card in the February, 2024 Altenew Inspiration Challenge at blog.altenew.com.

While the card has hot foiling on it, you may choose any background you like. If you do wish to do some hot foiling, I will be demonstrating the normal hot foiling technique and using the left-over foil for a second hot foil image. For this I will be using the Pink Fresh solid plate. Several companies have solid hot foil plates for this purpose.

Card #1

Card #2

I turned the background to portrait style so the hearts are in their correct position. However, this time I used the reverse image; the foil left over from the first foiling. It’s a much more solid background with more gold showing.
