I always have the best intentions to use all my supplies on hand…I mean, why else would you buy them, right? LOL!
I have a lot of specialty papers in my stash that never get the love they deserve, so I decided to give some love and attention to the Red & Gold Foil Sheets (Item 153510) from the 2020 August – December Mini Holiday Catalog!
Slimline cards are all the rage right now and I absolutely love the look…but they can be tricky to design and fill up. I create the size that I want, regardless of whether it fits in a #10 envelope.
This one is a tad smaller than a “standard” slimline.
Use a Stampin’ Up! Paper Trimmer to cut a piece of Whisper White Thick Cardstock to 6 3/4 x 8. Score and fold at 3 1/2.
Cut a piece of Green and a piece of Red Foil to 8 x 1/2. Adhere to the bottom of the card stacked as shown.
Crop several circles of Green and Red Foil using a Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, along with the following dies:
- Layering Circle Dies (Smaller Sizes)
- Playful Alphabet Dies (O & 9)
- Wreath Builder (Circle)
Adhere and trim as shown with Stampin’ Seal, Mini Glue Dots & Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Use the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine to crop the three layers of “Bright” in Whisper White, Green & Red Foil.
TIP: Adhere the Red Foil to an Adhesive Sheet prior to cropping it so that it can easily be adhered to the Green Foil.

I wonder if you have a suggestion to prevent foils from marring and/or losing luster while running them through die machine. I love these colorful foils! Beautiful work!
Thanks, Ivy! My suggestion is to use a clean top plate and to cut the foil almost to the size of the die, close to the edge. Does that make sense?
I think you did an awesome job showing the red and green foils some love. Did you use a thin sheet of tracing paper over foil when die cutting?
Thanks, Ann! I did not use anything over the foil, I did use a clean top plate and I cut each piece pretty close to size before running it through the machine.
