Hello, Crafters.
After I’d shared my Gold Mistletoe Friends card with you yesterday, I also posted it to my Facebook page.
It was very well received, and I was asked questions about the Fabulous Foil Designer Acetate (FFDA).
In the catalogue it’s described as gold foil on one side, and looks like silver on the other.
It’s a stunning product, but so easily missed in the catalogue!
Even if it does get noticed, its beauty doesn’t show through.
Hopefully,
I’ve remedied this albeit it on a very small scale with today’s video.
Yesterday’s card featured the gold foil side of the FFDA, and in the
video I’ve used the silver-looking side.
Apart from changing the design of the acetate, I kept the cards identical so it would give the opportunity of a fair comparison.
In
the catalogue, page 194, the acetate is offered as a pack of 12″ x 12″
sheets, 6 in a pack, 2 each of three different designs.
You
can see two of the designs in the three cards I’ve made so far.
The
third design, which I show on the video – both the gold and the silver
sides – is dots.
I
like both sides equally, and I would descibe the silver on the acetate
as having a matt appearance – I hope this can be seen on the video.
I think that’s about it for today. Until tomorrow, happy crafting,
JanB.
Hi Jan, I'm just about to view your video, but I'm posting a comment first and wanted to say more yesterday. I am SO glad that you're shining a spotlight on this product because it really is so lovely. I used it on a few of my Christmas cards last year and loved it right away. Unfortunately, it is one of those items that could easily be overlooked in the catalogue (there are always SOME it seems) but this is just super. Now, I'm looking forward to viewing the video … you KNOW how much I love this stamp set too! I may be back! Lol Thanks again!
Super video as always Jan, and so glad you did this! Hope sales soar for this gorgeous product now, as a result! Lol Thanks so much for sharing again.
