Hello everyone! Welcome to day 17 of La-La Land Crafts Christmas Advent 24 days of tutorials!
Vic here with you today to share a fun tutorial with you.

I wanted to share with you how I hot foil my La-La Land Dies using a hot foiling machine.

PAPER CUTS & SCORING
Card size 4 1/4 x 5 7/8 inches



For this card I show you how I created a hot foiled background using the trees from the Snow Globe Die and I used the smaller snowflake from the Three Snowflakes Die.
I used the Deer Builder Die and I also used papers from the Merry & Bright Paper Pack for his scarf and hat. 


This card I made a hot foiled background using the Autumn Things Die and the Stump with Twig* Die. I show you how you can colour your hot foiled images too add some extra fun to your backgrounds. 


In the video I try hot foiling onto Vellum. This was a really nice effect and I added a white tag underneath the vellum tag to make this stand out a little more. I used the Owl Builder Die along with the Bear Builder Die. I think these critters look so cute on your cards and tags. I die cut the scarf and hat using the Christmas Cheer Paper Pack. I love how the pink and cream look on the bear.


This is one of the tags I made using the Poinsettia Die. I think this is so pretty and would make any gift extra special. I love how the foiling looks on darker card too. 

Hoping you all have a great week of Creating

    Oh, these are so cute. I especially love the pastels/neutrals you chose for the owl and bear card. But they are all just wonderful! I have really enjoyed seeing how you put your dies to work. The backgrounds add so much interest to the main focus, it's amazing.

    Loved your video. I guess we have to have this machine in order to get the same effect with the foiling? Probably can’t do that with a laminator. Haha. That’s how I do the rest of my foiling. Thank you for sharing.

    Love all your ideas. I wanted to do the foiling, but when I bought the machine, it was broken and I had to return it. Didn't want to take the chance on another.

    ... it feels wrong commenting on your tutorial but I do have to say THANK YOU for sharing your creative inspiration and top tips, your foiling, colouring and critters are delightful. I've not used foils with dies before and they sure add a luscious touch, your colouring with them looks lovely too!
