Reverse Foiling in Teal

 I love my hot foiling machine and the results are amazing. It's very difficult to photograph the depth and shine to show here... 

Reverse foiling is using the original foil from the first image and using a solid plate to create an image using the leftover foil. It doesn't always work 100% but it's a nice option to use that leftover foil rather than throwing it away. 

I used the same image (a Better Press plate) for all of these cards. One is simply foiled but the other three all have reverse foiled images. If you look closely, you will notice that the reverse foiled images line up with the original images (two cards). 

I chose to use hot foiled sentiments for each of these - they just "fit"! 


Enjoy,

Alyson
