Happy Fri-Yay, crafty friends!
Today I’m bringing you a little fall cardmaking magic with the gorgeous Lustrous Leaves Hot Foil & Mask/Stencils Bundle!
If you love fall colors, beautiful leaves and a little bit of metallic shine, I think you’re going to love this project. 🍁
🍂 Ink Blending + Hot Foiling
For today’s card, I combined two of my favorite techniques: ink blending and hot foiling.
I started with the coordinating masks from the Lustrous Leaves Bundle and used them to create beautiful, multicolor leaves. I blended together:
- Golden Glow Ink
- Timid Tiger Ink
- Pecan Pie Ink
I love how easily you can mix and layer the colors to create vibrant, autumn-inspired leaves!
The masks include handy alignment notches, making it easy to line everything up as you build your design.
✨ Add Some Metallic Shine!
Once my leaves were ink blended, it was time to add the WOW factor!
The Lustrous Leaves Bundle also includes Hot Foil Dies, which allow you to add gorgeous metallic foil details when used with the Stampin’ Hot Foil System and Stampin’ Hot Foil Rolls.
For this card, I used Gold and Copper Foil to give the leaves a beautiful shimmer and shine. 🍂✨
There’s just something about adding a little metallic detail to a fall card that makes those autumn colors really come alive!

Whether you’re new to hot foiling or just looking for a fun new way to use your masks and stencils, I hope this project gives you some inspiration to get creative.
And remember… you don’t have to wait for a special occasion to make a card. Sometimes the best reason to craft is simply because you want to play with pretty paper, ink and a little bit of foil! 💛
Happy crafting!
