A Shiny Stenciled Background

For the background of my card, I used Altenew’s Foil Relief Paste with the Luxe Lattice stencil to create that gorgeous metallic shine. This paste adds wonderful raised texture, and when you apply foil after it sets, it creates the most stunning metallic finish. It’s a fantastic way to turn a simple stenciled background into something really eye-catching. And the best part is there is no heat required!!

I love how the geometric pattern gives the card a modern feel while the metallic shine adds a bit of glamour.

Dewy Floral Details

To add a delicate finishing touch, I used Altenew’s Crystal 3D Gel to create tiny water droplets on the florals. The gel dries clear and dimensional, which makes it perfect for adding realistic dewdrop effects. It’s a small detail, but it really brings the flowers to life and adds another layer of dimension to the design.

A Little Shine + Dimension Goes a Long Way

Both of these products are wonderful for adding extra interest to your cards. The Foil Relief Paste brings that beautiful metallic pizzazz to backgrounds, while the Crystal 3D Gel is perfect for dimensional accents like droplets, glaze effects, or glossy details.
