Step 5. Continue adding color and layering different inks, allowing them to blend just as watercolor paints would and let the Foil-Mates sheet dry.
Step 6. Once dry, cover the colored mat with Gina K. Designs Fancy Foils™ 6" x 8" • Silver Sequins and run it through a laminator. (Crafty tip: The laminator will always flatten your watercolored backgrounds perfectly.)
Step 7. Die cut a sentiment from Gina K. Designs Foil-Mates™ Sentiments • True Friend using the new Gina K. Designs (3) Nested Circle Dies • Single Stitch Design • Small Set.
Step 8. Cover the die cut sentiment with a piece of Silver Sequins transfer foil and run it through the laminator to create a matching piece for your background.
Step 9. Cut a piece of Gina K. Designs Sheer Satin Fancy Ribbon 5/8" x 10 yd • White/Gold long enough to go across the colored background.
Step 10. Attach the ribbon to the back of the mat with iCraft Adhesive™ Tape • 1/4 in
Step 11. Then use Zots™ Singles • 3-D to adhere the sentiment die cut to the background, placing it right on the center, on top of the ribbon.
Step 12. Finally use 3D White Foam Sticky Strips • 1/2 in to add the colored Foil-Mates sheet to an A2 card base cut from Gina K. Designs Premium Cardstock 8.5" x 11" • White
