We R Memory Keepers Foil Quill

As the We R Memory Keepers Foil Quill launched at the trade show this past winter, everyone was beyond excited about the potential of this innovative tool. The Foil Quill turns your digital die cutting machine into a tool that foils! The best part is, the Foil Quill tool kit comes with adapters for the Silhouette, Brother Scan n Cut, Cricut, and the Sizzix digital machines. So you can use this tool with YOUR machine! 

The Foil Quill plugs into a USB-based power source (think your computer, a power bank, etc.) and heats up. Using the pen tool and set up on your machine, the Foil Quill essentially draws in foil!! Look at the stunning results on this frame I made for the We R Memory Keepers blog!

You can use the design files from your software, ttf fonts, or you can purchase thumb drives from several of your favorite American Craft's artists! Heidi Swapp, Amy Tangerine, and Paige Evans and Kelly Creates, that I used on my project here.

The Foil Quill took 2 simple pieces of card stock and created a stunning frame. Impressive!

Who are those two kids in that photo? I mean seriously. We were SO young. Its hard to believe it has been 20 years!

Here is links to all the supplies available for the Foil Quill.
-You can purchase the three different thickness of pens individually, or as a kit. I would lean towards the kit, as it has all three included, some small rolls of foil, and washi.
-There are 4 digital drives of artwork from American Crafts artists, and also 2 more with whimical art and Christmas/winter art.
-There are sheets of foil (4x6) or rolls that are 12" wide. All the colors are lovely!
-Washi is used to hold the foil in place over the medium you are foiling.

wedding card

It is the wedding season. Time to make those extra-special cards for an extra-special day. My card above features not only letterpress, but also a handmade wire-shaped word. I created the word using the new We R Memory Keepers Happy Jig. The tool is very cool! It comes with all the pegs, the board, and a wire cutter. Plus, there are many colors of wire that can be purchased as well. The Happy Jig even has its own Instagram account, full of instructions on how to make all sorts of designs. Check out all the information on the We R Memory Keepers Blog.

P.S. Yes, that is my veil from my own wedding day. It means so much when things like that get to come out and be useful. The roses are from my grandmother's funeral, and the necklace from my dearest friend and roommate, that I wore at her wedding. The love here is very, very real.

Sincerely Yours,

congrats

Simon Says Stamp just had another release of fabulous products! This release is called Pure Sunshine and it just that, bright, happy, fun, and bursting with spring and summer!

Today I am sharing a card made with Simon Says Stamp Clear Stamps Married and Simon Says Stamp Cake and Congrats Craft Dies. I love that you can purchase these separately or as a set!

I started by die cutting the cute scalloped rectangle from Fancy Pants Collecting Memories patterned paper. I also die cut the word congrats from the same paper. The size of the word is fantastic for cards and I know I will be using this one a lot!

I stamped the cake onto more patterned paper and then die cut it with the coordinating die. Being a huge cake decorating fan, this one has lots of possibilities! The final touch is a resin flower from Fancy Pants. 

thanks for stopping by!
