Here are instructions on how to create today's card:

• Cut & fold A2 card base from watermelon cardstock.
• Ink the Plaid press plate on a BetterPress system with peony ink, then press it into cotton paper.
• Using the washi tape hinge method, layer the cotton paper with satin gold foil to a hot foil system. Let it heat up, then run through a diecut machine.
• Hot foil the Delicate Rosebuds in satin gold foil to white cardstock, then use the solid hot foil plate to foil the leftover piece.
• Diecut the solid foiled rosebuds with the coordinating die.
• Diecut the plaid background with the largest Blanket Stitched Rectangle, then with a Blanket Stitched Oval.
• Diecut the oval frame with two Blanket Stitched Oval dies from gold glitter cardstock.
• Stamp the sentiment in detail black ink, then diecut with two additional layers of white cardstock. Stack & glue together.
• Adhere the plaid panel to the A2 card base, then mount the oval frame to the middle with foam adhesive.
• Arrange the rosebuds inside the oval as shown.
• Attach the sentiment to the lower left corner.
• Accent with pixie dust ombre glitter drops to finish.

I won't say that the foiling ended in perfect results, but it still looks really pretty! That could be because of the cotton paper, or maybe I didn't have enough pressure. But in the end, I am still really thrilled with out it turned out! I hope you'll try combining both letterpress and foiling together. It's stunning!
