Holiday Cheer Glimmer!

Hey there friends!  I've discovered something....you can really make a lot of elegant, yet simple, and fast cards with the Spellbinders Hot Foil Glimmer machine and foil plates.
This is the time of year that I feel like I can not get them all done.  And today, I made 5 cards in about an hour.

I used two different plates from the new Spellbinders Holiday Cheer Foil plate collection!  These two plates are really workhorses because they are big, bold and look fantastic foiled on anything. 




This first card was made foiling on a piece of patterned Christmas paper.  Who doesn't have a ton of that laying around?  It's so quick, easy and elegant.

The Merry Christmas Banner Glimmer Hot Foil Plate Holiday 2019 is one plate that includes a stunning double-layer ribbon banner with the words Merry Christmas on it. The banner lays on a background of holly berry and leaves, ornament and other whimsical designs.

Glimmer Hot Foil Plates add stunning foil features to any project from cards to mixed media and beyond. They are designed to be used with Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil System (or other compatible hot foil system). Depending on its design, some plates may be used for letterpress and embossing.

Approximate Size:
3.80 x 3.70 in. 9.70 x 9.40 cm






My second set of cards used the Reindeer Games Foil Plate




Reindeer Games Glimmer Hot Foil Plate Holiday 2019 is one plate that includes the names of Santa’s flying reindeers in various fonts and designs surrounded on both side with vine and star motifs.

Glimmer Hot Foil Plates add stunning foil features to any project from cards to mixed media and beyond. They are designed to be used with Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil System (or other compatible hot foil system). Depending on its design, some plates may be used for letterpress and embossing.

Approximate Size:

Joyous Bird - FSJ Stamp of the Month kit


Greetings friends!  Today I made my first cards for the upcoming Christmas holiday.  I know it seems like Summer just ended but I need to get a head start on the cards and tags and all the holiday making because it will be here soon!

This month's "Joyous Bird" creates gorgeous floral cards, scrapbook pages, and more.  You can see the stamp set HERE.

The set this month really lends itself to being heat embossed.  Its a beautiful, delicate dove....so elegant and sends the perfect message of Peace and Joy.


For this card I embossed the bird and the branches in gold.  I colored the florals with markers, and then I fussy cut everything out.

Then I took a piece of blue card stock, and ink blended Chipped Sapphire Distress ink.  I used a white pigment ink to stamp the stars and snowflakes.  I assembled the cut out pieces as shown and added a few sequins for some extra sparkle.


My second card used much of the same techniques except I layered some gold card stock as a frame around the edge.  Again, I used my favorite must have Spellbinders Hemstitch rectangles.  (you really need these!)
