Spellbinders Glimmer of the Month Club from February

Hi All! I finally had a chance to play with Februarys Glimmer of the Month kit from February. I try and get to each kit before the next one shows up! ( I subscribe to the Glimmer and their Small Die of the Month) They are so fun, versatile and priced pretty darn nice! For me, they give me a chance to create some cards that I am not coloring. Todays card turned out so elegant. I played around a lot with this hot foil plate before I came up with the card I made. Initially I wanted to color all the flowers, I even got it to foil on my Hammermill beautifully. (Yay! saving that trick for the future) But I was not happy with those results so I tried again and now, on with the Show & Tell…

Prism foil on a glimmering paper!

The sentiment was foiled in Lavender Petal and picks up the Ink Drop paper nicely.

Other than the hot foil itself (which I consider an embellishment!) the only other embellie is the Honey Bee Crystal Clear Mix gems.

  • Cards base of Accent Opaque White 120lb

Spellbinders Small Die of the Month January 2023

Hi All! I finally got around to using my SDOTM for January from Spellbinders. Did you know that Spellbinders has some really great club kits? I get the Small Die of the Month and the Glimmer of the Month. They are super fun and economical. I am always amazed at the price difference when they are available to the general public! Click here to check them out. Todays card is all die cutting and gluing. I have actually been doing a lot more die cut cards. If you don’t know, I teach a monthly card class in my community. I also sometimes have extra kits for sale from those classes. Check out my Local Classes page for more info. Now on with the Show & Tell…

The Ampersand was cut twice, once in Pear Pizzaz and once in the flowered paper. They were glued offset form each other, then after adding the die cuts I added 3D crystal lacquer JUST to the flowered pattern paper.

The sentiments are hot foiled in pastel pink. The color of this foil is amazing!
