    February 6, 2020 / No Comments

    Hello friends! My name is Jung AhSang, and I am so excited to be returning with another guest post on the Spellbinders blog. If you’d like to follow my crafty projects, my blog is jungahsang.wordpress.com. When I saw the products in the new Foil Basics collection by Yana Smakula I immediately knew I had to make a polka dot card; I love polka dots! Today, I’m working with all the products from this collection. I am using the Polka Dot Strip, Yana’s Sentiments set, the Foliage Border set, and the Organic Foliage set. For my first card, I wanted to showcase the polka dot strip. On a piece of light…

    February 3, 2020 / No Comments

    Hi Spellbinder’s friends! This is Lea Lawson, and I’m excited to be sharing a couple of cards I’ve made featuring the new Foiled Basics Collection by Yana Smakula. When Yana shared these new foiling products with me, the first thing that came to mind was the classy & bold colors that are often used in Kate Spade collections. So that was the jumping off point for my inspiration for my card set. Instructions: Create (2) A2 top folding card base out of white cardstock. Foil light pink cardstock in Polished Brass using Polka Dot Strip, then cut into two strips Foil navy blue & light pink cardstock in Rose Gold…

    October 9, 2019 / 2 Comments

    Hello friends! It’s Keeway from Kiwi Koncepts and I’m here to share with you some projects featuring the NEW October Glimmer Plate Collection! I absolutely love gold foiling with this machine and the results are always stunning. The more I work with it, the easier it gets and it opens up for me to try these techniques with it. Today there will be lots of foiling and ink blending! Thank You So Very Much Card When I started to learn how to use the glimmer machine, I found it easiest to work with heat foil images that I could also die cut after. It was easy to remove small amounts…

    Hello, Spellbinder’s friends! It’s Marie here from Marie Nicole Designs. I am excited to share a few glimmered cards with you featuring the October Glimmer Plates from Spellbinders! There are several fun new sets to work with, and I love that some of the sets also have coordinating dies so you can Glimmer and then die cut to arrange on a card. Thank You So Very Much Card I’ll be sharing several cards with you today, but my first card features the Glimmering Layered Flowers set. I started this card by Glimmering all the flowers and leaves onto some Bristol smooth cardstock using Copper foil from Spellbinders. Then, I used…
