    September 19, 2020 / 1 Comment

    Hi there, this is Annie Williams and I’m so thrilled to have the opportunity to share a few projects using the new Christmas Foiled Basics Collection by Yana Smakula.

    Glimmery Holidays with Jean Manis

    September 16, 2020 / 1 Comment

    Hello crafty friends! I’m Jean, a papercrafter living in the Pacific Northwest blogging at Right as Rain. I am delighted to share three winter holiday cards showcasing the Christmas Foiled Basics Collection by Yana Smakula at Spellbinders. With this collection, you’ll create gorgeous, on-trend foiled cards. Grab some cocoa, put on some holiday music, and let’s take a look! You may recall that I am relatively new to foiling with the Glimmer Hot Foil System. This time around, I tried many different color combinations of foil and cardstock.

    September 14, 2020 / No Comments

    I’m delighted to introduce you to my second collection of Glimmer Hot Plates called Yana’s Christmas Foiled Basics. This collection was based on my first collection, Foiled Basics and many items in this new line have a very similar look and feel to them, but with a Holiday twist.

So I couldn’t resist the opportunity to design several Christmas glimmer plates to create elegant foiled Christmas cards. Welcome to the latest segment of What’s New At Spellbinders & FSJ.
