    September 4, 2020 / No Comments

    Hello, Spellbinders and FSJ friends! Yasmin here, today I’m back with another Christmas season project so, I’ll be sharing with you these 2 inspiration projects showcasing the new: Sparkling Christmas Collection. Simple Landscape Christmas Card To begin with, these projects are assuming that you already know how-to-foil with the glimmer hot foil system but, if for some reason you’re not familiar you can find many tutorials on Spellbinders YouTube Channel so with that said, start by setting the Glimmer Hot Foil System Platform and the Platinum 6 Die Cutting and Embossing Machine on your craft table, and while the platform is heating up; Line up over an A2 size white…

    Sparkling Christmas Inspiration – Foiled Cardmaking Ideas with Jenny

    September 3, 2020 / No Comments

    ​Hi there fellow crafters, it’s Jenny from JCCards here! I’m excited to be guesting here on the Spellbinders blog, sharing two card projects I created using the gorgeous new Sparkling Christmas collection. Both of my projects today use Glimmer plates from the collection and I was inspired by some of the gorgeous colors of glimmer foils available that aren’t what you think of as traditional Christmas colors.  For those of you who haven’t started a Glimmer collection, believe me the effect is stunning, and I’m addicted. If you haven’t used the Glimmer Hot Foil System before (or even if you have), I highly recommend you check out the Spellbinders YouTube…

    Sparkling Christmas – Foiling and Die Cutting with Jean Manis

    August 31, 2020 / No Comments

    Hello crafty friends! I’m Jean, a paper crafter living in the Pacific Northwest blogging at Right as Rain. I am delighted to share cards combining two of my favorite techniques – die-cutting and foiling – using the Sparkling Christmas Collection at Spellbinders. For all three cards, I’ve used a color scheme of red, green, and gold. With this collection, you’ll create elegant and distinctive holiday cards. Christmas Wishes Joyful Tree Card The first two cards illustrate the versatility of the Joyful Christmas Tree die set. With the die set, I’ve crafted an A2-size card and a square 4 ¼” card which I paired foiled sentiments from the Christmas Essential Glimmer…
