February Glimmer Foiled Card for Spellbinders

Today's card features the February Glimmer Monthly Club subscription from Spellbinders. The "Spring Canopy" kit includes several sentiment hot foil plates, the leaf hot foil plate, two sentiment outline dies, an edger die for the leaf plate, along with a roll of hot foil . Scroll down for more photos and creative details, along with my supply list at the end of this post.

I received the Lavender Petal hot foil roll with my kit, although colors may vary.

I started by hot foiling with the leaf hot foil plate at the bottom of my paper, then turning my foil plate upside down and foiling the top section, using my Glimmer Hot Foil System.

You also need a die cut system to run your Glimmer platform through. I use my Spellbinders Platinum 6.

The paper that I'm using is from an ombre paper pad. I'll have it linked in my supply list. You can also do ink blending if you prefer, then foil on top. Just make sure your ink is heat set, or dries naturally.

Next, I used my Spellbinders Splatter White for paint splatters on my foiled card panel. The Splatter White is highly concentrated and there is only a small amount in the jar but it will last a long while. Just a little bit mixed with a tiny amount of water will do the job.

I usually mix on a small acrylic block, then flick the paint off the edge with a wet paintbrush.

How many times have you been working on a card, then lose a crucial piece while crafting? It happens more than I care to admit! I created a foiled sentiment and then it disappeared. Rather than start over, which honestly, wouldn't have taken long. I decided to use the negative foiling leftover with my solid hot foil plate and white cardstock. This is also a great way to use up your negative foils.

Just switch out the cardstock color, for whichever color you'd like to peek through for your sentiment.

I also created an extra foiled leafy die cut for the inside of my card. I decided to add a foiled strip at the bottom edge of die cut. I simply adhered a trimmed strip from an adhesive roll, used my Spellbinders Tool N One to peel off the top layer, then rubbed on some the Lavendar Petal hot foil to the adhesive.

I recommend using a bone folder to burnish the foiling before peeling off the top liner of foil. This is to make sure you don't have any blotchy spots where the foiling didn't quite adhere.

If you do have any small spots where the foiling didn't adhere, just press more of the foil in that space and rub. 

I finished the inside of my card with a sentiment from the February Stamp & Die of the Month Club subscription, paired with some Catherine Pooler Ink.

I also glued some Spellbinders Sequins for even more sparkle. Spellbinders has side and top fold A2 size cards on their site, however, I prefer the top fold (vertical) cards because they're so much easier to stand for display. You want the recipient to display your card and not toss it! I'll have both linked in my supply list, if you'd like to take a look.
