I have a couple of cards featuring the SNARKY HEARTS GLIMMER HOT FOIL PLATE & DIE SET from Spellbinders. I think they are a versatile supply that can be used all year. Having them made up ahead of time to use as elements of interest on my cards will be handy.
This set is an ADD-On to the January 2019 Glimmer Hot Foil Kit of the Month set, Signed, Sealed, Delivered. I do not have that Glimmer Kit but it didn't stop me from creating:))
My favorite way of using the Glimmer Plates is the Faux Letterpress technique. Which means no Foil is required. It's Super Quick and Easy too!
Take a look:
- I simply placed all the Snarky Heart Glimmer Plates onto 110# Neenah White CS and ran them through my cutting machine with the Embossing Rubber mat . This created a full panel of letterpressed hearts with the snarky sentiments raised in the middle.
- Next I used the heart shaped die to cut each one out.
- Blending brushes made short work of inking them up to look like pretty pastel candies!
- Then I took an alcohol marker and carefully lined the raised sentiment with color.
- Finally, I glued them in a random cluster to my cardfront... as if they were tumbling out of a bag of candy.
How FUN is that?!?
