The glimmer plates

The glimmer plates in this kit are designed to create a foiled geometric pattern on different materials and they have two different ends.

Two plates end in a complete hexagonal shape and the other two ends in half-hexagon, so that the border dies included in the set are slightly different too.

The Border Dies

You will get four dies. Two are labeled with the letter “A” and the other two are labeled with the letter “B”.

See picture below, you will see the letter "A" or the letter "B" embossed just on the edge of the dies.

Any of these dies will create a 0.3 mm white border around the hexagonal foiled image.

However, in the picture above I placed the dies in a different way so you can also use them to cut just around the edge of the foiled images and not white edge will be visible.

This means that all the dies can coordinate with any of the glimmer plates included in the kit.

The Aura Foil

Ok so now let me show you Aurora Foil included in the Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil - December 2019.

Foil is hard to photograph but Aura Foil is a gorgeous golden iridescent foil.

I combined Aura and Cooper foils to add accents to the blue box in the picture below and

Aura and T eal foils for the green box.

I used a die set to create the boxes but this type of boxes are super easy to make I have a video -tutorial here to show you how to make them - no dies required.

I also used Glimmering Butterflies, Glimmering Layered Flowers and Everyday Sentiments II Glimmer plates to decorate and add a greeting and a banner to the boxes.

That's all for today. I hope you like these projects and ideas.

CHOCOLATE MATCHES BOX TUTORIAL + GOING GLOBAL STAMPIN' UP! GLOBAL DESIGN PROJECT CHALLENGE #20

January 25, 2016

Today on Global Design Project Challenge #20 we are CASING Connie Collins ! Yah, Connie is a very talented American Stampin' Up! Demonstrator and when I visited her blog last time she made me realize that I haven't use the gorgeous Hardwood Background Stamp by Stampin' Up! as I should. She got so many beautiful projects made with this stamp that I haven't been only inspired by her card today but for her entire work. It is truly an honour to be part of GDP with her.

WATCH VIDEO TUTORIAL HERE!

SEE RELATED BLOG POST HERE!

CASE or CASING means "Copy and Share Everything", it also means reproducing an exact piece of artwork but in Global Design Project we can also CASE the colour combo, the sketch, or even use the same stamp set or the theme to make something new so we are always open to see how far your imagination can go when having a source of inspiration.

In the picture below Connie's card - The source of inspiration this week

I CASE the sketch and some of the elements and materials Connie used to create her card so here is my interpretation:

I made a matches box and it has an inside panel to add a personal message. I filled it with chocolates but this kind of box can be used to pack anything and depending on the colours, the stamps or the elements you chose this project will look completely different.

I used Hardwood background stamp and Early Espresso ink to transform the look and feel of Kraft card stock . To stamp the heart image and sentiment " you are my greatest adventure" I used one of stamps of Going Global stamp set ( I used early espresso ink on Kraft card stock too). I hand cut this image but this also coordinates with the Sweetheart Punch from Stampin' Up! as well.

I used a small heart die to cut out from gold glimmer card stock a larger heart and to add interest I embellished with metallic gold baker twine and gold metallic thread. I explain how to make this in my video HERE!

I use the Owl Builder Punch to punch out from gold card stock small hearts that I pasted on the front panel using multi glue and using one of the stamp of bear hugs Stamp set I stamp the sentiment: I love you.

You can also participate in this weekly challenge by clicking here! feel free to use the colour palette, the sketch, the theme or you can also copy the exact Connie's artwork.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you like this project! By the way the Scottish chocolates I used to fill the small box are yummy! x hugs from Scotland.
