Hello my crafty friends! Today I received Happy mail my new spellbinder glimmer hot foil system. My hubby ask me what would I like for Mother’s Day, so I told him to let me do some research and I’ll get back to him. I heard a lot about this glimmer system. But I wasn’t sure how it work. So I watched videos on it and read a lot of reviews. So this is my first time working with the machine. And I’m very please with it. I can’t wait to do different techniques with it now. I wanted to share my first two sample I did tonight with you guys.
Spellbinder glimmer hot system and I used Jane Davenport glimmer plate call Charisma
I follow the directions in the book and watch more videos on this product. It seem very simple and just what I like. I love the way it infused into the paper and gave it a elegant look. Second one I used is Spellbinder glimmer plate called flower pattern and I also used the silver foil that came with the products.
I did use removable tap to hold the plate in place with the 110 wt card stock. And it came out so pretty. Next I’m going to try it on watercolor paper and paint it with watercolors.
I’m so happy to have a new toy to add to my crafting world. Thank you Spellbinder for making awesome products.

Hello my crafty friends! Today I wanted to see how Tim Holtz distress oxides and distress inks would work on deco foil toner cards. I’m so happy the way my cards came out. I aways like to combine different products together to see how they come out. So here’s my four cards I made today.
My Four deco foil cards…..
I used deco foils Summer Rainbow, Amber watercolor and amethyst watercolor. With deco foils unity toner card fronts Heart tree, flowers & lines and butterfly fly away. And used my Heidi Swapp mini minc machine.
Flowers & Lines I used Tim Holtz distress oxides kitsch flamingo, mustard seed, abandoned coral, wilted violet, twisted citron and mowed lawn. Then in the middle of flowers used TH distress inks picked raspberry, mustard seed, abandoned coral, peeled paint and shabby shutters. I also cut a flower and heart tress out, put them threw my minc machine again. Then watercolor again and add then to my two cards to give dimensions. Heart Tree I used TH distress oxides tea dye, rusty hinge and rustic wilderness. On butterfly used TH distress inks mermaid lagoon and wilted violet. The big butterfly on my card is Heidi Swapp 3D butterfly. On this card I took the negative deco foil I used call summer rainbow on the first card and cut out a black toner card and ran it threw my machine. Which gave me another card. I also took Heidi Swapp white reactive foil and put this card threw my machine again and it gave me this pretty white look around the flowers. Like you” is a simon says stamp die. The “thanks” here is also a simon says stamp die. Cut out on 110 wt. card stock. Simon Says Stamp thankful die.Simon Says stamp! “ Miss you” die

Hello my crafty friends! I’m really a fan of all Tim Holtz products. I love his distress ink, oxides and sprays. I think his thinlits are amazing. Today I wanted to share with you how I create this background for my card.
“Dive deep for the treasure that you seek”
I started by picking two of Tim Holtz distress oxide colors salty ocean, peacock feathers and blended both colors on two watercolor paper. Plus splattered water on top of my card stock and tap dry with a paper towel. Then took my TH Thinlits called Bubbles #665211, placed it on one of my papers and run it threw my vagabond 2 machine.
Took my cut out and placed it on top of my other watercolor card stock and took a few of the bigger circles and place on it too. Once I like the way my background looked. I started to add Gina K designs glitz glitter gel to my background covering all it. I set it aside to dry. Took my Stamplistic rubber stamp called Mermaiden /Layering dies, stamped it on heavy card stock and die cut it out. I highlighted the mermaid with glue and run it threw my minc machine with Gina K. Foil paper.
I color the mermaid tail with zig pens turquoise green and cornflower blue. Then I used rangers sticklers called glitter glue on the tail. Which gave it a dimension and glitter look. Print my little saying on my p-touch embellish. And this is my finished handmade card. I love the way it came out. I hope you guys try this technique too. Have a wonderful day.
