When I was contacted by Trish Latimer the editor of Craft Stamper Magazine to be part of the February 2017 edition,  I asked her what should be my approach or what would be ideal to make. She said:“We have a mixed media focus, with lots of stamping involved. We don’t do ‘cute’ styles really”, so I tried ... Read More about Shabby Chic Cards style for Craft Stamper Magazine

Hi from Scotland, this is Bibi Cameron here and I’m happy to be able to share five easy and simple ideas using glimmer plates from the new Christmas Foiled Basics collection designed by Yana Smakula for Spellbinders. This is a collection of 6 glimmer plates: Winter Village Christmas Foliage Background Yana’s Christmas Sentiments Gift Border Christmas Foliage Circle Border Christmas Organic Foliage To use any of these glimmers sets you will need the Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil System and hot foil. For all the projects below I used foiled sentiments made using “Yana’s Christmas Sentiments“, this set included 22 plates and 5 coordinating dies. Easy Christmas Foiled Cards, Tags and Mini Box I started by making very simple and basic cards using “Glimmer Winter Village“. I totally love these plates, they are so easy to use and you can use them on different projects. You can combine these beautiful foiled images with any of the “Yana’s Christmas Sentiments” to make elegant foiled Christmas cards. You can also use any of the plates in this collection to create hot foiled tags. Below you will see tags made with “Glimmer Winter Village” and “Glimmer Gift Border“. I couldn’t resist and I also applied hot foil to this small gift box. Bonus Projects I also wanted to share a couple of ideas featuring  “Christmas Foliage Background” and “Christmas Organic Foliage“. Christmas Organic Foliage For this card, I simply foiled white and dark green cardstock and die cut the foiled pieces using coordinating dies included with the glimmer plates. Then, I just made a super simple arrangement over patterned paper and I added mirror cardstock accents and fashion gold embellishments. I glued this over a white panel and then I glue the topper on a red card base. Christmas Foliage Background Christmas Foliage Background will allow you to easily foil a whole panel of a card, a box, or a tag. I made 2 super simple cards to share extra ideas with you. Santa Claus Card I simply foiled white smooth cardstock using Magenta Hot Foil and I used a heart die to cut the aperture in the center. To make the Santa,  I used Santa’s Helpers a large die that will allow you to create different characters for your Christmas Cards. Watch how to assemble the Santa here. The sentiment was made using a glimmer plate and coordinating die from Yana’s Christmas Sentiments. Shaker Card I also wanted to foil coloured cardstock using Christmas Foliage Background and also add a shaker as a focal point. For this card, I used polish brass hot foil on a dark green piece of cardstock. I die cut a circle on the center of the panel and I added a shaker. Behind the shaker, I added a piece of cardstock that I previously foiled using “Glimmer Winter Village” so that you can see the little houses in the background. I added a couple of leaves made using “Christmas Organic Foliage“. Spellbinders Supplies: That’s all for today. I hope you like these ideas. Happy Crafting Bibi

Hi from Scotland, this is Bibi Cameron and today I’m sharing 3 projects featuring the newly released Make a Scene Collection by Becca Feeken. This is a super versatile collection that will allow you to create 5 x 7 inches collapsible 3D cards, that fold flat for mailing. The collection includes: Card Base Die Set (Designed to create a 5”x7” inches theater card base). 6 Die Sets to create inserts for different occasions. 4 Decorative Die Sets (intricate panels, frames, tags, banners and a flower) Make a Scene stamp set. Theater Card To make this card you will need to create the card base first. This is easy as Make a Scene Card Base die set does all the work. However, it will required some prepping and up to 30 minutes to assemble the whole project. To complete the card you will also need the insert panels and to make those you will require additional die sets in this collection. For this card, I used the following die sets: • Make a Scene Card Base. • Rolling Alone die set (Bike and embellishments), Cozy Home die set (fences). • Celebration Scene (Sentiment) die set. I also used 240 grams white and grey smooth cardstock. The pink cardstock is 240 grams textured cardstock. The card base has 3 slots, you can cut 2 or 1 if you want to. To do this, you just need to remove dies to create the slots while die-cutting. Making The Inserts If you want to create a 3 tier card you will need 3 inserts. To make them you need to cut 3 pieces of paper as follows: 1 tier ( front) . 1-3/4″ x 4-3/4″ inches. 2 tier ( middle) . 2- 3/4″ x 4-3/4″ inches 3 tier ( Back) . 3- 1/4″ x 4-3/4″ inches So all these pieces are the same width but the pieces at the back need to be taller than the ones in front.  Creating the inserts will allow you to experiment a little bit. By any means, the inserts should be taller than the measurements given above. If so the card won’t close.  Avoid bulkiness so that the card will close better. I would recommend using 250 grams cardstock for the mechanism, for anything else (frames and inserts) 300 grams would be great. I also trimmed down 1/8″ of an inch from the width of the die-cut piece that connects the 2 panels for the mechanism to minimize the gap at the front when the card is closed. Make a Scene For Tags Here is a super easy idea to make tags using any of the insert dies in this collection. For this tag, I used Rolling Alone die set bit you can use any other. You can add banners, stamped sentiments or hot foiled sentiments to any project made with any die set in this collection. Mini House Treat Box-Tag As the insert die will partially cut the paper you can use the die-cut to create or decorate boxes by simply scoring and folding flaps at the bottom of the die-cuts. These can be used also a tag or a jewellery box. The size of the boxes is 1-1/2” x 3” inches ( 1/2” deep). They are really tiny and cute. This kind of project can be as wide as the front of the die-cut shape tho. Spellbinders Supplies: That’s is all for today. I hope you enjoy these projects. Hugs, Bibi
