Glimmer of the Month + Add on Stencil for July 24

 Today I will share two cards featuring the glimmer of the month plus the add on stencil from Spellbinders.  The second card will feature a new technique that I discovered recently.  I hope you enjoy this post and the cards I created!

This first card used both the glimmer club and the added  stencil.  To create this card, I started with a mad  of red cardstock to which I added a background of printed paper (gold writing on green paper) Then I hot foiled the glimmer plate using aura color foil.  It was then stenciled using green and red inks using a blending brush.  It was then added to the front of the card.  The sentiment was also foiled using Aura foil and the glimmer of the month for July 24.  It was added to the bottom section of the card.  As a finishing touch, I added a red bow, some gold pears, and some sequined gold string as embellishments.

For this second card, I used the same piece of foil that I used for the first card, except I used the negative. I glued it to a piece of white cardstock with the essential arches die and attached it to a larger red and an even larger green arch.  They were then added to a mat of dark green and some green plaid paper from my stash for the background.  I used the sentiment from the Snow gardens Sentiment dies and popped it up using foam squares.  To add some more color and finish off the card I used red enamel drops for the berries on the holly sprig.

I hope you like both of these cards and will give the new technique a try!  I think you will enjoy it as much as I do.  To check our all the clubs Spellbinders offers, please click here.  To learn all the faqs and conditions, please click here.
