Windmills and Tulips Press + Foil Plate

Another beautiful Press & Foil Plate from the Yana's Tulips Collection. You can see the entire collection HERE.

I used the plate and black hot foiled the image. I could have used black ink and the BetterPress but then I'd have to clean the plate, which isn't my favorite thing to do. With the Glimmer hot foiling machine I just have to heat it up, cut the foil to the size I want and run it through the diecutting machine.

I did use the stencil for this plate. I like to use them to color in large areas like the sky or field. I then used makers to color in the small images, like the tulips and leaves, etc.

If you want the stencil you have to buy the bundle, the stencil doesn't come separately.

Using Up Scraps with Spellbinders Lavender Fields Hexagon Dieset

Today I'm using the Spellbinders Lavender Fields Hexagon Dies. The dies coordinate with the Simple Stories Vintage Lavender Fields Collection. There's gorgeous papers and ephemera in this collection.You can see the entire Lavender Fields Collection by clicking HERE.

I don't have the paper, I only have the dieset. This dieset is such a good value at under $20. It includes 3 hexagons and 3 coordinating faux stitch dies. I used the smallest die on my A2 sized card.

I have so many paper scraps in my stash, although who doesn't? I cut the hexagons from some of the scraps and adhered them to a card to look like a quilt. You can see how I made that card on my YouTube channel.

Supplies are listed below with direct links to the stores that carry them (where they were in stock at the time of this writing). If you use my link to make a purchase, I receive a small commission at no additional cost to you. This really helps me continue providing information. Thank you.
