Susanbcards: Glimmer Hot Foil on Acetate with Spellbinders Wildflowers Collection

The Spellbinders Wildflowers Collection by Lisa Horton is another new favorite for me. You can see the entire collection HERE.

I love the Script Text BetterPress Plate, and as usual, rather than inking it up, I decided to Glimmer Hot Foil it. I recently saw some acetate sheets with gold foil printed on them and thought it would make a nice background.

I used some heat resistant acetate, which works great with the Glimmer machine, no melting. I have also used this acetate to heat emboss, and that also worked out well. The only thing I didn't have success with is to diecut it. It's very thick and only left an impression, not a cut. More experiments may be necessary.

Here is my YouTube video tutorial for this card:

I popped up the acetate panel with some fun foam, I buy the sheets at Michaels for under $2. You can find it in the kids craft section.

I put the oval fun foam under the acetate, and on the top of the acetate, I cut the same oval with vellum. I like the softer look it gives for the flower to sit on.

The Gladiolus is cut from yellow cardstock that I edged with Distress Oxide ink in Ripe Persimmon. It can easily be just cut from solid cardstock in any color, but I like the 2 tone colors.

I love the pretty gold bow. That was cut from metallic cardstock and the bow die from the Scallop and Stitched Edge Ovals. It's a great dieset.

That's it for today. I hope you watch my video. Listed below are the supplies I used with direct links. If you use my link to make a purchase, it lets these stores know you find my content useful. This allows me to continue providing content, Thank you so much:
