I’m hot foiling anything and everything I can find these days and if I am being honest – you will too after you watch my video. Today we are making stationery style Holiday cards using Hot Foil and Heat embossing. Two simple techniques you will love, because if you are like me – I know you already love heat embossing.

CARD DETAILS
I used both Glimmer Hot Foil plates and my regular Spellbinders etched dies to hot foil this card. I started by foiling “Happy Holidays” and a beautiful snowflake like swirl in Matte Gold foil on Sea Glass cardstock from Simon Says Stamp.
Next, I used snowflakes dies from my stash and added additional foiled effects – I love the combination of gold and light blue on this card.
Next, I used stamps from my stash and gold heat embossed additional sentiments above and below “Happy Holidays”. I adhered my panel onto an A2 white top folding card base and embellished it using Gold Jewels from Pretty Pink Posh.

Love the beautiful colors. Fantastic creation!
Beautiful snowflakes, beautiful card!
Really like your cards .
Gorgeous!! Love this Gold and white combination. I’ve been able to keep myself from purchasing other foiling products but I may cave on this system from Spellbinders. It looks so easy to use and I love that it uses/stretches the products I already have. Such an innovative system!
Beautiful cards, I am intrigued by this Hot foiling system!
I am in love with the look of the glimmer foil plate foiling against the foiled die!!! Fab idea, thanks!!
Your cards look professionally done…beautiful!!! I am so inspired to make my first project.
Stunning and amazingly elegant cards! Gorgeous compositions and the gold and white is so elegant.
I love the snowflakes on the card…I am hoping my stocking is full of the goodies you used (especially that Glimmer machine!)
Love what you did with the foiling! Can’t wait to try the new Glimmer foiling system!
I absolutely love what can be done with this Glimmer Hot Foil System! I never imagined you would be able to use regular dies as well as the glimmer plates, the combination on this card is awesome. Thank you for making the video as always I learn so much from them and for the inspiration for this really cool new system. Santa has already been notified LOL. (mardy14@bellsouth.net)

Fabulous cards! Love the snowflake designs, and so pretty in the foils! Love that sparkle!
Oh my Yana, you have outdone yourself with this gorgeous card! I love that you foiled and heat embossed. This has been a fun hop and I have learned a lot about the Glimmer system. Now I can’t wait for Christmas because this is at the top of my Christmas list!
