Spellbinders | Glimmer Holly Background & Stencil How-To. Video

Hello, friends! So many of you are loving my Yana’s De-Light-ful Christmas collection and I couldn’t be happier! Today I have an in-depth video tutorial to teach you ways to use the Glimmer Holly Background Glimmer Plate and the coordinating layering stencils. I have tips, tricks, and several cards to share.

VIDEO TUTORIAL

Watch the video tutorial below or on my Youtube channel:

GLIMMER PLATE + STENCIL

I designed these products with versatility in mind. You can use the Glimmer Holly Background Plate alone, or together with the stencils. You can even use the stencils alone, without the plate for a very artistic-looking background (see an example of a background below).

Foil the plate on a larger sheet of paper (not one that is cut strictly to 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″) to have room to align the stencils.

I like to use a variety of blending brush sizes to ink blend, from larger sizes to small detailed brushes to be able to add shadows. I also use 2 shades of ink for each element I ink blend – a lighter and a darker green, for example. The sentiment on this card was created using one of the sub-sentiment glimmer plates from A Merry Little Christmas sentiment set.

GLIMMER PLATE ALONE

You can also use the Glimmer Holly Background Plate alone, without the stencils, and either use it as-is (you can do some tone-on-tone foiling) or color it using your fave coloring mediums. I used a combination of Copic markers and OLO markers to color this image and I also colored the background black for a wow effect.
