Spellbinders Glimmer Greetings Crossed Lines

Hi all, today I'm sharing some cards created with this fantastic new Crossed Lines plate from Spellbinders new Glimmer Greetings release.

This plate is so striking, it really doesn't take much to create gorgeous cards.

For these cards all I did was foil the plate on colored cardstock in gold.  Then using a piece of printer paper as a mask, I added simple ink blending on those foiled portions with a blending brush.

For the sentiments, I used the Merry Glimmer Sentiments set.  The sentiments were actually foiled onto white cardstock, and I used the same ink as for the backgrounds to color them.  They were then die cut with the coordinating dies from the set.

I die cut two additional sentiment pieces from the cardstock used for the panels, layered them with the foiled sentiment, and then adhered them to the card base.

I also wanted to create a non-Christmas card using this plate.

This card was created using the same principle as the first two, but this time I started with a white card base.  In addition, I used a smaller blending brush and instead of inking each quadrant once, I added inking at every third row, starting from the center of the card.

I love pattern this created.

The sentiment was embossed with gold right over top of the inking and foiling.

These card were so easy to make, hope you all like them!

Thanks for swinging by!
