Spellbinders January 2024 Clubs

Today I’m sharing a cards made with the Spellbinders January 2024 Glimmer Hot Foil and Stitching clubs.

Club Details

The Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil club is a monthly subscription and a great way to build your collection of glimmer plates and foils.

You will need the Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil machine to use with this subscription, plus a compatible die cutting machine. I used my Spellbinders Platinum 6 machine. A list of compatible machines is available on the Spellbinders website.

The Stitching Die of the Month is a great way to add detail and texture to projects. The dies work well with or without stitching, making them a really versatile choice.

For those that want to join multiple clubs and save, Spellbinders offers Value Clubs.

Stitching Die Club

This month, you get the Bee Stitched set with 13 cutting dies.

---

I die cut all the pieces for the bee. I chose pearl sparkle black card, pearl blue card and a plain yellow card.

For the stitching on the wings, I used metallic white thread, then chose metallic gold for the wings. Metallic thread can be a bit tricky to work with, but the end results are so pretty.

---

I used liquid glue and double side tape to adhere the bee together, then put it aside whilst I worked on the background.

I found some hexagonal patterned paper for the background, which I adhered to an A2 card base. I then added a contrasting strip across the centre of the card.

---

The sentiment is from a Hello Bluebird stamp set. I stamped this with black ink at the top centre of the card, then adhered the bee underneath to finish.

There are floral dies included in the set, but I decided not to use those this time.

Glimmer Hot Foil Club

This month, you get the Card Front Floral set, with 3 hot foil plates.

---

The large floral hot foil plate fills an A2 card size well, but I decided to work with a mini slimline card size instead to get a different look.

I chose a piece of stripy pink patterned paper and foiled the large floral plate with champagne foil. I then trimmed the panel down and adhered to a mini slimline card base (3.5 x 6”). You could add colour to the floral image, but I decided to keep it as just an outline.

---

There are two sentiment foil plates in the set. I foiled the ‘for you’ sentiment on a piece of the same patterned paper, then trimmed it down to a banner shape.

I added some layers behind the sentiment strip for dimension, offsetting a strip of grey patterned paper for contrast.

At this point, I decided I’d like to add more of the grey striped patterned paper to my card. I trimmed a piece down and adhered it at the bottom of the panel to finish.
