Video: The Gilded Age Collection Inspiration | Foiling on Acetate with Tina Smith

Hello and Happy Wednesday Crafty Friends! Tina here from Cards and Coffee Time, I am super excited to be a guest designer on the Spellbinders Blog today! I created a few projects with the New Gilded Age Glimmer Collection by Becca Feeken. The Glimmer Hot Foil System can be used with so many different backgrounds, not just paper. I used acetate to foil with the beautiful Vintage Frame Glimmer Plate the outcome was just stunning! I encourage you to give this a try, you will love it!!

I used two different foils for each of my projects. A Teal Glimmer Foil and also a New Foil to the Spellbinders Shop called Emerald Facets. I love the way the light picks up all the different facets of color. For my sentiments I used the same Glimmer Foils with the lovely Elegant Occasion Sentiments Glimmer Plates.
