Glimmer of the month - October

 

 Hello!

 Welcome to my little crafting place!

This month the Spellbinders club kits will help you on the way with your Christmas crafting! Possibly my favourite of the October club kits I have is the Glimmer of the Month. The main plate features a twirling string of fairy lights which is great to use as a background or the main focus.  You also get a lovely sentiment and corresponding die to cut it out if you want to.

My first card shows off the plate as the main element of my design, and I've already made a few cards on this same theme as it works so well!

 

I chose some turquoise card and used the Aura gold foil that comes with this club set. Once foiled I just used scissors to cut around the lower edge of the design. I glued a few strips of card onto the back to get just a small amount of dimension then added it to my card blank.

Along the crease I added some gold thread, a bow and a turquoise gem. The lovely sentiment is also in the club kit as is the die for cutting it - in this instance I made 2 extra die cuts and glued them together. To finish a few small red gems were added

So, a simple design but one that I think works really well and looks good in many colours - I'll share some more another time!
