Introducing the Amazing Paper Grace Delicate Impressions Collection


Delicate Impressions Details

We’re excited to introduce another Glimmer Hot Foil collection! The Delicate Impressions Collection has five sets of Glimmer Hot Foil Plates. The fifth set, Heart Melt Sentiments, has four unique phrases with matching dies. The other four sets are designed to create borders and accents that can be used on cards from A2 to 5 x 7-inches. Each elegant motif can be layered with itself or mix with others in the same collection or beyond.


Glimmer Hot Foil Plates are metal plates used in the Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil System to transfer foil to paper through a combination of heat and pressure.  Roll the Glimmer machine base through your die cut machine to deliver its beautiful design. Refer to Compatibility Charts on Spellbinders' website, to see if your machine is a match.

Pop Up 3D Vignette Poinsettia Sleigh - Amazing Paper Grace


Are you ready to sleigh it?  Today I'm sharing the Amazing Paper Grace Die of the Month for November 2020 - Pop Up 3D Vignette Poinsettia Sleigh.  This one is a little bit different because it folds down flat for mailing as do all the dies in the 3D Vignette lines.


Becca Feeken of Amazing Paper Grace sent me these lovely dies to create with.


Poinsettia Sleigh Details

 

This die can be used as flat detail on a 2D surface but transforms into a 3D show piece so easily that we're happy you will have both options.  Becca traditionally creates a high end die that doubles as a decoration piece in November of each year.  Let's just call it icing on the cake for the holidays.  It's really a satisfying venture to grab a cup of coffee and sit down to put it together as it is to set it out on the table. 

Today we want to inspire you to think of different combinations using the Poinsettia Sleigh.  Here's what we had in mind:

  1. Table Center Piece
  2. Table Setting Favor
  3. Filled with Candy and Goodies
  4. Part of a Wonderland Menagerie
  5. Flat 2D on the front of a card

    In the comments let us know how you think it should be used. 



My Project Today using the Pop Up 3D Vignette Poinsettia Sleigh

I designed card with Sleigh and Poinsettia, with 3D Sleigh full with Poinsettias. 




Supplies:

Paper: Navy Blue Cardstock, Golden Mirror Card, Any Blue Pattern Paper

Accessories:  Amazing Paper Grace November 2020 Die of the Month - Pop Up 3D Vignette Poinsettia Sleigh SKU DOMAPG-NOV20


Venise Lace SKU S5-309
