Cozy Wishes -- Using A Pressplate to Hot Foil

Hi!  Today I am sharing my card that features Spellbinders' July 2025 Betterpress Club Kit.  This press plate, called Festive Press, can also be used with foil, like I did here.  Read on for the details!

First I used opaque white Glimmer Foil with the Festive Press plate and my Glimmer Hot Foil System.  Most press plates are multi-functional and can be used with the Glimmer Hot Foil System!  Note: You cannot used hot foil plates in the Betterpress System.

This is the first time I've tried using a press plate to hot foil and I was very happy with the results!  I trimmed the piece to 4" x 5-¼" and adhered it with glue to an A2 card base.  There are two sentiments included with the July Betterpress of the month.  I did the same and hot foiled them and cut it out with the included die.

The Christmas tree is from the Classic Christmas Tree die set.  I die cut the layers from colored cardstock.  After I assembled the tree with glue, I added Star Dust Stickles to the ornaments and star.

I added foam strips to part of the sentiment and glue to the rest for adhere it to the card.

I happy to add this beautiful card to my Christmas card stash!  I hope you've been inspired and will check out the Club Kits to see what appeals to you!  I hope you have a wonderful week!
