Hi! Today I have a fun video where I am creating 5 backgrounds with different techniques. These backgrounds are perfect for adding big sentiments that work as focal points. Use them with big sentiment stamps, with big die cut words or like I did with foiling!
Today I am showcasing the new Glimmer Hot Foil kit of the month by Spellbinders. The Glimmer Hot Foil Kit of the Month Club is an expertly designed plate and foil set for each month, complete with inspiration. Plus, members get store savings, extra deals, gifts, and more.

I love the cards they turned out gorgeous.
Vicky, these backgrounds are beautiful. Thank you for this inspiring tutorial….I know what I’ll be doing today!!!
I love the look of foiling, but can’t afford the machine. Can you show other techniques for using foil?
These cards are absolutely beautiful!! I would have assumed the yupo would not like the heat of the foiling system!! I really like the font of these sentiments. Since I don’t have a foiling system, I really appreciate watching you create some different backgrounds and share ideas on how to keep the rest of the card simple and let the background stand out. I was thinking the other day that since it’s summer soon you will be taking a break from posting videos soon to spend time with family/friends at the beach. I’m already missing you! Mostly, Vicky, thank you for this video. It has been a difficult week for me with all that is happening here in the USA. I love your videos and watching you create and so this video in particular is very much appreciated. Thank you so very much. Enjoy the beautiful weather over there and your ability to get outside again!!
You are simply the BEST!!! You inspire my creativity all the time, every time I watch one of your videos…Please continue (smile)
So nice Vicky, Thank you, Denise
Gorgeous cards Vicky and although I don’t have a foiling machine and not intended to purchase one, I found the tutorial video great. Beautiful backgrounds and I will try some that’s for sure.
Thank you so much for sharing, stay safe and have a wonderful week.
Just lovely!
Beautiful cards. Love the foil dies. I just got a foil machine. Can not wait to try it. Thank you for the tips.
I love the cards…they turned out beautifully!
