Hello friends! Today I'm sharing a couple of elegant foiled floral birthday cards featuring Spellbinders Layered Glimmer Collection glimmer plates and dies. I'm pairing the Especially For You Glimmer Plate & Die Set and Glimmered Botanical Glimmer Plate & Die Set with the Nestabilities Essential Ovals Etched Dies, Nestabilities Essential Rectangles Etched Dies, June 2020 Small DOM Handing You A Smile dies, Thank You & Happy Birthday glimmer plates, and More Sentiments Glimmer plates and die. That's a lot of Spellbinders love, y'all!
While I created birthday cards with these supplies, these designs could just as easily be used for a thank you card, anniversary card, sympathy card, etc. I love a design that can be used for multiple occasions!

THE BACKGROUNDS
A Nestabilities Essential Ovals Etched Die was die cut from a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" panel of FSJ Catalina Splash Cardstock.
The MFT Stamps HB Birthday Background Cling was stamped on each background with pigment white yeti ink.
The background was then die cut with a Nestabilities Essential Rectangles Etched Die. FSJ Cool Pool Cardstock was also die cut with this die to layer behind the die cut and stamped panel.
FOR YOU BIRTHDAY CARD
The Especially For You Glimmer Plate & Die Set "For You" sentiment was foiled in the center of the oval with Moondust Foil.
Flowers from the Especially For You Glimmer Plate & Die Set were foiled on FSJ Cool Pool Cardstock with Cobalt Blue Foil. The leaves were foiled on Lemongrass Cardstock with Green Foil. Additional flowers, layering pieces, and leaves were die cut from smooth white cardstock, FSJ Pineapple Smoothie Cardstock, FSJ Huckleberry Fusion Cardstock, and FSJ Limeade Fusion Cardstock.
The flowers and leaves were layered and adhered to the large foiled sentiment as shown. The flower centers were finished with Honey Bee Stamps Log Cabin Gems.
An additional sentiment from the Especially For You Glimmer Plate & Die Set was foiled on FSJ Cool Pool Cardstock with Cobalt Blue Foil and die cut with the strip die from the More Sentiments Glimmer plates and die. The phrase was adhered to the card with foam adhesive.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY CARD
The "Happy Birthday" Thank You & Happy Birthday glimmer plates sentiment was foiled on the card base inside the oval with Moondust Foil.
Flower and leaves from the Glimmered Botanical Glimmer Plate & Die Set were foiled on FSJ Cool Pool Cardstock with Moondust Foil, Lemongrass Cardstock with Green Foil, and smooth white cardstock with Cobalt Blue Foil. Additional layering pieces were die cut from FSJ Huckleberry Fusion Cardstock and smooth white cardstock. Additional images (leaves and stems) were die cut from FSJ Limeade Fusion Cardstock.
