Today, I’m Combining Press Plates & Printed Papers using Spellbinders PAScribe Upright Italic Everyday sentiments press plates. I’m using them in both the Glimmer & Betterpress systems with Printed papers in the background and share tips to make them work together. Ad
Visual Supply list below.
The press plate images for all 3 cards are on printed papers from Rosies Studios Jubilee 6″ paper pad.
The first card uses the Upright Italic Happy Birthday plate in the Glimmer system with black foil. The foiled background is ink blended using Evergreen Bough distress ink around the edges before assembling the card and adding Gold mix gems to the background.



The second car uses the Thank You plated to Heat emboss the sentiment onto vellum using the Betterpress system before adding Scor tape to the back and adding to the printed paper. This card is embellished with the Yana’s Tulip die set with a matte gold foil outline before inlayed coloured die cut pieces. The printed paper background for this card was also matted with matte gold treasured cardstock.
The last card uses the Thinking of You plate to emboss the sentiment on the background with white embossing powder. The Cosmos flower is then pressed onto the background using Lisa Horton solid gold ink before assembling the card and adding crystal mix gems on the background. The stems to the flowers are extended using a gold gel pen.
