Incorporating Patterned Paper Into The Fair Winds Collection With Emily Leiphart
Hello, crafty friends! This is Emily Leiphart and I’m thrilled to be back on the Spellbinders blog, featuring the Fair Winds Collection by Dawn Woleslagle. This is such a fun coastal and nautical collection, perfect for summertime cards of all occasions. I wanted to create my cards with a non-traditional color palette and I was inspired by the colors from the Simple Stories Just Beachy 6×8” Paper Pad. Each card features the patterned paper in a different way — the border, a small selection of die cuts, and a centerpiece background. This first card features the Uncharted Waters Stencil, Guiding Light Dies, Set Sail Dies, and the Fair Winds Sentiments.…

Step Up Your Crafting With Embossing Folders
Hello there, Michelle Short here and I am delighted to be back on the Spellbinders blog using the Sealed 3D Botanical collection. This beautiful collection features 3D cut & emboss folders, labels and tags dies, plus wax seal stamps. My projects today focus on embossing folder techniques. TECHNIQUE 1 – INK BLENDING For my first card, I wanted to show simple ink blending with embossing folders. This can be done before embossing or afterwards and they both give slightly different looks. For this card, I added the ink blending first. This meant that I could not take advantage of the cut & emboss feature of these folders, but it still…

The beautiful 3D Emboss & Cut folders, new 3D wax seal stamp designs, and unique nested shape die sets in the collection inspired me to create three cards with tons of color and texture.

Creating Three Cheery Cards With the Same Color Blend
Hi there, this is Annie Williams and I’m thrilled to be back on the blog today to share a couple of brightly-blended cards made with the new Mirrored Arch Collection from Spellbinders. I love this new modern take on the classic oval frame and combined it with the same bright color blend to create three cards for different occasions. Bright Blended Birthday Card I loved all of the options provided by the Mirrored Arch Nested Sprigs Press Plate, so picked this setup first. With four concentric frame plates, you can create an ornate frame with tons of different layers. Here I used just the largest two layers to foil a…
