Vintage Christmas Inspirations
Hello Spellbinders friends! It’s Angela Tombari here and today I would love to show you what I created with the new release Christmas Flea Market Finds, made by Spellbinders in cooperation with Cathe Holden. Christmas Treat Bags Since it’s a Christmas-themed collection, I thought its papers were perfect for making some treat bags. I used papers from both paper pads, Christmas Velvet, and Home For The Holidays. I chose papers with delicate tone on tone design, one blue with small tiny flowers, one red with delicate embroidery, and the last, my preferred, with a fluffy boutis. Boutis is an old French type of embroidery. The treat bags are cut with…

A Trio of Foiled Holiday Tags with Marie Nicole
Hello, Spellbinders friends! Marie here again from Marie Nicole Designs. Please don’t judge me for sharing Christmas projects already, but the Glimmer Greetings collection from Spellbinders is all things Christmas! Besides, Christmas crafting is all year long- am I right? To begin creating my tags, I used some arch dies from Spellbinders to cut a few layers of red and white paper. When creating a set of cards or tags, I like to pick a few colors and stick with that palette. When all my projects are created, they look like a matching set. For this first tag, I used the Plaid Tidings Glimmer Plate to create a red foiled…

Gift Package Ideas using Susan’s Garden Favorites
Hello! My name is Jen Kotas and I’m so happy to be on the Spellbinders blog today. I’ve created three projects using the new Susan’s Garden Favorites. What a wonderful new collection of flowers from Susan Tierney-Cockburn!

I die cut the Trillium Etched Dies and the Dogwood Etched Dies for this box. I then assembled the flowers on…
