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…

Stitched Alphabet Inspiration with Karen Yagel
Hello crafty friends! My name is Karen Yagel from Yes Please Papercrafts. I’m excited to be back on the Spellbinders blog for the new Spellbinders Stitched Alphabet collection. For my project today, I created a super cute 12×12 scrapbook layout featuring pictures of my dog Bella. The Stitched Alphabet dies are the perfect size to create titles for scrapbooking.

Scrapbook Layout with Zsoka Marko – Using Electronic and Manual Machines Together
Hi there crafty friends, Zsoka here with you today and I have a scrapbook layout to share with you using both traditional metal dies as well as digital cut files. Usually, if I do both of these die cutting techniques on my layout, I go with a large cut file to create a design element for my background and add smaller die cuts, such as leaves, hearts, flowers etc, as accents. On my page today, however, I actually created my background with a metal die set and used a cut file for my (not too large) title. I love the Color Block Slices die set, I’ve created several cards with it…

I wanted to give this album as a gift and I wanted the recipient to be able to customize it somewhat after they receive it so I didn’t want to go overboard on…
