Adding Dimension to your Fall Projects
Hi Spellbinders fans. Alanna Moses from EmbellishCraftLove.com and I am very excited to be guesting on the Spellbinders blog today. Today, I am working with the Falling Leaves collection. This collection has a press plate with coordinating stencil, a 3D embossing folder, and three wax seals. All of these products are so beautiful and pair perfectly together. For my first card, I started by taking the Autumn Rain BetterPress and Stencil Bundle and used my BetterPress machine to ink up the press plate. I used the Opal Blush Shimmer Interference Ink Pad from Lisa Horton Crafts. I then used the coordinating stencils to color the umbrellas and leaves. I trimmed…

Happy Haunting
Hello! Jen Kotas is here today with three cards featuring the Happy Haunting Collection. I love making cute spooky cards and they don’t have to be just for Halloween. To create the dots with wax beads simply drop a small amount onto the silicone mat. It’s a great way to use up any extra melted wax on the spoon! Blend purple ink on a piece of Porcelain BetterPress A2 Card then impress with Spider Web Background Press Plate with the same ink. Adhere to an A2 card base. Die cut the image from Woof-or-Treat Etched Dies and assemble with liquid glue. Adhere to the card with foam tape. Create sentiment…

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…
