Sparkling Christmas Inspiration – Foiled Cardmaking Ideas with Jenny
Hi there fellow crafters, it’s Jenny from JCCards here! I’m excited to be guesting here on the Spellbinders blog, sharing two card projects I created using the gorgeous new Sparkling Christmas collection. Both of my projects today use Glimmer plates from the collection and I was inspired by some of the gorgeous colors of glimmer foils available that aren’t what you think of as traditional Christmas colors. For those of you who haven’t started a Glimmer collection, believe me the effect is stunning, and I’m addicted. If you haven’t used the Glimmer Hot Foil System before (or even if you have), I highly recommend you check out the Spellbinders YouTube…

Hello crafty friends! This is Mayline and I am honored and excited to be returning with another guest post on the Spellbinders blog! Today I have a few projects to share with you using the Destinations Japan Collection by Lene Lok. When I saw the collection I immediately fall in love because all the collection’s themes are Japanese traditional pattern, cloths, buildings and so on. Also, another reason is my husband is from Japan. Thus, this collection is closely related to me. That is why I was so excited to play with this Collection. Here is my first card using Sakura Blossoms Dies and Waves Dies. This card can be…

Hi there, this is Annie Williams and I’m excited to be back on the blog today to share a couple of projects using the new Hexi-Gems Collection from Spellbinders. I loved playing with different ways to use this fun new shape in my cardmaking and was inspired to create a couple of pretty cards in three different styles.
