    Ideas for Using Pre-Printed Paper in Cardmaking

    August 3, 2024 / No Comments

    Hello crafters! Karen Brown here and I am delighted to be back on the Spellbinders Blog with some ideas for streamlining your creative cardmaking process.

    Creating With the Bayfair Card Maker’s Kit and Add-ons With Emily Leiphart

    June 23, 2024 / No Comments

    Hello, crafty friends! This is Emily Leiphart and I’m thrilled to be back on the Spellbinders blog, featuring Bayfair by Rosie’s Studio Card Maker’s Kit and add-ons.

I absolutely love the color palette and various elements included in the card kit, as well as the add-ons, which all provide so much elegance and texture to the cards. This first card features patterned paper, ephemera, button embellishments, and puffy stickers from the Bayfair Card Maker’s Kit. All of these elements are sold separately, too.

    June 16, 2024 / No Comments

    Hi there, this is Annie Williams and I’m excited to be back on the blog today to share a couple of pretty floral cards made with the Bayfair Card Maker’s Kit.  The beautiful floral dies, bright patterns, and fun embellishments in the collection inspired me to create three colorful cards perfect for sending a summer hello. Colorful Smile Card I loved the bold patterns in the Bayfair 6×6 Paper Pad and thought they would be beautifully paired with some colorful florals and gold accents for this pretty card to make a friend smile. Trim a piece of the green patterned paper from the Bayfair 6×6 Paper Pad to 4” x…
