    Hello everyone! Galina Filippenko is here (@galachko on Instagram), and I’m so happy to be guesting on Spellbinders blog. I have a few cards to share with you that I created using the absolutely stunning Regal Reflections Collection. I’ve had so much fun playing with these products. If you love texture backgrounds, layering elements, and elegant details (with a little whimsy thrown in), you’re going to love these cards! Texture, Florals and Cute Pup For my first card, I decided to mix three new products: the Regal Blooms Die Set, the Regal Pair Die Set, and the Regal Lattice Embossing Folder.

I believe that the Gorgeous You Collection and Mini Wax Seals Collection will be the perfect choice for Mother’s Day or birthday cards for women who enjoy makeup.

    Using a Single Color Palette to Create Three Cards!

    October 2, 2024 / No Comments

    Hi crafty friends!  It’s Cassie Trask back with another blog post where I’m going to share a few cards using the new Falling Leaves Collection.  It may be in the 90s here in South Georgia, but I am very ready for Fall, and a Fall color palette is where it’s at! A Rainy Fall Background Fall often brings about some rain, which is why I like this Autumn Rain BetterPress Plate.  It’s such a pretty plate that gives you the opportunity to use lots of color especially when you use the Layered Autumn Rain Stencil. For all of my cards I brought in the Thanks Enclosed Sentiments dies, because they…

    Adding Dimension to your Fall Projects

    October 2, 2024 / 1 Comment

    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…
