Classic Pooh Picture Frame Cards
Hello Crafty Friends, Heejung Hunsberger here! I’m thrilled to be returning as a guest designer for Spellbinders this month again! I’m excited to share three cards featuring the Say Cheese Classic Pooh Collection. Winnie the Pooh was one of my son’s favorite characters during his baby years.

I have so many adorable photo memories with Pooh and my son, so I included all the cute images in the photo frames on the cards. If you’d like to get to know me better, visit my blog or follow me on Instagram. Additionally, I have a YouTube channel where…

Vintage Postal Christmas Cards
Hi everyone! So happy to welcome you to a new post here on the Spellbinders blog. I’m Pam Sparks, cardmaker, blogger and instagram creator. Today I’m sharing three cards I made with the new Simon Hurley Christmas Collection. My first card uses images from the Sketched Santas and Sketched Christmas stamp and die sets. I had fun stamping and coloring on kraft color cardstock with color pencils. I kept it pretty simple…inking, some die cutting and layering for A2 size cards. My second card I had the idea to go ‘postal’ and make a faux postcard design using the Sketched Snowmen stamp and die sets. I stamped and heat-embossed two…

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…

This collection is so enjoyable because it encompasses our favorite summer pastimes that will take you down memory lane.
