Sentiments for All Seasons
Hello crafty friends! It’s Rachel Alvarado from RachelAlvaradoDesigns.com.

These sentiment sets will go perfectly with almost any other Spellbinders product that you own and can be used all year round.

Yana’s Poppies with Emily Midgett
Hi friends! Emily Midgett here with you today from Sixth Street Sundries, and I had the distinct pleasure of playing with goodies from Yana Smakula’s new floral collection called Yana’s Poppies. I have been such a fan of Yana’s work for such a long time, so it is always a privilege to play with products that she has curated. I know that poppies are traditionally red, but I am always up for making things fit my own style, and I know that Himalayan Blue poppies do in fact exist, so I decided to make a trio of projects inspired by those unique flowers! For my first project, I decided to…

Seasonal Faux Stitched Cards with Nichol’s Needlework Collection
Hello! I’m Jen Kotas from whostolemyglitter.com. I’m excited to be sharing three cards featuring Nichol’s Needlework Collection from Nichol Spohr. This collection includes dies to make cards throughout the year. You could even use them without the needlework dies. Though I didn’t do it, I would recommend stamping the sentiment before die-cutting. It will produce more solid lines.i put tiny pieces of foam tape behind the gold screw fitting. You could adhere everything flat instead to avoid this. Die cut the pieces from the Gathering Stitches Etched Dies, Needleworker Tool Kit Etched Dies and Faux Embroidered Stockings Etched Dies from a variety of cardstock colors. You will also need to…
