Crafting Friendship for Halloween, Christmas, and More
Hello! It’s Jean from Right As Rain. Discover the creative potential of the Spellbinders Beads of Friendship Collection! Inspired by Taylor Swift’s iconic friendship bracelets, this collection features die sets, BetterPress sets, and a stamp set to craft paper versions of these beloved accessories. To show the collection’s versatility, I’ve created a Halloween card, a Christmas card, and a card celebrating the spirit of friendship. The letters on the bracelets add a graphic touch, making it easy to personalize each card with sentiments that are both striking and meaningful. Let’s take a look! Craft a Halloween card featuring a hand holding a cat and ghost, with bracelets that spell “Hocus…

Crafty Lessons Learned with the Happy Hour Collection
Hello crafters! Joan Bardee here. The fantastic Happy Hour Collection consists of 2 cocktail glasses and other unique items to use with or without the glasses. It’s clever and my favorite of everything Spellbinders has released so far this year. Today I’m sharing a brayered background, an explosion of color blocking, and a cheeky Halloween card. None of these contain new ideas, but I learned a few things along the way that I will share with you. I hope you enjoy the cards as much as I enjoyed making them.

A Christmas Dance
Hello there, Michelle Short here and I am delighted to be back on the Spellbinders blog today sharing three projects using the Dancin’ Christmas Friends Collection. This fabulous collection features characters that are made so that their legs move, or dance, which is super fun! A GIFT FOR YOU For my first card, I am using the Dancin’ Gnome Etched Dies. This die creates a gnome that is almost 6” tall, so I opted for a mini slimline card, to get the full effect of his dancing legs! To make this card: Die cut Dancin’ Gnome Etched Dies from Snowdrift, Bearly Peach, Teal Topaz, Waterfall, Poppy Field, and Silver Assortment…

Christmas Cardmaking using Contemporary Colours
Hello there crafters! Lisa Tilson here with you today on the Spellbinders blog. I’m excited to be here to show you some ideas using the Home For The Holidays Collection. For my three cards today, I thought it would be fun to use modern, contemporary colors for a super pretty Christmas vibe. I love traditional colors at Christmas, but it’s always good to shake it up a little and I usually end up with a fairly even mix of styles. The Home For The Holidays Collection is a big one and it is packed with super fun dies, gorgeous press plates, beautiful sentiments, and an embossing folder that actually could…
