Colorful Tunnel Scapes Projects
Hello crafty friends! It’s Rachel Alvarado from RachelAlvaradoDesigns.com. I am thrilled to be able to share with you a few projects that I made using products from the new Tunnel Scapes Collection by Vicky Papaioannou. This collection is absolutely gorgeous and is perfect for all year round. My first project is a 3D shadow box card that features both the Underwater Tunnel Etched Dies and the Underwater Marine Life Etched Dies. All my images were die cut and the only stamping that I did was the sentiment on the top left corner of my box card. When folded, my card measures at 5 ¾” x 5 ½” and can fit…

Hello there crafters! Lisa Tilson is here with you today on the Spellbinders blog and as always, I am excited to be here! Today we are going to be taking a look at the super fun Tunnel Scapes Collection designed by Vicky Papaioannou. I have absolutely loved working with this fun, playful collection.

The collection consists of three sets of etched dies which allow you to create these flowing layered tunnels. You then have a plethora of different options to add to the tunnels,…

Die Cutting Dioramas With Tunnel Scapes
Hello there, Michelle Short here and I am delighted to be back on the Spellbinders blog using the Tunnel Scapes collection. This is such a fun collection that focuses on creating scenes with dimension, kind of like mini dioramas but more on the 2D side, rather than the 3D side. These cards can get pretty dimensional if adding foam tape in between all the tunnel layers, but they would still look great without the foam tape, or with less layers if you didn’t want them to be so bulky. I used thin foam tape for mine so that I still got the dimension but with slightly less bulk. UNDERWATER TURTLE…

Using Modeling Paste with ColorSpark Watercolor Powders and Corner Rounder Punch
Hello crafty friends! It’s Rachel Alvarado from RachelAlvaradoDesigns.com. I have a few cards to share with you showcasing how to mix modeling paste with watercolor powders. I made three cards using The Crafter’s Workshop Light & Fluffy Modeling Paste along with a variety of TCW ColorSparx Watercolor Powders and the 1-2 Punch: Corner Rounder + Notch. The technique of mixing modeling paste and watercolor powders is super easy to do and can allow you to get some vibrant colored backgrounds and/or designs on your cards. I love how versatile these watercolor powders are because you can also mix them with water to create liquid watercolors to use on your cards…

Beautiful Butterflies As Accents and Focal Points on Cards
Hi there, this is Annie Williams and I’m thrilled to be back on the blog today to share a couple of simple and pretty cards incorporating the beautiful butterfly stickers in the new Timeless Collection from Spellbinders. These shimmery, three-dimensional stickers are perfect for adding easy and dynamic accents or focal points to an otherwise ordinary card project. Fluttering Thinking of You Card If you want to give your butterfly stickers the look of movement, it’s easiest to create a fluttering path of these beauties on a larger card such as a 5” x 7” or slimline card. Here I added three brightly colored butterflies from the Summer Day Sticker…
