Creating Bougie Cards with a Limited Color Palette
Hello, crafty friends! I’m Adrienne Boese, better known as Alice Scraps Wonderland online. Today I’m sharing three card ideas using the Bougie Birthday collection designed by Nina Boettcher.

The Amazing Jack of All Trades Collection (and a Nod to Best Ever Craft Tape)
Joan Bardee here. I’m delighted to share the amazing and unique Jack of All Trades Collection. Designed by the talented Jaycee Gaspar, the theme of this collection is about playing cards.

As of the time I am writing this, Spellbinders is offering the entire collection in a discounted bundle. Please look at Jaycee’s samples with this collection. Truly breathtaking!

Felt Stitch & Create Collection with Larissa Heskett
Hello, Crafty Friends. Larissa is here today to share some Inspiration using the Felt Stitch & Create Collection by Nichol Spohr. SWOON! This Collection is amazing and I’m in love with all of the different images to choose from, especially the Candy Cane and the Gingerbread Boy & Girl.

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!
