Delightful Daisies
Hello crafters! It’s Lisa Tilson here with you again on the Spellbinders blog. I’m thrilled to be here to share some ways to use Yana’s Daisies Collection with you. This is a lovely collection by Yana Smakula that includes a couple of press plates with coordinating stencils, a set of etched dies, a 3D embossing folder and a set of BetterPress sentiments.

Oh, Hello Gorgeous
Hi everyone, Ilina Crouse here, and I am thrilled to be on the Spellbinders blog again, this time around featuring the Gorgeous You Collection. Having two girls who are just getting into make-up and all things pretty, this collection was right down my alley, and I had so much fun playing and making cards using the products. All the products from this collection are amazing and I had such hard time choosing products for each card. I especially love the Make Up Bag die set, as it includes inserts to make it into a gift card holder and a connector piece to make a shaped card. I thought these additional…

Jack of All Trades collection by Jaycee Gaspar is available on January 10th 2025. There are so many amazing products in the Jack of All Trades collection…
