    Creating Bougie Cards with a Limited Color Palette

    January 17, 2025 / 1 Comment

    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. Since this blog post is all about being a little bougie, I’ll be sharing how to create that glamorous look with a limited color palette. The color palette I’m using is brown, cream/white, peach and touches of sparkle. I’ll also be sharing these in three different card sizes: A2, A7 and a gift card holder, so no matter what size you love to create in, there will be an idea for you! Bougie Cake with Macarons Card This A7 card makes a…

    February 10, 2024 / No Comments

    Hi dear Spellbinders friends! It’s Angela here and today I have a cute mini album to show you.

    Santa’s Here Die 3 Ways!

    July 31, 2023 / No Comments

    Hi friends, Angela here. Welcome to Spellbinders blog. I had the pleasure to create a few cards with the fun new die Santa’s Here from Christmas Classic collection and I am very happy to share them with you! Before starting with the cards, let me tell you a story. Do you know that Santa Claus originates from the Dutch Sinterklaas? And do you know that he dresses also green? Sinterterklaas is the Dutch name of the fantastic character derivate from St. Nicholas, also called Sint Nicolaas. This explains the existence of several English variants of the name, like Santa Claus, Saint Nicholas, St. Nick. His green suit color is a…

    Hello crafty friends! It’s Angela Tombari here, from I Need Confetti, and today I would like to show you what I created with the new Postage Edge Shapes dies by Becca Feeken.

    Hello, crafty friends! It’s Emily Leiphart here and I’m thrilled to be guesting on the Spellbinders blog, featuring the Boo Dance Party Collection. I selected some non-tradition colors for this set of Halloween cards and I hope you’re inspired to try something different for your Halloween cards this year. This collection is so adorable and I think these colors suit the sweetness of these products!

    Hello, my fabulous friends, it’s Kassi Hulet here, and I’m excited to be guest designing, and sharing some fun projects featuring the new flowers from the Through the Garden Gate collection!  I have been daydreaming of being able to walk out into the garden and see flowers everywhere… I’m beyond ready for the constant rain to give way to sunshine, and for it to really feel like spring. I can’t control the weather, so I’ll just have to fill my studio with flowers while I wait! When I looked up photos of hollyhocks to see what colors they come in, I found a spectrum of warm colors…pinks, reds, oranges, and…

    Reverse Foiling Ideas with Michelle Short and Essential Glimmer Solid Shapes Collection

    April 13, 2022 / 1 Comment

    Hello there, Michelle Short here with some inspiration using the new Essential Glimmer Solid Shapes Collection. This is such a fun collection as you get to use up all of your scraps after foiling. There are so many different designs that work with reverse foiling. I love that these are shapes, but you can also cut your own shapes too! I have used the circle, rectangle (in a slightly different way!), and square today but there is also an oval. I found that I got great results by heating up the Glimmer Hot Foil System platform twice and also using the hinge method for foiling – by taping down the…
