    Beautiful Backgrounds Cards with Joy

    August 5, 2024 / No Comments

    Hello crafty friends, I love a good background stamp! I’m going to show you three cards using three different background stamps from the Stampendous Beautiful Backgrounds. I used three different techniques with these awesome stamps. For my first card, I used the Leafy Lines background stamp, it has a pull-away piece that I used for this card design. On a piece of watercolor paper I hot-foiled the background with the Diagonal Glimmer Stripes (discontinued) and Aura foil. I stamped the corners with the Leafy Lines pull-away stamp piece. I colored the leaves with multiple colors using Karin Watercolor Markers. I added a few splatters with the Karin Markers and added…

    April 16, 2024 / No Comments

    Hello there Spellbinders friends! Lisa Tilson here from My Card Trip and I am excited to be back here with you on the Spellbinders blog. Today I have some cards to share using the More Fresh Picked Collection. I really loved the first Fresh Picked Collection so I was delighted to be asked to make some more cards for you using the latest release. There are three new floral sets and they are all super pretty. I think they are very simple to use and they definitely come together pretty quickly if you follow the intended design. The new sets have the same style as the first collection – big,…

    April 16, 2022 / 3 Comments

    Hello crafty friends! It’s Jung AhSang here, and I am so excited to be returning for another guest post on the Spellbinders blog.  If you’d like to follow my crafty projects, my blog is jungahsang.wordpress.com, and my Instagram is @junglebarrya. Today, I’m working with the Essential Glimmer Solid Shapes. I absolutely love the Glimmer Hot Foil system, and I always wanted to utilize the leftover foil from my projects. These glimmer solid shapes allow you to take advantage of that leftover foil.  There are 4 shapes: rectangle, square, oval, and circle. Reverse Diagonal Glimmer Stripes For my first card, I used the Essential Glimmer Solid Rectangle. I also used the…

    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…

    Hello, crafters. This is Yana Smakula, I’m thrilled to introduce my new collection with Spellbinders called Yana’s Blooms. I designed this collection with elegant Spring Birthday card making in mind. I give a lot of Birthday cards and my friends and family always ask me to make and give them some birthday cards for them to gift to their friends, thus I never have any on hand and this is the one type of card I need the most. This collection includes 7 products, 5 of them – hot foil glimmer plates and 2 – dies. S4-1169 MAGNOLIA BLOOMS DIE SET Magnolia is the design around the entire collection. I…
