    Celebrate Summer and Sunshine with Cards

    July 5, 2025 / No Comments

    Hi there, crafty friends! I’m Rebecca Keppel and today I am sharing three cards using the La Dolce Vita Collection! This collection offers a stunning assortment of dies that make it easy to create modern, beautiful, summery designs that truly celebrate a day of sunshine!

    Hello! Jen Kotas here today with a step by step photo tutorial creating a card with the Lemon Fresco 3D Embossing Folder. I walk you through embossing with a 3D embossing folder, die cutting elements to add to the card, and creating BetterPress sentiments. Mist Classic White ColorWheel Cardstock with water before embossing to prevent cardstock from cracking. Line up Classic White ColorWheel Cardstock in the section you wish to emboss of the Lemon Fresco 3D Embossing Folder.

    Sweet Summertime Cards with the La Dolce Vita Collection

    July 3, 2025 / 4 Comments

    Hi there, this is Annie Williams and I’m excited to be back again on the blog today to share a couple of bright summertime cards made with the new La Dolce Vita Collection from Spellbinders.  The unique die sets, beautiful embossing folder, and gorgeous sentiments in this collection inspired me to create three colorful cards for a variety of occasions. Lemon Thank You Card Confession: I buy lemons nearly every week just to brighten up my kitchen.  So naturally, I gravitated to the Citrus Spritz Die Set first to brighten up someone’s day!  Here I used it to create a colorful thank you card for a friend. Die cut white,…
