    Spring Has Sprung!

    March 13, 2024 / No Comments

    Hi folks, Kavya from @handmadebykavya is here with some fun inspiration for Simon Hurley’s new collection – Tulip Garden. I love playing with dies, especially ones that can be used in multiple ways. You will find that the collection is versatile as well! I have three cards for you today, all inspired by different painting styles! Renaissance Tulip Painting My first card was inspired by Renaissance paintings. Muted florals on dark green faded background provides enough contrast for an interesting card! I started off by ink-blending some dark green cardstock with dark green and black dye inks. Then, I die cut the card using Stitched Starry Argyle die, Infinity Punch…

    Hi there, this is Annie Williams and I’m thrilled to be back on the blog today to share a couple of projects using wax seals made with the latest wax bead colors and bead mixes from Spellbinders.  The fun new colors and mixes give you so many more color scheme possibilities when adding wax seals to your projects and I was inspired to create two cards and a pretty embellished envelope. Birthday in Blues Card I loved the richness of the new Ink Wax Beads and thought it would be fun to create a monochromatic (mostly) birthday card with all of my favorite blue Spellbinders supplies. Melt Ink Wax Beads…

Melt Black Wax Beads and press with the Scattered Flowers Wax Seal Stamp on a silicone mat. Once cool, lightly apply a gold metallic marker over the raised areas of the seal.

    Hello crafty friends! It’s Jung here, and I am back with another guest post on the Spellbinders blog. For my projects today, I’m working with some products from the new Wax Seal collection. This was such a fun collection to work with! There are a couple methods to work with the wax seals. You can pour the wax, and seal them directly on your project. You can also make the wax seals on the silicone mat that comes with the wax seal kit, and then adhere them to your project. I am a bit of a perfectionist, so I made my wax seals on the silicone mat. That way, I…
