    Snowflake Card Ideas in Pink!

    August 19, 2023 / No Comments

    Hey there, crafty friends! It’s Leica here, and I’m excited to show you three lovely cards using the fantastic Bibi’s Snowflakes collection. This collection is all about embracing the winter season with its charming designs. Let’s dive into the cards I made! For the first one, I went with a square shape. The main attraction is the Delicate Snowflakes Etched Dies. The words on the card are shiny and white, thanks to the Glimmering Snowflakes Hot Foil Plate & Die Set. The edges of the card are adorned with the Nestabilities Essential Squares Etched Dies, giving it a delightful dotted look. On to the second card! This time, I chose…

    January 11, 2023 / No Comments

    Hello crafty friends! It’s Jung here, and I share 3 cards that I made using the new Showered with Love collection by Vicky Papaioannou. Umbrella Blooms Slimline Card For my first card, I used the Umbrella Bloom dies to create a vertical slimline card. First, I die-cut all the dies in the Umbrella Bloom die set. For the umbrella pieces, I die-cut them several times to make a total of 4 umbrellas. Next, I glued together all the umbrella pieces, and the floral pieces. For my background panel, I trimmed a piece of white cardstock to be slightly smaller than a slimline card, then used Distress inks to create an…

    Hi there, this is Annie Williams and I’m so happy to have the opportunity to share a couple of projects using the new Glimmer Essentials Collection from Spellbinders.  The Essential Duo Line Glimmer plates create the perfect accent border for any background, sentiment, or focal image and I was inspired to create two bright springtime cards combining all of the different shapes. Simple circle borders are always the perfect backdrop for a rustic wreath, so I created this cheerful floral birthday card using both the Essential Duo Line Glimmer Circles and Squares.
