    July 15, 2023 / No Comments

    ColorSparx are highly pigmented watercolor powders, and there are a ton of ways you can use them to create super vibrant projects. They can be mixed with other mediums to produce your own custom supplies for all your needs, mixed them with texture paste, or iridescent medium, make your own mists with them using water and a spray bottle, calligraphy, watercolor painting, and the list goes on! Here are three cards I have made, along with some extra backgrounds that you can use for other cards. Simply add your own sentiments.

    Hello, this is Sheri Holt from My Sheri Cards. Today, I am thrilled to be sharing a trio of Christmas cards PLUS 4 holiday gift tags I have created with products included in the Winter Wonderland Collection. This collection consists of Christmas-themed papers, glitter sentiment stickers, and lots and lots of die-cut shapes and sentiments. From Our Home To Yours Card For my first card, I started with picking the fancy pink and gold foiled paper from the Winter Wonderland Paper Pad and cut it slightly smaller than the base and glued it to the A2 White Card Base.

    Hello fellow crafters. It’s Jean sharing three cards created with the Add to Cart Too Collection by Becky Roberts at Spellbinders. This collection, consisting of die and stamp sets, can be used to craft for a variety of occasions and works with the previously released Add to Cart Collection. My cards focus on the incredible variety of objects included in the sets. Rather than place the objects in the shopping cart, I created cards outside the carts. Let’s take a look.

    Hi again, this is Annie Williams and I’m excited to be back on the blog today to share a couple of projects using the May Embossing Folder of the Month Kit from Spellbinders. With its pretty and versatile pattern, the Faux Stitch Embossing Folder is one you’ll reach for over and over again to add subtle texture to all kinds of card projects. Tiny Sunbursts Although it mimics one of the beautiful patterns in many of the Spellbinders stitching dies, the Faux Stitch Embossing Folder also reminded me of tiny sunbursts. Here I used it to add texture to the background of a bright and pretty springtime scene. Trim a…

    Hello! It’s Andrea Shell with you, and I’m delighted to be back guest-designing on the Spellbinders blog. While I know that many of us are in the throes of holiday projects, I’m sharing two cards featuring Susan’s Tropical Getaway Dies. Think of this as a mini vacay! My first card uses the gorgeous Hibiscus Dies from the Tropical Getaway Collection. Don’t those flowers look so realistic?! That look is easy to achieve when you use Susan’s Specialty Cardstock and her Ultimate Took Kit and follow her methods for coloring and shaping the flowers (For tutorials visit the Spellbinders YouTube channel). I did that for both of my projects. To color…

    Hello! It’s Sheri again from My Sheri Cards and I am excited to be sharing 3 Halloween projects I created using the Halloween 2021 Collection. Some of these die sets are designed to work with the Open House Collection but I wanted to show that you can use them all on their own too! Spooky Greetings/Witch Card I love using green, orange and purple for Halloween projects. I had some Photo Play papers that were perfect for these projects. The witches hat and legs from the Let’s Be Frank die set were so fun to create and layer. They took a little patience with getting them paper pieced but I…
