    Open the Door to Love – Two Takes with Open House Valentines

    January 3, 2022 / 4 Comments

    Hello fellow crafters. It’s Jean sharing two Valentines created with the Open House Valentines die set, part of the Love You More Collection. This die set expands the Open House Collection to include another holiday. Let’s look at how I decorated two doors for Valentine’s Day. For the first card, I started by choosing black foil cardstock for the door as a way for the red elements to pop. Create A-2 card base with patterned paper (example shows vellum added to paper to tone down the pattern). Add 5/8-inch strip of gray cardstock to base of card front. Die-cut door with the Open House Door Base set and side lights…

    Open House Collection Inspiration with Sheri Holt

    August 19, 2021 / 1 Comment

    Hello! It’s Sheri here again from My Sheri Cards and I am so happy to be sharing 3 different versions I created using the Open House Door and add-on dies in the Open House Collection. All of these cards measure 4-1/4” x 5-1/2” but they are great on any size card. I usually work with patterned papers on my cards but I kept it simple this time. White Door Card Although the Open House Door Base die can be used all on its own, the add-on dies are must-haves! This card features the Open House Door Base in white in addition to the Open House Door Side Panels. The door…

I had the pleasure of creating with the gorgeous Open House Collection, and I have three cards to share with you. This collection is so versatile and is perfect for any occasion, from new-home cards to missing-you to Christmas, just to name a few. Happy For You Open House For my first card, I chose to make a mini slimline card featuring that beautiful door from the Open House Door Base Dies.

    August 17, 2021 / 1 Comment

    Hi there, this is Annie Williams and I’m thrilled to be back on the blog today to share a couple of projects using the new Open House Collection from Spellbinders.  The fun and welcoming scene-building die sets in this collection inspired me to create three cheerful cards perfect for sending a warm hello or a special note . Open House Hello Scene-building die sets can be a little intimidating, so I wanted to start by creating a simpler front door step with just a few special touches first. Using mainly the Open House Door Base Die set, this cheerful door card is perfect for sending a happy hello, especially to…

    Open House Collection – Holiday Card Inspiration With Michelle Short

    August 16, 2021 / 3 Comments

    Hello there, Michelle Short here and I am delighted to be sharing three cards with you today using the new Open House Collection. This die cutting collection features four sets that you can mix and match to create wonderful front door scenes. These are perfect for Christmas/winter cards, like I have used them today, but these would work equally well for non-holiday cards too. FROM OUR HOME TO YOURS CARD My first card is a card that would be lovely to send to holiday guests inviting them to stay, or simply as a holiday card in general. It could even be used as a non-holiday card! I started off by…
