Handmade Collection Inspiration | Baby Boy & Baby Girl Cards by Ashlea
Hello everyone! My name is Ashlea and I am so very excited to be guest designing and blogging for the Spellbinders blog this month. Today is the first post of three that I will be featuring the incredible Handmade collection by Stephanie Low. I’ll be using the Creativity Handmade stamp and die set to create two cards that use the image stamps instead of a written sentiment, yet still make a clear statement. I often stamp sentiments onto my cards to compliment the images, but I love the idea of a card where the image speaks for itself. Here, I accomplished that by using specific colored ink with the stitched…

Love Set Match Inspiration | It’s Your Time To Shine with Laurie
Hey there! It’s Laurie Willison here with a couple more projects using the Love Set Match Collection by Debi Adams. I love her adorable little images and big unique sentiments. For my first project, I used the set called Love Bunch. I created a simple card base by adding the sentiment along the bottom and then rounding each of the corners with my Corner Chomper. I die cut and colored the lunch box and thermos using Copic Markers and then added them to a scored, circle die cut. I popped the circle up on foam tape and then attached that to the card. These fun little images make for the best clean…

No promises in making enough for all. HA! Very excited and pleased to share my NEW Holiday 2017 Stamp and Dies Sets by Stephanie Low. I am particularly fond of my Nativity stamp – it’s unique and is a clever portrayal. The whole illustration has a handmade look…
Creative DIY Party Decor Series | So Sweet Watermelon Birthday Party
The party planner gal that I am had to do something for my oldest daughter’s birthday (even though she is in her 30’s), so I bought these super cool plates, napkins and cups and began planning, designing and making. It wasn’t long before I had a plethora of DIY projects to go with the initial decor. The best part was that they all had the same key component, namely the watermelon, featured throughout the tablescape. I would love to show you how you can make these creations so that you can custom design what fits best for your party occasion. Let’s start with how I made the watermelon and slice.…
