    Colorful Leaves Cards

    September 29, 2024 / No Comments

    Hello Crafty Friends, Heejung Hunsberger here! I’m thrilled to be returning as a guest designer for Spellbinders this month again! If you’d like to get to know me better, visit my blog or follow me on Instagram. Additionally, I have a YouTube channel where I regularly post video tutorials. Today, I’m sharing three cards featuring the Falling Leaves Collection. The Falling Collection includes three beautiful wax seal stamps, the Acorn Trio 3D embossing folder, and the Autumn Rain Better Press Plate & Stencil. Acorn Trio 3D Embossed Card First, I embossed the Oak Forest 3D embossing folder onto the Forest cardstock to create the background. I shaded the corner over…

    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…

    Game Day Collection – Sport Themed Card Ideas

    October 3, 2023 / No Comments

    Hi everyone – Alanna Moses here and I’m thrilled to be guesting on the Spellbinders blog using the new Game Day collection from Justine Dvorak. I am a huge sports fan, so this fun collection was right up my alley. YOU’RE THE BEST AROUND For my first card, I started with the Athletic Apparel die set. This die set is brilliant in that with just a few changes or additions, you can create jerseys for different sports or even a polo t-shirt.  I die-cut the main portion of the jersey along with the two sleeves from black card stock. I then took the Hummingbird Textures stencil and blended on some…

    Stitched Numbers and Punctuation Inspiration With Jennifer Kotas

    April 21, 2023 / No Comments

    Hello! I’m Jen Kotas from Who Stole My Glitter and I’m happy to be here today to share three cards featuring the Stitched Numbers and More Collection. I absolutely love stitching on cards and these new numbers and punctuation complement the stitched letters and are a new favorite. The instructions for each card are mostly the same so I’ve written them out only once, making note of differences. Die cut the stitched number, punctuation, and letter dies from Stitched Numbers and Stitched Punctuation and Symbols Etched Dies out of the desired color of cardstock twice and adhere them together. I used Snowflake, Wild Berry, and Lagoon. Stitch the die cuts…

    The Be Bold Collection – Building Paper Floral Creations

    January 24, 2022 / 4 Comments

    Hello crafty friends! It’s Jean here sharing three cards created with the Be Bold Collection at Spellbinders. This distinctive collection of and floral and foliage dies, lower- and uppercase alphabet sets, punctuation dies, embossing folders, and casual script sentiments lends itself to endless creative possibilities. I took an organic approach to designing my creations like assembling a floral bouquet. Let’s take a look as I share the cards from start to finish. To begin, I selected three dark cardstock backgrounds. I started die-cutting the letters, sentiments, florals, and foliage from a variety of cardstock colors. Usually, I decide my colors ahead of time, rather than take this more playful approach.…
