    April 6, 2022 / No Comments

    Hello, crafty friends! This is Hussena from Quill and Punch Works, and I am so excited to be guest designing on the Spellbinders blog today featuring the Celebrate You Collection. This is a large collection with lots of great gifting and greeting cards goodies that pair beautifully with cardstock or patterned paper for a quick easy card, or something a little more stepped up with the addition of floral dies.

I have three projects to share, highlighting the NEW Bibi’s Butterflies Collection by Bibi Cameron. The GORGEOUS butterflies and the wonderful sentiments in this Collection inspired me to create a set of three cards perfect for sending to your friends and family! The Delicate Butterflies Etched Dies is my favorite die set from the Collection and I couldn’t wait to use it for my card here. I cut and colored the butterflies and flowers and added them to a glitter stenciled background for this soft congratulations…

    January 31, 2022 / 1 Comment

    Hi there, this is Annie Williams and I’m excited to be back on the blog today to share a couple of projects using the new Classicly Becca Collection from Spellbinders. The intricate backgrounds, gorgeous sentiments, and beautiful florals inspired me to create three bright springtime cards for a variety of occasions.

    Precision Layering Basics with Jennifer Kotas

    January 19, 2022 / 3 Comments

    Hello! My name is Jen Kotas and I’m so happy to be on the Spellbinders blog today. I’ve got three cards to share with you made using the new Precision Layering Basics Dies.
