Stampendous Hello Spring Collection with Jennifer Kotas
Hello! I’m Jen Kotas from Who Stole My Glitter and I’m happy to be here today to share three cards featuring the Hello Butterfly Stamp Set from the Stampendous Hello Spring Collection. All of the products in this collection are beautiful. I enjoyed pairing the Quick Card Backgrounds up with these stamps as well. I sometimes struggle when I don’t have dies for my stamps so, for these cards, I tried to find other ways to add interest and dimension without coordinating dies. Die cut the Essential Four Petal Labels dies from white cardstock and slightly larger from Joy of Spring Quick Card Backgrounds. Stamp two butterflies and the sentiment…

Trio of Floral Reflection Collection Cards with Jung AhSang
Hello crafty friends! It’s Jung here, and I am so happy to be returning for another guest post on the Spellbinders blog. For my projects today, I’m working with some products from the Floral Reflection collection. I love all the florals in the collection, and especially the heart dies! For my first card, I started with the Floral Reflection dies, along with the Essential Floral Reflection die. First, I die-cut all the dies in the Floral Reflection die set on white cardstock for the flower pieces, and craft cardstock for the larger foliage piece. I die-cut everything twice since you need 2 of the floral pieces to cover the shaped…

Hello! I’m Jen Kotas from whostolemyglitter.com and I’m happy to be here today to share three Floral Reflection Collection easel cards.

Anything you wish to pop up when open can only…
