    April 21, 2026 / 2 Comments

    Hi, crafty friends, it’s Heejung Hunsberger here, and I am incredibly honored to be featured as a Guest Designer on the Spellbinders blog today.

    August 7, 2025 / 1 Comment

    Hi there, crafty friends! I’m Rebecca Keppel, and I love the fall! The new Spellbinders Autumn Archives collection, designed by Kelly Bangs, has all my fall favorites. There’s patterned paper with cozy designs and fresh color combinations, and dies that make leaves and trees and pretty script BetterPress sentiments. The whole Autumn Archives collection works well together, whether you are creating scrapbook pages or cards. Use the 12×12 Patterned Paper to create a fun fall background. One of the plaid patterns looks like a warm sweater or flannel shirt! Tap some Raven Splatter Effects on the patterned paper.
