    Deal Me Few Cards for Multiple Occasions

    January 8, 2025 / 2 Comments

    Hi everyone, Ilina Crouse here, and I am thrilled to be on the Spellbinders blog again. I spent a lot of my youth playing cards with friends and family. They were the days when social media didn’t exist, and we were “forced” to give each other undivided attention 😉 When I saw the Jack of All Trades Collection by Jacee Gaspar it brought a lot of fun memories from my childhood and had so much fun creating the cards I am sharing today. Jack of All Trades collection by Jaycee Gaspar is available on January 10th 2025. There are so many amazing products in the Jack of All Trades collection…

    Applying the 60/30/10 Color “Rule” to Nichol’s Needlework Collection

    July 25, 2024 / No Comments

    Hello crafters! Joan Bardee here sharing cards made with the darling Nichol’s Needlework collection. The highlight of this collection is a die that creates an embroidery hoop, screw, and “fabric.” Nichol Spohr combined her love of cardmaking and needlework in this collection and I think you are going to love it. For me, cardmaking is all about color! There is a design “rule” that uses color to help achieve a cohesive or balanced design. The rule is that the primary or dominant color should be 60% of the design, a secondary color 30%, and an accent color 10%. While I’ve been aware of this rule for a while, I find…

I’m sharing three cards using Nature’s Botanicals Collection designed by Susan Tierney-Cockburn!! LIVE LIFE IN FULL BLOOM For my first card, I die-cut the flowers, branches, and leaves from the Flowering Quince die set from Barely Peach, Saffron and Rainforest cardstocks.

    April 27, 2024 / 1 Comment

    Hello friends! This is Mindy Eggen and I’m excited to be on the Spellbinders blog to share with you some inspiration using the House-Mouse Spring Has Sprung collection. These are such great sets where you can stamp out a bunch of images, pack a handful of markers, and color on the go! You don’t even need to do a lot of coloring as these are so artistically drawn. All of my images are stamped on Hammermill cardstock with alcohol marker-friendly ink. I followed the lines of the artist using my Copic markers to color in the image and enhance the look of texture with my darkest color of marker. This…

For the fifth layer, I masked off the dots in the centers of the flowers and inked the lines in the petals with dye ink. Then I masked off the…

    Hello crafty friends! It’s Carol here today and I’m totally thrilled to be back today to share three ideas using the totally adorable House-Mouse Christmas collection! I’m not normally a “critter” stamp-loving person, but when I saw the first House-Mouse Collection here at Spellbinders, I was in love with these adorable mice. Did you know that they even have names?!!  Take a close look at the package images and you will see the names! For this first card, I used the Bringing Christmas to You stamp set. This cute little mouse’s name is Monica! First I stamped the adorable image with little Monica pulling the beautiful ornament through the snow…
