    Three Sweet Birthday Cake Cards

    January 18, 2025 / No Comments

    Inspiration with Susan’s Tropical Getaway by Andrea Shell

    November 11, 2021 / 1 Comment

    Hello! It’s Andrea Shell with you, and I’m delighted to be back guest-designing on the Spellbinders blog. While I know that many of us are in the throes of holiday projects, I’m sharing two cards featuring Susan’s Tropical Getaway Dies. Think of this as a mini vacay! My first card uses the gorgeous Hibiscus Dies from the Tropical Getaway Collection. Don’t those flowers look so realistic?! That look is easy to achieve when you use Susan’s Specialty Cardstock and her Ultimate Took Kit and follow her methods for coloring and shaping the flowers (For tutorials visit the Spellbinders YouTube channel). I did that for both of my projects. To color…

    Hello, crafty friends!  It’s Andrea from Blissfully Scrappy with you to share two cards I created featuring the adorable Delightful Darlings Collection illustrated by Mayline Jung.  These girls are so cute and fun to color, and you can easily make them look like any little girl you know by changing your color choices.  What little (or big!) girl wouldn’t love a card with an image that looks like her?! Darling Hello First up is this cutie from the Darling Hello stamp set. Isn’t she so sweet and perky?! I stamped her and the butterflies from the set, colored them with Copics, and fussy-cut them. I really wanted to accentuate this little girl’s…

This is such a fun collection of amazing dies that I would consider essential, and an embossing folder. Let’s take a look at how I created these cards!
