    Using Specialty Papers with Love on the Rocks

    December 11, 2024 / 1 Comment

    Hello crafters! Joan Bardee here and I’m excited to share with you the fantastic Love on the Rocks Collection. The collection consists of a gorgeous floral BetterPress Letterpress cover plate, a sentiment set, and one die set that focuses on a cut glass with ice cubes, hearts and strawberries. The collection is perfect for Valentine’s Day or any occasion where you want to send some love. The 3 cards I’m sharing today each use one of the many Spellbinders specialty papers. I’ve had these for quite some time and decided it was time to play with them. Two of my cards use specialty papers over the entire card front, and…

    Crafting With Doodlebug – Cardmaking Ideas You Need To Try

    August 13, 2023 / 1 Comment

    Hi there, this is Annie Williams and I’m excited to be back on the blog today to share a bunch of cards made with some of the beautiful Doodlebug products available in the Spellbinders shop. I paired many of the brightly colored cards and envelopes, sweet patterned papers, and fun washi tapes and embellishments with some of my favorite Spellbinders dies to create cards for many different kinds of occasions. Mailbox Thank You Card I hear a lot of crafters say that they love patterned paper, but struggle to use it on their projects sometimes, especially those with bolder colors and patterns. Here I turned a bright stripe pattern into…

    The Versatility of Shape Dies Using Products from the Sealed for Summer Collection with Joan Bardee

    June 30, 2023 / No Comments

    Hello crafters! Joan Bardee here and I’m happy to be back on the blog. Spellbinders recently released the Sealed for Summer collection, which includes a variety of beautiful products, including another set of “essential” shape dies – Essential Modern Ovals. I’m featuring that product today, as well as the Glimmer Alphabet. In addition to the new Essential Modern Ovals dies, Spellbinders has a line of shape dies (as opposed to dies that cut out a coordinating image) that are so versatile. These dies, such as, Hexi-Gems, Hearts, and Circles, can be the starting point for making colorful, graphic, geometric designs, as well as more traditional cards. Today I’m sharing 3…

    Butterfly Kisses: 3 Ways – Complicated to Simple by Joan Bardee

    January 18, 2023 / 1 Comment

    Hello and welcome! I’m Joan Bardee and today I’m featuring 3 cards using the Butterfly Kisses stamp and die set designed by the amazing Simon Hurley. I’ve got something for everyone here; the first card has lots of layers and colors; the second repeats 2 images; and the third is clean and simple. Used a lot of purple on these cards, which is a color that I rarely use – but butterflies just seem to work with it! Floral Frame Card Used Yana Smakula’s “perfect cardmaking formula” to design this card. This was a stretch for me as I usually make much simpler cards. Yana’s formula is to place a…

    Hi there, this is Annie Williams and I’m thrilled to be back on the blog today to share a couple of projects using the new Glimmer Greetings Collection from Spellbinders.
