For my first card, I started by taking the Autumn Rain BetterPress and Stencil Bundle and used my BetterPress machine to ink up the press plate. I used the Opal Blush Shimmer Interference Ink Pad from Lisa Horton Crafts. I then used the coordinating stencils to color the umbrellas and leaves. I trimmed…

Hello, crafty friends! This is Emily Leiphart and I’m thrilled to be back on the Spellbinders blog, featuring the Happy Haunting Collection.

Incorporating Patterned Paper Into The Fair Winds Collection With Emily Leiphart
Hello, crafty friends! This is Emily Leiphart and I’m thrilled to be back on the Spellbinders blog, featuring the Fair Winds Collection by Dawn Woleslagle. This is such a fun coastal and nautical collection, perfect for summertime cards of all occasions.

This first card features the Uncharted Waters Stencil, Guiding Light Dies, Set Sail Dies, and the Fair Winds Sentiments.…

Patterned papers can be a little intimidating to some due to busy patterns or bright colors, but I hope these techniques can help to show how easily they can add texture and color to an otherwise plain card. Pretty Floral Hello Card I love buffalo plaid, but it can be a very bold look and draw too much attention away from your focal point sometimes. Here I toned this blue plaid pattern down a bit by splitting…
