    From Quick Cards to Interactive Designs | Breakfast in Bed Card Tutorials

    February 13, 2026 / 1 Comment

    Hello, crafty friend! I’m Adrienne Boese, better known online as Alice Scraps Wonderland. Today we are going to play with the Rosie’s Studio Breakfast in Bed collection. There are a bunch of cute food puns in the ephemera pack with sentiments in it, so that is what will be our main theme focus. And I’ll be sharing 3 different cards, from quick and easy to interactive! And to show the versatility of this collection, I’ve got a gorgeous scrapbook layout over on my own blog that you don’t want to miss! Even if you are a card maker, you’ll get inspiration from this layout, so be sure to head over…

    Taking the Fear Out of 3D Florals

    January 23, 2026 / 6 Comments

    Looking to bring the beauty of real botanicals to your handmade cards? Jean Manis here, sharing my experience working with The Poet’s Garden Collection by Susan Tierney-Cockburn for Spellbinders. Susan’s flowers are known for their lifelike detail, and this collection is no exception. In this post, I’ll walk you through how I approach her dimensional florals with a beginner-friendly process. Let’s step into the garden together!   To start, cut each flower from white cardstock and use Susan’s videos to create the blooms to see their true size and form. Because the flowers are dimensional, making a “draft” version is helpful because you won’t know their scale until you make…

    Hello crafters! It’s Lisa Tilson here with you today on the Spellbinders blog. I’m delighted to be here to share some ways to use the Copperplate On Your Wedding Day Collection with you. This is a beautiful collection by Paul Antonio that includes four wedding-themed press plates although the “Sending Love” plate can be used on a wider variety of cards. All the Copperplate collections feature a beautiful Copperplate script that serves as the focal point of your card. As with all press plates, you can also foil them, so you get double the fun!

    Hello Crafty Friends, Heejung Hunsberger here! I’m thrilled to be returning as a guest designer for Spellbinders this month again! I love the Copperplate Collection series.

    Adding Dimension to your Fall Projects

    October 2, 2024 / 1 Comment

    Hi Spellbinders fans. Alanna Moses from EmbellishCraftLove.com and I am very excited to be guesting on the Spellbinders blog today. Today, I am working with the Falling Leaves collection. This collection has a press plate with coordinating stencil, a 3D embossing folder, and three wax seals. All of these products are so beautiful and pair perfectly together. 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. I love creating Halloween cards and, much like my cards for past collections like Boo Dance Party, I wanted to spark inspiration with a fun, non-traditional color palette. The Happy Haunting Collection includes so many fabulous products and I chose to feature Fiona the Dancin’ Witch, Woof-or-Treat and Witchin’ Heels. I may be sharing only three cards here but you’ll definitely see more from this collection.

    Incorporating Patterned Paper Into The Fair Winds Collection With Emily Leiphart

    June 13, 2024 / 1 Comment

    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. I wanted to create my cards with a non-traditional color palette and I was inspired by the colors from the Simple Stories Just Beachy 6×8” Paper Pad. Each card features the patterned paper in a different way — the border, a small selection of die cuts, and a centerpiece background. This first card features the Uncharted Waters Stencil, Guiding Light Dies, Set Sail Dies, and the Fair Winds Sentiments.…

    Hi there, this is Annie Williams and I’m excited to be back on the blog today to share a couple of simple, yet elegant cards made with the new Timeless Collection from Spellbinders.  The ornate designs and beautiful heartfelt sentiments in this collection are easy to mix and match and I was inspired to create three pretty cards with them for different occasions. Soft & Pretty Sympathy Card I took a quick trip to the beach recently and was intrigued by all of the beautiful colors that complemented the soft tones of the sand.  Afterward, I pulled out several sandy colors of cardstock and paired them with different pops of…
