Hi friends! Emily Midgett from Sixth Street Sundries is here with you today on the Spellbinders blog, and I’m so excited to be featuring these beautiful new images from the Simon Hurley Spring Sampler Better Press collection!

Vibrant Rainbow Palette Using Simon Hurley’s Leaf Prints
Hello crafters! Joan Bardee here and I’m happy to be back on the Spellbinders blog sharing 3 bright, colorful cards using Simon Hurley’s Leaf Prints stamps and dies. Leaf Prints is a set of beautiful solid (no coloring!!) red rubber stamps of leaves and there is a coordinating set of dies available. Leaf Prints is perfect for fall cards, and normally I would go with a typical autumn color palette, but I used a vibrant rainbow palette instead and I love how they came out. Although, when you get to the 3rd card, you’ll see I’m second-guessing myself. Let me know what you think. RAINBOW BOUQUET This card packs a…

Here I created a shaker that looks like the hole of…

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…
