    November 10, 2025 / No Comments

    Hi friends! Emily Midgett from emilymidgett.com here with you today on the Spellbinders blog, and I am thrilled to be working with the fabulous new The Wonder of Oz Collection from Graphic 45! Watching Judy Garland sing her heart out as a child was one of the many musicals that piqued my musical interest as a young child, and so the Wizard of Oz has always been dear to my heart. My twins were even dressed as Dorothy and the Cowardly Lion for their first Halloween! The images in the Wonder of Oz collection are in the classic and intricate illustration style from the original book by Frank L. Baum,…

    October 28, 2025 / 2 Comments

    Hello crafty friends, Rachel Alvarado here, and I’m thrilled to be back on the Spellbinders Blog sharing some festive cards using products from the new Happier Hour Collection. I absolutely love this collection because it covers a variety of occasions with a bunch of coordinating sentiments to choose from. ICE CREAM SHAKER CARD My first card features the adorable Fountain Wishes Etched Dies. My inspiration for this card came from my sweet little blue Parakeet (aka Blueberry), who spends many hours a day sitting on my shoulder, chatting away.

    June 12, 2025 / 1 Comment

    Hi there, crafty friends! I’m Rebecca Keppel, and today I am sharing a how to tutorial creating a shaker card and decorating it with the Cheerful Chirps Pretty Birds Die Set. The Spellbinders Cheerful Chirps Collection has several adorable bird-themed die sets. One of my favorites is the Pretty Birds dies, which showcases two sweet birds sitting on a perch. I thought it would be fun to create a shaker window behind the perch, but before we get to the shaker, let’s put the cute birds together! The birds are very simple to assemble. Add a bit of liquid adhesive to the body of the bird where you will add the…
