    Classics March Collection Inspiration | More Simple Card Ideas with Marge

    March 16, 2018 / 5 Comments

    Hello, there! It’s Marge here with you today again. Have you enjoyed my previous posts for Spellbinders New Classics March Collection? As the third theme for this week, I’m going to share how to use die cut layering to create dimensions on your card. Here are the examples that I made geometric blossoms using various nested circle-shaped dies. By doing this, you can also build up your favorite color palette on the card. To begin the first card, I made various sizes of die cuts out of several colors of papers using Fancy Scallop Edge Circles Dies. I gave them color gradation from yellow to orange and brown by selecting…

    Classics March Inspiration | Colorful Floral Card with Kaja

    March 15, 2018 / 1 Comment

    Hi there, it’s Kaja from Kajcyika crafts here with you today and I am back at Spellbinders blog as a guest designer for this week. As I’ve already mentioned in the first project I shared this week, I am using dies from a brand new Classics March release on all of the cards I share with you here. When I saw the Fancy Edged Circles I immediately thought that the smallest die reminders me of a flower, so I went with it and made a card filled with flowers. I started by die cutting the smallest scalloped circle from 5 different colors of card stock and I made 4 flowers…

    Classics March Collection Inspiration | Dry Embossed Cards with Marge

    March 14, 2018 / 9 Comments

    Hello, there! It’s Marge here again with gorgeous New Classics March Collection. Today I’m going to share how to make patterned backgrounds using dry embossing technique. Since all the dies in Classics March Collection are nested dies, with different patterns on frames one by one in a set, they are just perfect for making interesting patterns all together. So here are my cards for today. To begin, I cut a white card stock using the largest frame die in the Fancy Edged Rectangles Dies set, then I placed all other smaller dies on it one by one, put a piece of masking tape on them to keep them from moving…

    Die D-Lites Inspiration | Dainty Florals Congratulations Cards with Laurie

    February 28, 2018 / 1 Comment

    Hi there!  This is Laurie Schmidlin from Just Give Me Stamps and I’m excited to be guest posting here!  I’m always amazed at how much just tweaking the colors of a project can completely alter the look.  Today I will be sharing two cards with you, both the same in design but in different colors. For both of my cards, I am using dies from the new February Die D-Lites release.  I chose two dies from the Dainty Florals die set, one for the background and one for the focal image. I die cut the the seven petal bloom multiple times out of light gray cardstock and adhered them on…
