    Retro Dance Party – Inspired Cards Featuring Shine Bright Collection by Carissa Wiley

    October 26, 2024 / No Comments

    Hello, crafty friends! This is Emily Leiphart and I’m thrilled to be back on the Spellbinders blog, featuring the disco-themed Shine Bright Collection by Carissa Wiley.

    August 21, 2022 / No Comments

    Hello, crafty friends! It’s Emily Leiphart here and I’m thrilled to be guesting on the Spellbinders blog, featuring the Boo Dance Party Collection. I selected some non-tradition colors for this set of Halloween cards and I hope you’re inspired to try something different for your Halloween cards this year. This collection is so adorable and I think these colors suit the sweetness of these products! Dancing Ghost Halloween Card I love all of the Spellbinders dies with swinging legs so when I saw the Dancin’ Ghost and Dancin’ Mummy, I couldn’t help but squeal!
