    Color Block Backgrounds 3 Ways with Annie Williams

    May 11, 2022 / No Comments

    Hi there, this is Annie Williams and I’m thrilled to be back on the blog today to share a couple of projects using the new Color Block Backgrounds Collection from Spellbinders. The bold and versatile dies in this collection inspired me to create three cards with fun backgrounds for a variety of occasions. Color Blog Cloudscape All of the different cloud formations in the Color Block Cloudscape Die Set had me imagining a dreamy night sky.

    Rainbow Cards with the NEW Cardmaker Collection

    March 9, 2022 / No Comments

    Hello everyone, it’s Cassie Trask here, and I’m pretty excited to be guesting here on the Spellbinders blog! I’ve always loved primary colors, and I love that there are so many ways to use them to make a rainbow. Since the NEW Cardmaker Collection had a few solid image stamps and a couple of new beautiful backgrounds, I thought it would be fun to highlight background techniques using the rainbow.
