Add the Perfect Finishing Touch With Mini Wax Seals
Hello there, Michelle Short here and I am delighted to be back on the Spellbinders blog using the Mini Wax Seals collection. As the name suggests, these wax seals are much smaller in size that the previous ones and are oh-so cute! I think they are the perfect finishing touch for cards, tags, boxes and more! JUST A NOTE My first card uses two of the new Mini Wax Seals. I thought they would look great on mini envelopes. They are a little on the large size for the envelopes I used, but I still think they look great! To make this card: Die cut the envelope from Love Note…

Pretty in Pink with On Your Wedding Day Collection
Hey there, crafty friends! Marie here again from Marie Nicole Designs. I am thrilled to be back on the Spellbinders blog to bring you several card designs I crated using the On Your Wedding Day collection! This is a Better Press plate collection featuring the calligraphy of Paul Antonio. The skillful lettering is absolutely beautiful and lends itself well to these wedding-themed cards. I chose a few shades of pink for my cards, but you could easily change the colors to suit the theme of any wedding you may be creating these for. A few of the sentiments aren’t specifically wedding, either, so don’t feel like these sentiments are ONLY…

Autumn is Upon Us!
Hello there, Michelle Short here and I am delighted to be back on the Spellbinders blog using the Woodland Tales Collection. Autumn/fall is upon is here in the Northern Hemisphere and this Woodland Tales Collection is perfect for the season (but can be used all round too!). Whilst my color palette doesn’t necessarily give autumn vibes, the subject matter does! EACH DAY IS A GIFT For my first project, I wanted to use Finley the Fox. I thought that he would look great nestled in an autumn forest background. For me, mushrooms work perfectly for autumn, so I grabbed them and got to work die-cutting! To make this card: Die…

Using a Single Color Palette to Create Three Cards!
Hi crafty friends! It’s Cassie Trask back with another blog post where I’m going to share a few cards using the new Falling Leaves Collection. It may be in the 90s here in South Georgia, but I am very ready for Fall, and a Fall color palette is where it’s at! A Rainy Fall Background Fall often brings about some rain, which is why I like this Autumn Rain BetterPress Plate. It’s such a pretty plate that gives you the opportunity to use lots of color especially when you use the Layered Autumn Rain Stencil. For all of my cards I brought in the Thanks Enclosed Sentiments dies, because they…

Adding Dimension to your Fall Projects
Hi Spellbinders fans. Alanna Moses from EmbellishCraftLove.com and I am very excited to be guesting on the Spellbinders blog today. Today, I am working with the Falling Leaves collection. This collection has a press plate with coordinating stencil, a 3D embossing folder, and three wax seals. All of these products are so beautiful and pair perfectly together. For my first card, I started by taking the Autumn Rain BetterPress and Stencil Bundle and used my BetterPress machine to ink up the press plate. I used the Opal Blush Shimmer Interference Ink Pad from Lisa Horton Crafts. I then used the coordinating stencils to color the umbrellas and leaves. I trimmed…
