Favorite 2023 Club Kits Hop

Hello there, thank you for stopping by. Today, I am hopping along with Spellbinders and several of my fellow designers. We are creating with our favorites things from the 2023 Club Kits!  

The club kits from Spellbinders are so well done, it was very hard for me to choose favorites. If you are new to the Spellbinders Club Kit program get all the details about it HERE.

I chose four different club kits for my card today; Large Die of the Month for July 2023 - Stocking Full of Joy, Clear Stamp of the Month for October 2023 - Festive Penguins, 3D Embossing Folder of the Month for July 2023 - Adorning the Tree, and Wax Seal of the Month for October 2023 - Merry Christmas To You. So, I guess that means October 2023 was my favorite month of kits! Let's take a look at the card I made. 

I really wanted to use this image of the stacked up penguins and had yet to do so, and that is where this card began. If you'd like to see the first card I made with this darling penguin set you can catch that one HERE.

You can see the SHORT YouTube video I made of this card on my YouTube channel. 

I also wanted to use one of the backgrounds I made for my video 13 MORE Ways to use 3D Embossing Folder.  And that is where the background for this card came from. So if you like inky techniques and ideas for 3D Embossing folders make sure you check out that video, RIGHT HERE.

I was very excited that Spellbinders added a Wax Seal Kit of the Month, I have so much fun making these!!!  So I knew I wanted to include one on my card today. 

But one of my most FAVORITE kits is the Stocking Full of Joy Large Die of the Month. I have TWO video's featuring this die set. I have made two other cards and a tag. Watch those videos here; July 2023 Club Kits Video and Light Up Shaker Card with Stocking Full of Joy.

The greenery and candy cans on this card are from the Stocking Full of Joy die set. I LOVE how those candy canes turned out. I die cut the candy canes from white card stock, colored them with Copic Markers, added white gel pen touches and then covered them with Glaze. The red and pink candy cane I actually colored on the backside of the candy cane, so I had one facing the opposite direction. 

And now it is time to enjoy this hop. I personally can not WAIT to see what my fellow designers have created, there is a lot of talent in this group!

My favorite club is the stitch club. Some of the cards elements I see here have me rethinking my choice.
