Spellbinder Picot Petite Circles and Squares - 3 Fall Cards

Hello there my stamping friends! Today I am sharing two new die sets from the Spellbinders shop, the Picot Petite Circle and Squares.  They are part of the Amazing Paper Grace collection by Becca Feeken. Although my style and Becca Feeken's style differ these dies are great for any style. I am using them to dress up some bold fall cards. 

First let's take a look at each of these die sets. 

Both are a set of four. Here are the sizes of the dies. 

Largest Die = 4.9 inches

Medium Die = 3.9 inches

Small Die = 2.9 inches

Smallest, shape die = 2 inches

These dies nest together perfectly.  You can die cut one of the dies on it's own for a decorative edge on your shape, or you can nest them together to die cut a beautiful frame. They also layer together for and even more stunning look. 

Let's take a look at the three cards I made with these dies. You can see the making of these cards in THIS VIDEO. 

My first card uses the Medium circle, cut as a frame. 

I put this circle onto a card that is 4-1/4" x 8-1/2", scored at 4-1/4". I added some sprayed and splattered ink, using Blue Lagoon and Shimmer Gold Silks and Citrus Cooler Silk, all from the Spellbinders Shop. They all have a touch of shimmer to them and make for a quick and easy background. You can see me make this background in the video that showcases these dies.

The pumpkins I used for today's card are from the Martha's Pumpkins stamp and die set. I also used my favorite embellishment, Rainbow Drops, on all of these cards for some bling! Look how that Picot Petite Circle so beautifully frames the pumpkins. 

For card two I wanted to layer up the circles, they are so pretty this way.  I used the largest circle as a frame and the medium circle with out the center cut out. For my background I used the Oatmeal Cookie stamp pad and drug it across this card stock panel to create a woodgrain like look.  

I would love to know what you think of Blue and Orange with Kraft as a fall color combination. 

Card Three is a Slimline card! 

The white panel on the front of this card measures 9" x 3". I was able to fit 2 die cut squares on the front and left the center whole to add some pumpkins and a sentiment. 

 

What do you think about the addition of blue to a fall color scheme?  

You can see the making of all three card and these dies in action in the video below. 

If you are having trouble seeing the video on this screen, you can also watch it here. 

I would love to know which card is your favorite!

Spellbinder Glimmer Hot Foil Kit of the Month - September 2020

I am so excited about the September Glimmer Hot Foil kit of the month!  It is a fun and versatile kit featuring RAINBOWS! Glimmer Hot Foiling rainbows is the just the perfect match! Take a look at all the plate and the two dies that come in this set. 

There are nine Glimmer Hot Foil plates and two dies in this months set and it comes with a roll of Rainbow Foil, what else??? 

You can see this kit in action in the video below. If you can not see the video you can also view it right here. 

Now let's take a closer look at each of the five cards I made. 

CARD ONE

For this card I used the Rainbow Foil on white card stock. The bows of the rainbow are die cut from the die in this set and inlaid back into the outline that the die creates.  The sentiment is also from this kit and is perfect in the rainbow foil.  I used an embossing folder for the background and splattered it with Sparkle Silk for that "just rained" look that happens when you see a rainbow.  I paired rainbow drops with several of my cards as the perfect embellishment. 

CARD TWO

I used several of the different rainbow plates to hot foil this rainbow with Rainbow foil on the outline and an array of foils for the bows. Each bow of the rainbow was added separately. To repeat the look of rainbow on this card I created a background panel with 1" strips of paper, adhering them to a piece of copy paper that is 5" x 3-3/4".  Putting these on to a thin sheet of paper allowed me to emboss the panel with my Cloudy embossing folder. 

CARD THREE

Of course I had to make a shaker card! This time I foiled light colored card stock with darker foil for an amazing look that I love. And perfect for a focal image on this shaker card! 

CARD FOUR

For this card I pulled out my favorite foil, OPAL and used it on all four of the bows of this rainbow. I used the cloud die to create a background. And Prism foil for my two sentiments. 

CARD FIVE

And I had to make a slimline card. For this one I used the left over die cuts from Card Three. No foiling on the rainbows themselves, but I did foil the sentiment. Clean and simple and so cute. 

I'd love to know which of the cards is your favorite!  Leave me a comment and let me know, I enjoying hearing from you. If you have any questions about Glimmer Hot Foiling feel free to ask as well.

Spellbinders Have Your Cake Large Die Set of the Month

I am excited that I get to decorate cake in today's post!  I have always said my creativity does not translate into frosting, but I can decorate a die cut paper cake and Spellbinders has made it very easy with the Large Die Kit of the Month for September!  

I used this die set to make a card and a gift tag. I have them pictured for you an a video so you can see this die set in action. 

First lets take a look at all the dies in this set. 

This die set is called Have Your Cake and it is a set of 25 dies. It die cuts a slice of cake and has 3 different sentiment options that fit in the open spaces of the cake slice.  There are dies to cut frosting, whip cream, fruits, and a candle. 

For my card I wanted to make a slimline card that I could put three different slices of cake on and use each of the sentiment options. 

This card measures 9" x 8", scored at 4".  These three cake slices just fit on it! A finished and put together cake slice measures: 2-7/8" x 3-1/2". 

I love that there are 3 options for sentiments in this die set. And the little die cut fruits are just too cute! 

I feel like my card is a scene at a bakery window, where you can buy cake by the slice. Which flavor would you choose? I know CHOCOLATE is missing, that is a card for another day. 

It is such a fun die set, I really wanted to make a rainbow cake. I thought a it would be fun to make it a shaker, on a coordinating gift tag. 

To create a shaker out of this die, I die cut the front of the cake slice piece 5 extra times, cut out the center lines, creating a frame out of each.  I then glued them together making a thick frame.  This gave me the space I needed for my shaker elements to move around so I adhered it behind the front panel that is attached to a window sheet. You can see the making of this in the video below and how it all came together. 

The sentiment on this card is from the Sprinkles stamp set. This stamp set is made to coordinate with the Large Die of the month, with two more sentiment options that you can stamp on the cake and a background stamp of sprinkles. AND, this stamp set is a FREE Gift!  

You can get this stamp set for FREE with a VIP Value Club Kit. There are three VIP Value Club Kits; The Works, Kit and Caboodle, and Glimmer Groupie. These are collections of various Club Kits, grouped together for added value and savings. If you are already a VIP Value Club Kit member this stamp set will come with your kit. If you subscribe or upgrade to one of these VIP Value Club Kits then you will get this stamp set with your order. Take a closer look a these bundles kits.

Right after making my first easel with this set I knew I wanted to make some Christmas ornaments with it. 

I stared out by making two easels, one in gray the other in Kraft card stock. 

I went through all my Christmas stamp sets and pulled out some I thought would make a fun watercolor looking art piece on this mini canvas. 

I die cut the two canvas pieces from watercolor paper. Then I taped one to my glass mat and spritzed it lightly with water. Then I inked up the largest Poinsettia from the Poinsettia Bust stamp set with Rouge and then just the edges with Velvet ink. Before stamping that down I spritzed it lightly with water. 

I repeated this with the smaller poinsettia and some greenery.  Then I watercolored around the images with Aqualicious ink. 

To finish off the canvas I splattered on some Gold Silk while it was still a bit wet. I set that aside to dry and worked on the second canvas.  Once dry I stamped 
"Joy to the World" in Jet Black ink from the Holiday Joy stamp set. 

For this canvas I first painted the damp watercolor paper with Aqualicious ink. Then I inked up with wise men image with Almond Butter ink and stamped it on the wet paper. The tree image was inked up with Milk Chocolate ink.  Next I added the sentiment with Teal Cave ink, so I knew where would be the best space to add the star. Which I stamped in Hazelnut Ink. 

I finished off this canvas with a splattering of Gold Silk as well. 

After the watercoloring was dry I folded in all the edges to give them that authentic boxy canvas look. 

Then I heated up my Glimmer Hot Foil machine and gave each of these an additional sentiment  that was hot foiled for the addition of shine to bring out the shine of the gold accent piece on the easel.  The glimmer hot foil sets I used are linked for you below. 

I glued the canvases to the easel, so they would be permanently attached. I added some gift twine transforming this easel into an ornament. The gift twine is white with a gold thread running through it. Perfect for both of my ornaments. 

I think these will be so much fun to give to my crafty friends. 

Now it is time to hop along and see what the other designers have created with Spellbinder Club Kits. I know you will find lots of different ideas as there are so many Club Kits that Spellbinders offers. Enjoy and comment along the way for a chance to win at $25 shopping spree to the Spellbinders shop.

Glimmer Snowflake Sparkle Background

I am so in love with entire Christmas release over at Spellbinders. They have some AMAMZING new things in dies and glimmer hot foil plates!  Today I am sharing one of my absolute faves!  The Snowflake Sparkle Background Glimmer Hot Foil plate. This plate hot foils an entire A2 sized card front of SNOWFLAKES, leaving an opening in the center for you to add something cute. So many possibilities with this plate. 

I wanted to make old fashioned, traditional cards right way, so that is what I am bringing you today. 

Isn't that snowflake backgrounds so beautiful, I wish you could hold these cards in your hand and turn them in the light to see all the shine of the foil! 

On both of today's cards I also used the Christmas Essential Glimmer Circles on the inside of the circle opening left by the Snowflake background plate. I love the plate with the cross stitch x's. 

The Red and Green foils I used here are both from the Shimmering Holiday Variety Pack, the 4 foils in this pack all have a special effect. Check them out right here. Like a pattern in the foil that creates a variance. 

Isn't this background the perfect spot for a die cut element. I used the Die D-Lite Reindeer set to make this guy. 

For my next card I pulled out my Tux die set for a cute Penguin to be focus of this card. 

I LOVE the snowflake background foiled in black on white!!! 

The sentiments on these cards are from the Holiday Sentiments Series 2 Glimmer Plate Set. I love layering up all the foiling in different configurations. 

I know I will be using this snowflake glimmer plate again and again. It made fast work of these cards and they turned out beautiful!  I'd love to know which is your favorite of these cards.

Yana's Glimmering Christmas Collection

By now you probably know that I love Glimmer Hot Foil.  So when Yana Smakula released her Christmas collection I was so excited to get my hands on it and play. Yana is the queen of the Glimmer Hot Foil system so I knew her line would be amazing. 

For today's cards I am using 3 products from her new line; Glimmer Winter Village, Yana's Christmas Sentiments, the Glimmer Gift Border. I also used another plate from her line that is on one of my faves, Polka Dot Strip. 

I love playing with color for Christmas cards. Changing up one color like using pink instead of red gives a different feel to these cards. I think they have a bit of a retro look to them. 

This first card uses both of the village scene plates and the snow plate to create mini scenes for each scene on the ends of this slimline card. 

The snow plate is unique in that it fits around each of the village dies . See the wonky edges, one side of this plate fits perfectly around the lodge looking building and the other side of the snow plate fits around the smaller village buildings. Genius!  

I used Magenta foil on Bubble Gum card stock and Viridian Green on Lemongrass card stock. I die cut these images with a circle die and backed them with a darker card stock, Sweet Berry and Kiwi Slice. 

For the sentiment I hot foiled Happy Holidays from Yana's Christmas sentiments, in Polished Brass foil onto Brushed Gold card stock. I am LOVING this look!  The All is Calm, All is Bright is also from Yana's Christmas Sentiments and I used the same Polished Brass foil to foil this part of the sentiment on Whip Cream card stock. I backed the brushed gold circle in Mirror Gold card stock for an eye catching focal point to this card. 

The village pieces are glued down to 9" x 4" panel that I hot foiled with the Polka Dot Strip plate and Opal foil. I popped up the sentiment circle in the center. To finish it off I tied on some Gift Wrap twine. 

For this card I used the new Glimmer Gift Border plate to hot foil a long border down the side of my slimline card front (8-3/4" x 3-3/4") in Polished Brass foil. 

I then used some Distress Ink (Mowed Lawn and Picked Raspberry) to watercolor in a few of the presents. 

Another circle sentiment for the focal point of this card, using Merry Christmas from all of us, a combination of 3 plates from Yana's Christmas Sentiments. The plate for "from" has tabs that fit into notches on the "all of us" plate. Which makes it really easy to hot foil them together, but you also have the option to foil them separately. 

I added some more twine and embellishments from the All the Things pack. 

I am in love with making Slimline cards right now and have a goal to send out all Slimline cards for Christmas this year, or mostly all.  

You can watch the making of these cards and see Yana's collection in action right here.

Spellbinders Spider Web Corners Shakers

Hey there my stamping friends!  I am so excited today to be sharing my first Halloween creation for this year! I love the fun color combinations and fun images there are to play with this time of year!  And for some reason I love spider webs and spider images. BUT NOT THE REAL THING!!! So, I was thrilled to be creating with the Spider Web corner die set that Spellbinders just released!  It's a two piece die set with a great price point!  And I can mix it with all my other Halloween products, love that! 

I decided to make a shaker card with this frame set and a coordinating tag that is a shaker too. Take a look at these awesome die set!  You can also see these projects being made in this video. 

This die set links together to make the coolest frame!  

I adhered my die cut frame and connecter pieces to a sheet of vellum with an oval die cut from the center to make the frame for the front of this shaker card. 

To make my pumpkin glow I inked it up with a rich yellow, Summer Day ink and then inked only the edges with a Rock and Roll technique, with Tangerine Fusion ink.  This pumpkin is from the Hey Boo stamp set. Had to have this set because of the cute cat and spider in it, so, I will be using this set again soon! 

Behind my shaker is an ink blended and splattered background. It's perfect for my halloween shaker elements. Which are seasonal confetti I found at the Dollar Tree. But to make it even more special I added some Silver Shavings Glass Glitter to the mix!!! 

Now let's take a look at the tag. 

I used just the connector piece to make little halloween wrapped candies. 

The shaker tag was made using the Special Day Tag die set. I use this die set a lot. It has a lot of great dies, I love this tag because I can make a frame and create a shaker tag. 

On both of these shakers I hot foiled a sentiment because I got the new Spooky Greetings set for just this thing, adding glimmer hot foil sentiments to my Halloween projects!  
So, what do you think of using this piece to make candies??? 

You can see the making of these projects in the video below.

Especially For You Glimmer Hot Foil Set

Hello there! I am back today sharing another layering Glimmer Hot Foil set, Especially For You. This set foils a flower, has a die to cut that out and a die to add a layer to this flower. This results in a beautiful layered flower and one of the layers is shining foil!  

To go with your flowers there is a leaf to hot foil and a die to cut it out. There are also 3 stand alone dies that die cut a small branch of leaves and the other two pieces to create another smaller flower to accent your larger hot foiled and layered flower.  And besides the cute flowers in this set there is a large sentiment, FOR YOU, that you hot foil. To build on that sentiment there are 4 supporting sentiments you can foil to go with it; Heartfelt Thoughts, I will do anything, On your birthday, and Especially.  

The Glimmer Hot Foil plates are shown in the tan and the dies are shown in the gray. 

I used SO many colors of foil. I wanted a colored card stock and coordinating foil for each of the flowers on this card. I think it is so cute to dress up the letters on this sentiment with the layered flowers and leaves. 

Take a look at the edge of this card. I created this tone on tone look using Opal Foil and the Gilded Frames Hot Foil plate set. 

I am in LOVE with that Opal Foil, it is a clear foil that leaves behind an opal or pearlized finish. 

You can see this card being made right here. 

If you can not see the video above you can view it on YouTube right here. 

 

This card is part two of my layering Glimmer Hot Foil videos. Below you can see the card I made with another layering Glimmer Hot Foil set, Glimmered Botanicals. It's an amazing set that makes the most stunning flowers!

 

If you did not catch the video for the Glimmered Botanical card it is right here. 

Thank you so much for watching. If you have any questions about Glimmer Hot Foil, do not hesitate to ask. And, I have a lot more Glimmer Hot Foiling videos you might find helpful. You can check them out right here.

Glimmered Botanical Slimline Card

I have a new favorite Glimmer Hot Foil plate set!!!!! It is the Glimmered Botanical set. This set not only has glimmer hot foil plates in it, but it has die to cut out the florals and other dies that create layering pieces for those florals. The result is stunning multi-layered flowers. You have to see how it works, that's why I have a video of the making of this card. 

See how stunning these flowers are with layers of card stock and foil!  Let me break down how this works. 

Here are 3 pieces from this set, used to make the largest flower.  Starting with the plate at the top of this picture.  This is a glimmer plate. Hot foil this piece. On my card I hot foiled this with Magenta Foil on Watermelon Fusion card stock.  Then I used the die, the middle piece in this picture to die cut that out.  When die cuts the flower there will still be card stock showing around the hot foiled area.  This gives it more of a layered look. Set this aside and die cut the piece at the bottom of this picture to layer over the first piece. I die cut mine from Bubble Gum card stock. This creates the middle layer, adding more detail to the flower. Now let's talk about the center of the flower.

The top plate in this photo is the glimmer plate. You can die cut out this glimmered piece from either of the dies shown below it. The one on the left creates the center for the large flower I discussed above. The die on the right die cuts half of the glimmer plate, creating the center for the medium flower. Show in the photo below in orange and blue. 

Here are the dies and plate used to make the medium flower. 

The top piece is the glimmer hot foil plate. I used Tangerine Foil and Tangerine Fusion card stock to make my medium flower. Then I die cut it using the die shown in the center of this picture.  The bottom die was die cut from Citrus Cooler card stock and mounted over the top of the glimmered flower. Then the center piece was added (using the center piece shown above with the half die) with a foam square to finish off the medium flower. 

There is also a glimmer plate and die to make the small flower. And for the leaves there is one glimmer plate and two dies. One die cuts out the entire glimmered leaf the other cuts out a smaller portion making a smaller leaf. This gives you two different sizes leaves to create your floral arrangement. 

Now let's chat about the background on this card!!! If you look closely you can see a subtle shine of dots. I used Opal foil and the Scattered Dots glimmer hot foil plate to create this.  The Opal foil is clear with a pearlized finish. It's the coolest foil!  Because it is clear, the color of the card stock shows through and the pattern of the plate is now a pearlized look. I also used the Opal foil to foil my sentiment on black card stock!  You can see it in action in the video below where I show you how I made this card using the Glimmered Botanical set. 

If you like the layered glimmer hot foil look come back again tomorrow. I am sharing the Especially For You Glimmer Plate set which does the same thing, on a smaller scale. 

Below I have listed and linked all the things I used to make this card.

Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil kit of the Month

I can't put it down!  I am in love with the Glimmer Hot Foil Kit of the month for August! It's such a fun crafty themed plate set, and is named Have a Crafty Day!  This month's kit comes with my favorite foil color, Aura!  

With this month's kit you can make the cutest cards for all your crafty friends. It included a background plate and 3 sentiments too!  There are also add ons that coordinate with this plate set; an additional Hot Foil plate set called Crafty Sentiments and a Stamp and Die set called Craft Happy.  

Let's take a look at the six cards. 

For all of the cards I used Gel Press prints that I had on hand, I have SO many that is feels so productive to use them up. Do you have a stash of background that you've made, waiting to be used? 

Card One

It's a shaker card, you know they are my favorite!  I use the background plate to foil over a gel press print in Aura Foil creating a stunning background for my sequins and shrinky dinks to glide across. 

I did say shrinky dinks!  I used the Craft Happy stamp and die set to create a paint brush, scissors and tube of pain to add a surprise to my shaker card. My friend Steph Williams has a few shaker cards that she made with shrink images and I have been dying to give it a go for so long now. I have made tons of shrink images but not for a shaker card and I am IN LOVE with it! 

The Have a Crafty Birthday sentiment is from the GOM Kit. 

Card Two 

Look at this background, made using a print that my friend Cassie Trask sent me in a background swap we did. It's pretty yummy, thanks Cassie! So, I thought it fitting that this card would have the "Crafty Friend" sentiment on it!  "Crafty Friend" is from the Crafty Sentiment plate set. 

I used image from the Craft Happy stamp set to embellish this card, I LOVE that ruler image. I colored all my images, including the shrink plastic with Copic Markers. 

The foil I used on this card is called Prism. The Aura and Prism foil are very much a like, they are both iridescent, the difference is that Aura has a gold tone and Prism has a silver tone. 

Card Three

For this background strip on this card I used Opal foil. This foil is unlike any of the others. It is clear with an iridescent pearl finish!  So, what ever color of card stock you foil it on the color of the card stock will show through and the images will be pearlized!  It's magical, trust me! 

The sentiment is another from the GOM kit, I foiled it using Magenta foil. This handmade for you sentiment would be great foiled on the back of every card I make, right?! 

And I have to say the dauber image, perfect! I just think it is so cute. 

Card Four

Again, I used Prism foil on this card, for the background and for the sentiment. I think this is my favorite of the sentiments from the GOM Kit!  I die cut the sentiment using the Essentials Circle die set. It die cuts circles as well as the intricate dotted circle. It is the only circle die set I used to make these cards. I also used it to make the frame around the sentiment on card five, below.

Card Five

For this card I hot foiled the sentiment in two colors of foil because in the plate sets the script sentiment and the typed sentiment are separate plates, so you can have fun with it! I used Aura and Magenta foils on this light orange card stock.   Let's Get Crafty is from the Crafty Sentiments Plate Set. 

Card Six

Another shaker card with shrinky dinks!  I was not sure the roll of twine would be easily recognizable in the shrunk down form. So the idea came to me to repeat the shrink images on the front of the card.  

For my main shaker element I used Spakle Cuts, because a crafter who gets this card is going to appreciate the shrink image, glitter, foiling, a gel press background, a shaker, Copic colored images and all the love that went into this card. 

Take a close look at the sentiment on this card, from the Crafty Sentiments plate set, I used Rainbow Foil!!! Another fave of mine.

Spellbinders Large Die of the Month - August 2020

Hello my crafty friends. Can you believe it is August 1st?  The exciting thing about the first is that is when the new Club Kits from Spellbinders are revealed! 

I love sharing the Large Die of the month with you. What I love about getting this die of the month is that is challenges me creatively.  I end up making things I never thought of making because I am getting something new a different every month. 

This month's die set creates a 3D project! It is the 3D Still Life Easel and Canvas die set. You get dies to make a 3D standing easel from card stock!  And a canvas!  It is so crazy cute! 

Here is a look at the Easel and Canvas that I made. 

This is just so cute and not hard to make either. This die set also comes with the little accent pieces like the paint palette and paint brush!  Take a quick look at the entire 12 piece die set. 

Don't be intimidated by all the pieces, in the video below I show you how to easily put this easel and canvas together! And look at all the fun extra dies you get to help you create an artsy look.

After making my first Easel and Canvas I wanted to think outside the box and see what else I could create with the dies from this set. 

I am a card maker, so I wanted to incorporate elements of this set into a card. 

For this slimline card I used the canvas to make mini shadow boxes. It's just the canvas flipped over. And three of these fit perfectly on my slimline card. This slimline card measures 9" x 8" and is scored at 4".  This size fits perfectly in the business sized envelopes I purchased, at the Dollar Tree! 

For my background I used a Gel Press Print from my stash. If you are not familiar with Gel Press Printing, you can check out my videos making prints right HERE. I use my Glimmer Hot Foil machine and the More Sentiments Plate set to create the sentiment for this card.  If you'd like to check out more Glimmer Hot Foil videos I have a bunch right HERE. 

To see this die set in action and how to put together this easel and canvas check out my video below, it is easier than you think!

The Happy Place Project Kit Inspiration

Welcome back my stamping friends. Today I am over on the Spellbinders Blog and YouTube channel sharing projects I made with the newest release from FSJ, the Happy Place Collection. They have new summer themed stamp sets, die sets and stencils. You can also get a Happy Place project kit that comes with stamps, dies and card kits for a great price. 

I made 4 projects with these products to help inspire you. So when you've completed your kit projects you have more ideas with your stamps and dies. 

Here's a look at the 3 cards I made. I had so much fun with the background for these cards with Liquid Colors. And just look at these fun images. All the things we love to do in the summer; swim, camp and go to the fair! 

This card features the stamp set, Enjoy the Ride. I was going for a night time scene at the fair with a fireworks shaker in the background. 

Next up is the Summer Build-a-Scene stamp set. This is a great stamp set full of fun images for a camping scene, but this stamp set is only $8.95!  I made another night time scene with a fun galaxy background. And I just love the ant image for added detail!  You seriously will not believe all the images that you get in this set for such a great price, I am impressed!  

The sentiment for this card is another small or ATS size stamp set, any yet it has so many images in it!  It is the Share Your Smile stamp set, 10 images in the set for just $8.95!  I love that FSJ makes these ATS (Artist Trading Stamp) size sets and packs so many images into them for such a great value. 

This card was so much fun to make!!! It is a gel card, there is a pouch of gel behind the swimmers giving it the look of real water. You'll have to watch the video to see it!  I use the Make A Splash stamp set and Kaleidoscope background stamp for this card. 

I had so much fun with the gel in this card I made a gift bag with a gel insert too, but with a little twist on it! 

This gift bag has a gel insert and in that gel a put a few drops of Liquid Color, so the recipient can move the color around in the gel as they press on the gel. It a kind of interactive element. 

For the background on this card I use the new Sunny Day Stencil on the front of this Card Carrier die cut bag. The pool die cut, umbrella, and the foliage I used on these two projects is a new die set, Pool with a View. I am in love with it. The edge of the pool die also embossing lines into, making it have the look of tiles. 

This is such a fun new collection of products. There is one more die set to this collection that I did not share with you here today that you can use to make a sand castle, a castle. You die cut shapes and build what you want with it, so cool.  You can see the Happy Place die set right here.  

If you want more detailed instructions on each of the projects I have all of that for you over on the Spellbinders blog. 

And you can see me make all of the projects in the video below, over on the Spellbinders YouTube channel. 

 

Below I have listed and linked all the products I used to make these projects. If you have any questions feel free to leave a comment below. I love chatting with you!

Spellbinders Stylish Script Collection

Hey there my crafty friends. Today I am sharing some cool new Glimmer Hot Foil plates by Spellbinders, the Stylish Script Collection. I love the Glimmer Hot Foil system and was excited about these large sentiment plates. There are 4 sets in this new collection. Two of the set are just one sentiment and come with a very reasonable price point. The other two sets are sets of two sentiments and again, very reasonably priced. Which I love, because then I have funds to purchase other fun things, right!  

I am sharing the Beautiful Ride, More Than Chocolate and the Thank you and Happy Birthday plate sets. 

For these cards I tried Hot Foiling onto specialty papers, like Silver card stock and Printed paper. And it worked great on both. 

For the More Than Chocolate plate I immediately envisioned this slimline card!  It was a lot of fun to make and the slimline size was just perfect for a large chocolate bar! The finished card size is 9" x 8" scored at 4".  The rectangles of chocolate are 1-3/4" x 1-1/4".  The sentiment is hot foiled onto silver paper to make it look like the wrapper. I used Copper Foil to hot foil the sentiment onto the silver paper. I was not sure how hot foiling would take to this slick paper, but it turned out amazing. 

I really wanted to use the Espresso Bean hot foil, but realized I did not have it when I thought I did, but this Copper Foil did the trick!  

I also used the Thank you and Happy Birthday Stylish Script plates for the inside of my cards. Since this slimline card was on Cocoa Powder paper I felt it needed a liner on the inside and that is where I Hot Foiled  Happy Birthday in silver foil. 

Up next is the card I created with the Beautiful Ride plate. 

I decided to make another yummy card with some Frappuccinos!  I used the shaving cream technique to create these yummy cool beverages. Which I show you how to do in the video below. 

The sentiment was hot foiled on to printed paper, which I thought could be too thin to foil on, but it did great!  Again, I used the Copper foil and I just love the color of this foil!  

For the inside of this card I used Skybright foil to add Thank you to the inside panel.  

I know I will be using the Thank You and Happy Birthday Plates a lot. The script of these new plates is so versatile. It can be used on an elegant card or creations that are more simple. And watch for some holiday plates to join this collection very soon!  

You can see these cards in the making in the video below. 

I have listed and linked all the supplies used below.

July 2020 Large Die of the month from Spellbinders

Hello there my crafty friends!  Today I am sharing the Large Die set of the month from Spellbinders, it is called How Does Your Garden Grow Alphabet. 

This is a complete alphabet die set with some foliage dies to accent the letters. 

The letters are tall and thin, but not too thin. The foliage pieces are designed to be added to the top of the letters. Let's take a look at my cards so you can see what I mean. 

For my first card I created a slimline card that says "Congratulations". This is a long word, but arranging the letters in rows of three letters each makes for a fun modern look. 

I die cut these letters from some Brushed Silver card stock. The stems might appear white in the photos but is actually Tin Pail card stock, a very light gray.  The  buds on each flower are die cut from Peaches and Cream card stock. Which is the same color I used to do ink blending on the background of this card. 

On each petal I painted some Sparkle Silk for shimmer and then added some glaze over the top so they would pop and have some shine. 

Since I made a long word on the first card I wanted to make a shorter word on the next card. 

This is an A2 sized card, 5-1/2" x 4-1/4". This may give you a better ideas of the scale of these letter dies. The approximate size of the letter dies are 3/4" x 1-3/4".  This makes them great for card making, perfect for scrapbooking and even fun to use in your planner projects. 

I used all of the same products I used on the first card to make this one. I love trying to make something different with all the same supplies still out. The hearts on both of the card were made using an 8-1/2" x 11" stencil called Heart Wall. I love that I can use it on my new favorite card, Slimlines!  

On this card I did set the flowers slightly to the side of the letters for a little different look.  

Overall this die set of the month is AMAZING, such a great value for the amount you pay for the Large Die of the Month kit. Which is only $27.50 You can see all the Club Kits Spellbinders has to offer right HERE. 

You can see these dies in action in my video below. If you are new to my YouTube channel, you can visit it HERE. I have 2-3 new videos a week. If you subscribe and ring the bell next to the subscribe button, YouTube will let you know when my next video comes out.

Spellbinders June Club Kit Blog Hop

Welcome to the June 2020 Spellbinders Club Kit Blog Hop. 

This hop is to celebrate all the Club Kit's Spellbinders has to offer. There are so many and different kits, die cutting, card making, glimmer hot foiling, really there is something for everyone! This hop is FULL of great ideas to inspire you with the June Kits. You should have arrived here from Nichol Spohr's blog, weren't her cards just amazing!  

For my card I am focusing on the Large Die of the month kit, Geometrical Floral Frames.  I am combining my two loves for today's card; shaker cards and slimline cards!  

This slimline card measures 9" x 4-1/4". This is the perfect size card to fit in the business envelopes that I purchased at the Dollar Tree. Be sure to check the size of business envelopes that you have so that you make your Slimline card to fit in it. 

It was easy to stencil the background for this card using an 8-1/2" x 11" stencil, Polka Dot Wall, from the Spellbinders shop.  It easily covered the front of this slimline card!  

Once the background was stenciled on I cut a window in this card to make it a shaker card. I used the largest from from the Geometrical Floral Frames die set, the June 2020 Large Die of the Month set.  This die not only cuts the opening, but also a super thin frame that is just yummy! I die cut my super thin frame from Silver Mirror card stock, it's gorgeous!

Then I set to work, die cutting out all the florals to go around my frame. 

I find floral arranging, with die cuts, to be so much fun. I love the little detail of the buds on the end of the thin branches. Which I covered with Journey Glaze for a pop of shine, as well as the centers of each of the flowers. 

You can see the making of this card in the video below. Feel free to subscribe to my YouTube channel if you'd you like, I have 2-3 new videos a week.

Glimmer Hot Foil Rainbow + Twinkle Lights Plate

You know I love my Glimmer Hot Foil system and making things that shine with it!  When Spellbinders announced they would have a Rainbow Hot Foil, I was giddy!  I do love all things rainbow!!! 

So, today I am playing with the Rainbow Hot Foil and the Twinkle Lights Glimmer Background plate. In the video below I will show you how to easily make and entire A2 sized background with this plate on colored card stock. 

And turn them into these fun unicorn themed projects, a card and matching gift bag. 

Let's take a closer look at the bag. 

This Twinkle Lights background in rainbow just needed a unicorn to go with it. So, I pulled out one of my favorite stamp sets from Fun Stampers Journey, Magical Unicorn for these projects.  

I used Pool Play card stock to glimmer hot foil on my rainbow background. And the rainbow shows up beautifully on colored card stock. I tried it on several different colors of card stock and all looked great with the rainbow foil! 

I colored all my images in with Copic Markers. I had so much fun making the rainbow mane!  

To add a bit more shine to this card I used Journey Glaze to top off the treats, planet, gem, heart, hooves and horn.  It was the added little something that this card needed to be extra special. 

I really wanted to sue another of rainbow hot foiled backgrounds I made so I decided to make a matching gift bag to go with this card. 

The bag was made using the Card Carrier die set, currently on SALE at the Spellbinders shop! It fits 3-4 A2 sized cards. And also makes a great little gift bag for small gifts. 

For this project I die cut hearts from the front panel of the bag and glued one of my hot foiled backgrounds behind it so the twinkle lights would show through the cut outs. 

And what do you think of my brown unicorn?  I would love to know what you think!   

You can see the making of today's projects in the video below.

Spellbinders Large Die of the Month June 2020

Today we get to take a look at the all new Large Die of the Month kit by Spellbinders. The Geometric Floral Frame die set was released just today. This set has two abstract geometric frames and 6 dies that cut floral images.  I think it is such a pretty set. 

Since there are two large frames in this set, I made two cards. It is so much fun to arrange flowers, when they are paper that is!  

You can watch the making of these cards in the video below. 

If you are new to my YouTube channel you can subscribe, I have new videos every week. 

 

Now let's take a closer look at each of the cards. 

This card features the largest of the two frames in the die set, it is such a fun shape. I love that it is different than the standard shapes I normally use. 

I really wanted to use up some of the hundreds of backgrounds I have made and are anxiously waiting for me to choose them and use them on a project! I thought this die set would be lots of fun to use with some of these backgrounds. Several of the backgrounds were made using the Gel Press. I used the prints to die cut the floral pieces and even the center of my geometric shape. 

You can get a better look at the prints on the leaves and flowers in this close up pic. 

Here is the second card: 

For this card I wanted to use silver for the frame and accents. I love how it turned out. 

Look at the die cuts close up, the prints are so cool. It's little details like this that make a card special. 

Below I have linked the supplies I used to make these cards.

Spellbinders May Club Kit Blog Hop

Welcome to my blog stamping friends! 

I hope you are enjoying the Spellbinders May Club Kit Blog Hop!  What a fun and talented group of creators I get to collaborate with today!  You may have arrived here from my friend, Jill Hillard's blog, glad you made it! 

I am excited to share the Large Die of the month for May with you today. Spellbinders has several club kits that you can subscribe to; dies, stamps, glimmer hot foil, card kits.  You should check out all the offerings, I think they are priced great!  See your Club Kit choices HERE. 

The Large Die of the month for May is the Kaleidoscope Card Creator, a set of 11 dies.  You layer the 3 corner pieces and the 3 connector pieces to create a frame on your card.  It's such a cool look.  I have used this die set before to create three different looks, check those cards out HERE if you missed them.  But today I really wanted to see if I could make a Slimline card with this die set, as Slimline cards are my obsession right now. 

So, let's take a look at how my slimline card turned out. 

I was thrilled that I was able to make my current fave, a Slimline card with this beautiful die set. 

Here's a break down of what you need to create this card. 

This slimline card measures 9" x 8" scored at 4".  

You will need 4 of the corner pieces and 8 of the square connector pieces. 

If you are not familiar with this die set there are 3 dies that you use to cut 3 pieces that layer to make one corner.  There are also 3 dies that cut and layer to make a square connector piece.  Of course you do not have to layer them, but I did for this card. The dimension that this look creates is stunning. 

Let's take a closer look. 

For the sentiment on this card I brought out my Glimmer Hot Foil machine, the Thank You Combo Glimmer Hot Foil set, and Aura foil.  I have to tell you Aura is my favorite foil to use. It really goes with everything. And it is iridescent, you can see a rainbow of colors when you turn it in the light.

Also, if you have some pearls laying around that you have not used in a while, they are the perfect match for this die set! The center of these flowers are asking for a pearl!  

I have some tips and tricks for you on this die set and making this card in the video below, check it out and subscribe to my YouTube Channel if you have not had a chance to do so. I have new videos all the time, if you don't want to miss them, ring the bell and YouTube will let you know when I post another crafty video.
