Hello Crafty Friends, I created another card feathering the Small Die Club & 3D embossing Folder Club of April 2024. I used the 3D embossing folder (3D EOM of April 2024) on white cardstock and die-cut the floss from each color. Additionally, I attached a die-cut thread to the card. The thread cut is from
Hello-hello! I'm back to share several card ideas for our Moms (for Mother's Day or just because, plus there's one Birthday card in there, as well) featuring the Mirrored Arch Collection by Spellbinders. This is a fantastic collection with a little bit of everything for everyone - an embossing folder, a die set, and a
Happy Friday friends! Today I'm sharing my fun card featuring Spellbinders March Stitching Die of the Month called Stitched Read & Sip! If you've ever thought about trying a stitching die, this is a good one to try. It has minimal stitching and would also be beautiful without any stitching! All of Spellbinders monthly clubs, including the Stitching Dies of the Month have a window of time to enroll and receive that month's featured product. This month's "window" is March 6-27. The only time it might not be available is if the item has sold out for the month. Also, you can cancel at any time. Check out all of the specific details here. I die cut the Stitched Read & Sip from purple, green, yellow, and neutral cardstocks. All available cardstocks are linked in the list below. I added a bit of shading to the cup and flowers with coordinating ink. Then I used purple and green DMC embroidery floss for the quick stitching. The thread on the book is one that I had in my stash that I saved years ago when I used to do counted cross-stitch a lot. To adhere the stitched layers to the base layer, I just put glue on the back of the stitching and aligned it with the base piece. It gives instant dimension! I embossed a white cardstock panel with the Checkered Scallops embossing folder. This is the March Embossing Folder of the Month. I embossed all but about ¾" of the bottom edge of the panel. Then I glued it to an A2 card base. I adhered the Stitched Read & Sip elements to the card. I added a sentiment from the Just Wanted to Say Glimmer set that I foiled with Fuchsia Flower Glimmer Foil. For easy foiling I used Spellbinders Glimmer Specialty cardstock. I hope I've inspired you today to try these fabulous stitching dies. It's really fun and makes a very special and unique card to give. Thank you for stopping by! Thank you for shopping with my affiliate links (never any additional cost to you)!

Hello, crafty friends! Dilay here from JustCallMeDee.com, and I am excited to be returning for another guest post on the Spellbinders blog! Today, I am sharing a few projects using the new Sealed For Spring Collection wax seals. I am showcasing three of the four new wax seals, combined with a gorgeous selection of hot foil plates, coordinating stencils, and dies. Wax seals are a beautiful way to add a bit of elegance to any project – and they are super easy to create! I hope you like what I came up with and are inspired to try them out for yourself! Let’s get started! Tip: Create the wax seal on a piece of scrap paper first (in case something goes wrong) then transfer it to your project once it has cooled down! Have A Nice Day For the first card, I foiled a piece of white cardstock with matte gold foil using the Geometric Diamond Background hot foil plate. Although this foil plate can be used with the coordinating stencils to add color, I went with a subtle gradient wash to the top left corner. I then die-cut the Sealed Twine die in gold mirror cardstock, Sealed Squiggles, and Sealed Leaf Sprigs in shades of teal, light pink, and mirror gold cardstock. I splattered the die cuts with gold watercolor paint as an extra touch, assembled them, and then adhered it over the top of the foiled panel. To finish, I used teal wax and the new Have a Nice Day seal as the focal point of the bouquet. Hugs For this card, I embossed a piece of white cardstock with the Corrugated 3D Embossing folder then adhered it onto an A2-sized, top-folding card base. I then foiled the Geometric Optical Background hot foil plate onto a white cardstock panel and die-cut it with a basic circle die then adhered it to the panel with foam tape. I die-cut more of the Sealed Leaf Sprigs dies and a few simple flowers then arranged and adhered them onto the left side of the foiled circle, securing them using gold wax and the new Scattered Flowers Seal. I added a few gold die cuts using the Sealed Confetti Die and adhered them to the center of the flower arrangement. To finish, I die-cut the Hugs sentiment from the Simply Perfect Mix and Match Sentiments die set and adhered it to the foiled circle. Tip: To add even more elegance to the seals, you can add some gold detail using the gold DecoColor marker – just as I did with these projects! Just Because For the final card, I created a similar design to the first one, but this time used coordinating stencils in addition to the Geometric Optical Background hot foil plate (with pink Foil for a tone-on-tone look). Next, I cut a piece of vellum to create a belly band, then die-cut each of the Sealed Squiggles and Leaf Sprigs dies in shades of teal, white, and gold, then assembled and adhered them to the left side of the panel. I then wrapped a bit of gold thread around the panel and secured the back before mounting it onto an A2-sized, top-folding card base. Lastly, I added a peachy pink and gold wax seal using the new Gift Bow Seal and added a foiled Just Because from the Sealed Glimmer Sentiments foil set right under it. I hope that you enjoyed my trio of cards! Be sure to check out the entire Sealed for Spring Collection, as well as visit my blog for more project ideas using wax seals, foil plates, and much more!

Hello there, today I have a card to share using the Spellbinders November 2023 Large Die of the Month Club Kit. The kit this month is called Towering Blooms. There are flowers, stems, leaves, a plant pot and sentiments in the kit which can be used in lots of different ways. PLEASE NOTE: This post contains affiliate links. Please see below for my full disclosure. I started off my card by die cutting the leaves and stems from the Spellbinders November 2023 Large Die of the Month Club Kit from Spellbinders Rainforest Cardstock. I added ink blending to them with Altenew Green Valley Crisp Dye Inks. I then die cut the flowers from Spellbinders Purple Mist and Lilac Blossom Cardstock. I added ink blending to them using Altenew Enchanted Garden Crisp Dye Inks. The flowers centres were cut from Spellbinders Chamomile and Beeswax Cardstock and I added ink blending with Altenew Golden Sunset Fresh Dye Inks. I assembled the flowers using Bearly Art Glue. I took a US A2 sized white card base and added score lines to the front panel using a score board and bone folder (sadly these can't be seen in the photos but in real-life, they do add something extra to the card). I adhered the leaves on top with Bearly Art Glue and the flowers with thin foam tape. I die cut the 'happy birthday' from the Spellbinders Popular Sentiments Etched Dies. I cut the shadow piece twice from white cardstock and layered them up with Bearly Art Glue. The words were cut from Spellbinders Royal Amethyst Cardstock. I adhered them together and then onto the card. SPELLBINDERS CLUB KITS I hope that you will check out the Spellbinders Club Kits.

Spellbinders NEW Sealed Collection – Wax Seals! Hello Crafty Friends! Today I am sharing a few unique cards using a new WAX SEAL KIT FROM THE SEALED BY SPELLBINDERS COLLECTION from the Spellb…
Welcome to the weekend friends! I’m excited to be back today to share a couple of projects made with the new Sealed For Summer Collection from Spellbinders. (Check out the entire June release here…so much good stuff!) This collection contains beautiful Glimmer Plates, gorgeous dies, stunning embossing folders, fun new wax seal stamps, and a ton of new wax bead colors too! I used a bunch of the products from the collection to create three pretty floral cards for different occasions. But first, here's a quick look at all of the new wax colors stamped with one of my favorite new wax seal stamps from the Sealed For Summer Wax Seal Set 1. I LOVE the new Pink Damask and Driftwood colors the most I think, but those three beautiful purples match the Spellbinders cardstock really well too! SUMMERTIME FLORAL LOVE CARD Before I get to those wax seals though, let's start with this pretty foiled love card! The new Glimmer Bouquet Plate & Die Set was so gorgeous, I picked this up first to foil onto white cardstock using Gold Hot Foil, then colored with my Copic markers. I also foiled a matching sentiment using the Must Have Glimmer Sentiments Set. To create the background, I trimmed a piece of Waterfall Cardstock to 4 x 5.25, embossed it with the Mandala Blooms 3D Embossing Folder, and adhered it to a top-folding A2-sized white card base. Then I cut white cardstock using one of the Essential Modern Ovals Dies and splatted some diluted Salvaged Patina Distress Ink over it before adding it on top with foam adhesive. To finish off the card, I popped the bouquet and sentiment up on top of the card front with more foam adhesive. WAX SEAL SYMPATHY CARD Next, I wanted to try out one of my new wax seal stamps, so I marbled the Pastel Lilac and Enchanted Wax Beads together, stamped it with the For You wax seal stamp from the Sealed For Summer Wax Seal Set 1, and added silver metallic marker just to the sentiment once hardened. I cut Mirror Silver, Rainforest, and Purple Mist Cardstock using the Sealed Squiggles and Sealed Flowers Die Set to create the little bouquet behind the seal. To assemble, I trimmed a piece of Royal Amethyst Cardstock to 4 x 5.25, embossed it with the Floral & Vine 3D Embsossing Folder, matted it with Mirror Silver Cardstock, and added it to a top-folding A2-sized white card base with tape runner. Then I cut a piece of white cardstock using one of the dies from the Essential Modern Ovals Die Set, blended Peacock Feathers and Salvaged Patina Distress Ink up from the bottom, added it to the card front, and trimmed off any overhanging pieces. Once the wax seal and mini bouquet were adhered, I added a secondary sentiment beneath the wax seal foiled in Lavender Petal Hot Foil using the Hexi Gems Sentiments Glimmer Plate Set. SWEET FLORAL HI CARD Lastly, I wanted to make a simple and sweet floral card with the new Oval Floral Wax Seal Stamp from the Sealed for Summer Wax Seal Set 1. This time I melted just Coral Wax Beads for the seal, and applied gold metallic marker over the entire pressed design. I cut Sage, Peach Sorbet, and Mirror Gold Cardstock with the Sealed Squiggles and Sealed Blooms Die Sets to create the little bouquet behind the seal. Latte Cardstock was embossed with the Mandala Blooms Embossing Folder and I cut two sizes of ovals from Alabaster and Mirror Gold Cardstock using the Essential Modern Ovals Die Set before splattering some gold paint onto the smaller oval. Once the card had been assembled, I added a simple hi foiled with Gold Hot Foil using the Glimmer Alphabet Plate Set and applied inks to color the inside using the coordinating stencil. I love how this card turned out! I hope you enjoyed these pretty summer floral card projects and thanks so much for stopping by today.

Hello crafters! It's been a while! I went on a much-needed vacation for 2 weeks and I've just returned and while I did plan to edit this video and some other videos while I was vacationing I'm guilty to admit that I didn't. I've not been on a proper vacation in a very long time
Hello again friends! I'm excited to share a few projects today made with the brand new Fresh Picked Collection from Spellbinders (you can check out the rest of the January release here...there is a ton of fun stuff in this release!) This collection is full of fun and kinda funky florals that you can use to fill an entire cardfront or just as a focal point as well as some cute sentiments and a great basic embossing folder. I created three cards using most of the products in the collection, and can't wait to make more! BUTTERCUP SYMPATHY CARD I loved the dainty flowers in the Fresh Picked Buttercups Die Set, so I picked this one up first to work with. I knew I was making a sympathy card, so I chose some muted, but pretty shades of cardstocks to cut all of my flower branches out of - Velvet Rose, Peach Sorbet, and Sage Cardstock. After cutting, I added some shading with coordinating Distress Inks and assembled everything with liquid glue. For the background, I embossed a piece of Barely Peach Cardstock with the new Flowers & Foliage 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to a top-folding A2-sized white card base. Then I arranged all of the branches and popped them up on top of the card front with foam adhesive. To finish off the card, I foiled a sentiment from the You Are Everything Sentiments BetterPress Plate Set in gold and added some Gold Mix Gems. ANEMONE THANK YOU CARD Although all of the main die sets in the collection can be used to create full card fronts, you can also take just a stem or two and use it as a focal point on your card. Here I cut two of the floral stems from the Fresh Picked Anemone Die Set out of Rainforest, Purple Mist, Lilac Blossom, Royal Amethyst, and Plum Cardstocks and assembled them with liquid glue. I placed them in the center of the card front for a bold and pretty focal point. To create the background, I blended Peacock Feathers and Salvaged Patina Distress Ink over two-thirds of a piece of white cardstock and then embossed it with the Geo Screen Embossing Folder. After adhering the anemones to the card with foam adhesive, I popped a sentiment cut out of Mirror Silver Cardstock using the Fresh Picked Sentiments Die Set right on top with more foam adhesive. To finish off the card, I added a few Crystal Mix Gems. DAFFODIL HELLO CARD Lastly, I love daffodils and really love the funky look of the flowers in the Fresh Picked Daffodils Die Set! I cut mine out of Fern, white, Sunkissed, and Persimmon Cardstocks, assembling them with liquid glue. A bold sentiment from the Fresh Picked Sentiments Die Set was cut out of Mirror Gold Cardstock as well. To assemble the card, I embossed a piece of Cosmic Sky Cardstock with the new Columns Embossing Folder before adhering it to a top-folding A2-sized white card base with tape runner. Then I popped the flowers up on top of the card front and added the bold sentiment in the lower corner. To complete the card, I foiled a secondary greeting in gold using the Mini Sincere Sentiments Glimmer Plate Set, cut it into a small strip, and added it beneath my hi. If you're interested in even more florals, then you'll want to check out the new From The Garden Collection by Wendy Vecchi! Here are peeks at three cards I made using the new Garden Party Stamp Stencil & Die Set, Vintage Florals Die Set, Heartfelt Thanks & Scallops Die Set, and Flowers & Foliage 3D Embossing Folder. You can find additional details for these cards over on the Spellbinders blog! I hope you enjoyed these bold floral card projects and thanks so much for stopping by today.

Hello there! This is Lisa from My Card Trip and I am thrilled to be a guest here on the Spellbinders blog. Today I am sharing some inspiration with the newly released Fresh Picked Collection. This is such a beautiful collection – modern, contemporary floral and berry designs along with a super sentiment set and a stylish versatile embossing folder. I live in the southern part of England and this collection makes me want to skip the next few grey months and dive straight into Spring and Summer. So, let’s get started with my cards! Hello Whenever I see a leaf die, I am always tempted to make a wreath! So today I thought I would make a wreath with lots of foliage and some berries interspersed amongst all the greenery. The set I am working with for this card is Fresh Picked Berries Etched Dies. I started by picking out three green cardstocks for my foliage – Peridot, Rainforest and Fern Color Essentials Cardstock. I cut the leaf die three times from each and then I thought that it would be good to break up the green foliage a little bit, so I also die cut the leaf die three times from 80lb white card. For the berries, I used two different color palettes. The purple berries were die cut from Lilac Blossom Color Essentials Cardstock and Royal Amethyst Color Essentials Cardstock. The pink berries were die cut from Fruit Punch Color Essentials Cardstock and a deeper pink cardstock from my stash. The little berry toppers were just cut from 80lb white. I assembled them using Bearly Art Glue and set everything to one side. To help me with the placement of all my elements, I took an Everlasting Circle Etched Die, and using a pencil I drew a very faint line around the circle onto some white card. I erased as much of it as I could without losing it altogether! This now serves as a guideline for my foliage placement. I adhered each die cut using a small bit of adhesive on the lower stem section and I worked in batches of Peridot, Rainforest, Fern and white each time. So, I knew that these four die cuts would need to take up about a third of the wreath. I then adhered the berries randomly around the wreath amongst the leaves. I took the Fresh Picked Sentiments Etched Dies and die cut “Hello” three times from a white card. I adhered them together in a little stack and added some thin foam tape in the center section at the back (so that the wreath would be level when placed down). To finish I added some glossy white pearls for embellishment. Hi My next card features the beautiful Fresh Picked Buttercups Etched Dies. This might be my favourite set but it’s hard to choose! The Fresh Picked Collection sets have been designed so that you can create a full A2 panel with the dies. They kind of fit together like a jigsaw puzzle so you do have the option to create with them in this way. This is really helpful if you struggle with design or just simply want to make a quick card. However, I thought I would use them in a spray design today. So, I began by die cutting all my pieces from Rainforest Color Essentials Cardstock, Peridot Color Essentials Cardstock and Beeswax Color Essentials Cardstock. I took a small round-headed blending brush and blended Fossilized Amber Distress Ink into the centers of the buttercups, and also onto the bottom of the unopened buttercup buds. Next, I die-cut the centers from gold glitter cardstock and adhered them to the middle of the flowers with Bearly Art Glue. I now had all my elements ready to place, so I played around with my design until I was happy with how the spray looked and I took a photo. To get my leaves exactly where I wanted them, and to fill a few gaps, I did trim out a couple of single leaves from the larger foliage pieces. For my background, I ran a panel of Glacier Cardstock Essentials Cardstock through my Platinum 6 Die Cutting Machine with the Columns Embossing Folder. This was trimmed down a little and adhered onto a top folding A2 white notecard. This folder works really well for so many designs. I also think it would be a great folder for masculine cards. To give the flowers some dimension (and room for me to tuck the leaves behind), I added some thin foam tape onto the back of the three central flowers. I adhered them down and then added my foliage around them, just using tiny dabs of glue on the ends of the stems to keep them in place. I added the flower buds and smaller flowers where they were needed. I’m always in need of general “hello, hi” cards, so I took the Fresh Picked Sentiments Etched Dies and die-cut “hi” three times from white card. The die cuts were adhered into a little stack and then added onto my panel. For a bit of extra sparkle, I added some Gold Mix Color Essential Gems around the spray. Thinking Of You My final card uses the gorgeous Fresh Picked Anemones Etched Dies. I absolutely adore anemones and have lots in my garden, so this was also a favorite set! See, I told you it’s hard to pick a favorite – they are all fabulous in their own way! I used this set more in the way that it was intended. You can actually line up four anemones on a horizontal A2 card but I went with three for my card today. Again, I started off by doing all of my die-cutting. I used Pink Sand and Fruit Punch Color Essentials Cardstock for the petals of the flower; white card for the larger centerpiece, and a gold glitter card for the smaller center portion. The leaves and stems were die-cut from Rainforest Color Essentials Cardstock. You can make your own glitter cardstock really easily and I used some for the centres of the flowers. They were die-cut from a panel of Solaria Gold Art Glitter cardstock – it is super sparkly! I have a batch of small panels ready for when I need them. I did a step by step guest blog post recently on using Art Glitter, so you may want to check that out for ideas. I adhered the flower heads together using Bearly Art Glue and then I added them onto the stems, again with wet adhesive. The three completed flowers were adhered to a white panel that I had trimmed down a tiny bit at the bottom. This panel was then added onto a top folding white A2 notecard using adhesive. To ground the flowers a little, I added a very thin strip of Solaria Gold Art Glitter card along the bottom edge. My sentiment comes from Must-Have Sentiments Glimmer Hot Foil Plate and Die Set. I foiled the hot foil plate using Champagne Glimmer Hot Foil and the Glimmer Hot Foil System. The sentiments were cut out with the coordinating die set and I also cut some extra from plain white card so that I could make a small stack. This was then added across the leaves using Bearly Art Glue. To finish the card off, I added some Gold Mix Color Essential Gems for embellishment. I hope that this gives you some inspiration for these sets. They really were a joy to create with and I hope I can find some time to play with them a bit more in the next few weeks and months.

Hi everyone! It's no secret I love all things floral. Paper, stamps and dies -I love them all! My latest obsession is with the new flower die set from Spellbinders called Be Bold Blooms! I spent a few hours one day cutting all the pieces from many colors to have on the ready. Here are a few of the cards I made with them. First up are cards using gorgeous peachy colors for the blooms and a blue toned green for the stems and leaves. For this set I used silver micro beads in the centers.

Hello Crafters! It’s Melody Rupple here and I’m excited to be on the blog today to share a few cards I have created with the new Fresh Picked Collection. I love the modern, contemporary feel of this collection. The Fresh Picked Collection includes 4 floral dies, a sentiment die set, and an embossing folder. I have created three cards with the collection. So let’s get started. My first card features the Fresh Picked Anemones Etched Dies. You can create four different Anemones with the die set and you can use them separately or together for different looks. I die-cut the flowers from Pink Sand, Dahlia, and Wild Berry Cardstocks and used Peridot and Rainforest Cardstocks for the stems. For the center of each flower, I used Onyx and Gold Mirror. I die-cut one of the sentiments from the Fresh Picked Sentiments Etched Dies from Mirror Gold Cardstock and two more times from white cardstock. Then I layered the three die cuts on top of each other. This gives the sentiment more dimension. I finished off with a few Gold Mix Color Essentials Gems. Here is a look at the Fresh Picked Daffodils Etched Dies. Here I chose to cut the flowers from white cardstock and then blend yellow inks. I used Fern Cardstock for the greenery and blended ink on the edges of the leaves. I die-cut the sentiment from Waterfall Cardstock and added a shadow of Mirror Gold Cardstock. Here is a closer look at the background. All the card fronts are embossed with Columns Embossing Folder. My final project features the Fresh Picked Berries Etched Dies. I chose to use all the dies in the set to cover the whole card front. I used Glacier, Raindrop, Cosmic Sky, and Sunkissed cardstocks for the berries and added Spectrum AB Color Essentials Gems to the tops of the berries. I used one more of the nine sentiments in the Fresh Picked Sentiments Etched Dies. The smaller sentiment is from the Hello, Friend Sentiments Glimmer Hot Plate. Other Supplies Twine, Yellow and Green Inks. I hope you enjoyed taking a look at the new Fresh Picked Collection. You can find more inspiration from me on my Blog and my Instagram.
Hi everyone! I'm sharing 2 more projects with the Spellbinders November Club kits. My cards use the Small Die and Wax Seal of the Month and patterned papers from the Quick and Easy card kit. First up is a pretty square flower card from the Small Die of the Month. The set is called "Build a Card Hello" and it is super pretty! I die cut the single flower outline with Gold Mirror and die cut and inlaid the bloom and leaves with patterned paper from the Quick and Easy card kit. I added a gold foiled sentiment and used some gold pearls on the mini flowers which help bring out the gold foil elements in the patterned paper. Next is a card using "Bloomy For You" wax seal of the month. This one is my absolute favorite wax seal stamp so far! The detailed raised parts are so crisp you can easily color it with a metallic pen and not have any flooding. The kit comes with a pack of Pastel Lilac wax beads and the color is so soft and pretty. I love how this card turned out! The Pastel Lilac wax beads were a PERFECT match to the patterned paper pack I just got (as a freebie from Scrapbook.com -don't sleep on the freebies!) by Paper Rose. The paper pack has gorgeous purple flower patterns and I coordinated my colors and die cut a variety of Stems die sets in a pale gray, matte silver and deep purple cardstock. Supplies used on these cards: Small Die of the Month Everlasting Circles die set Wax Seal of the Month Quick and Easy card kit Gold Pearls Gold Mirror Cardstock Yana's Special Sentiments Glimmer Gold foil roll ----- Purple Haze 6x6 paper pack by Paper Rose Sealed Squiggles die set Sealed Leaf Sprigs die set Sealed Twine die set wax seal adhesive circles DecoColor Silver Metallic Marker If you haven't already, be sure to check out all the other Monthly Club Kits.

Hello Crafty Friends, It's time to share the cards featuring the Spellbinders Club for April. I can't believe it's already April; time flies by so quickly. I'm sharing two cards today, I made two of them with DOML and CDOM of this month. DOML + EOM April 2024 First, I embossed the EOM "Faux Stitched
The March Club Kits from Spellbinders are now available! The clubs will remain open until March 27. My first card features the Small dies of the month: Wise Owl, the Embossing Folder: Checkered Scallops, one of the Stencils: Dynamic Backgrounds, and a glimmered sentiment from Sketched Lines, the Glimmer Kit for this month. supplies: colored cardstock, Wise Owl dies, sentiment from Sketched Lines, gold glimmer foil, Checkered Scallops embossing folder, and one of the Dynamic Backgrounds stencils for this month, light aqua ink and a blending brush For the background, I embossed with the new folder of the month, Checkered Scallops. I discovered that 2 of the 5 stencils in the Dynamic Backgrounds stencil kit matches it perfectly, so I used just 1 of them with an ink slightly darker than my pale aqua cardstock. Here's another of the stencils; it looks to me like brushstrokes going horizontally down the length of the panel, but here I only brushed in 4 of them, roughly in the center of my panel, in shades of purples, then added an arrangement of flowers from this month's Stitching kit: Read & Sip. supplies: white, dark and medium purples, yellow, and green cardstocks, Dynamic Backgrounds Brushstroke stencil, floral arrangement from Stitched Read & Sip, (retired) Tammy Tutterow cling sentiment from Tiny Sentiments I've always loved brushstrokes, so I know this particular stencil will get lots of use from me! Last for today, I have 2 cards that using the Glimmer Plates of the Month. This first one combines them with the bonus dies that you receive when you order the Deluxe Caboodle. supplies: red, navy, cream, kraft, beige, and other brights cardstock, Sketched Lines glimmer plate and sentiment, Cobalt Blue glimmer foil, Fairy Tales dies (Caboodle bonus), Postage Edge Rectangle die Starting with an A2 panel of navy cardstock, I positioned the Sketched Lines glimmer plate first vertically, then horizontally and foiled with Cobalt Blue foil. That panel was trimmed down with a postage edge die, then placed onto a red card front. Then I constructed the Fairy Tale castle, foiled my sentiment, and centered them onto my card, adding some stars (also from the bonus dies). And finally, I used the Glimmer Sketch Lines with the flowers from the Stitching Kit. supplies: white, yellow, green, and several blue cardstocks, Sketched Lines glimmer kit, Cobalt Blue glimmer foil, flowers and leaves from Stitched Read & Sip kit, sentiment from Snowflake Wishes Stamp/die set I foiled the sketched lines with Cobalt Blue glimmer foil onto a panel of bright blue cardstock, then added it at an angle to a pale blue card base. Then I arranged my sentiment and flowers. Cut from white, they make me think of strawberry blossoms! You can look HERE for information on Spellbinders Clubs.
