Hello there, I hope everyone is well. After an extended time off due to recovering from surgery (nothing serious), I am finally back in my craft room! It will be a bit slow to start with, so I hope you will bear with me but it is nice to be back! Today I have a card to share with you using the Spellbinders April 2023 Large Die of the Month Club Kit. This month is called "Punch & Pierce Frame & Sentiments" and you can see why! There are a few different layers/panels that you can use (I used two of them on my card today). There are also lots of lovely sentiments too! PLEASE NOTE: This post contains affiliate links. Please see below for my full disclosure. I started off my card by die cutting the piercing frame die from the Spellbinders April 2023 Large Die of the Month Club Kit from white cardstock. I popped all the pieces out and then adhered it flat to an A2 white card base. I then die cut the smallest of the panels from white cardstock also. The 'hello' word was die cut three times from Spellbinders Royal Amethyst Cardstock for the word itself and the shadow cut from white twice. They were layered up, one on top of another using Bearly Art Glue, for dimension. I then stamped the 'from me to you' sentiment from the Spellbinders Sentiments For You Stamp Set on to white cardstock with Versafine Clair Nocturne Ink and cut into a strip. I already had some of the Spellbinders Be Bold Blooms Etched Dies cut. I like to have these cut but not assembled, so that I can assemble them when needed. I grabbed some purple flowers and green leaves and arranged them on the panel. Apart from the large flower, they were all adhered flat to the panel. The large flower was popped up slightly with thin foam tape. The sentiments were then adhered in the middle with more thin foam tape. The panel was adhered to the card with thin foam tape and then the card finished off with a few Spellbinders Fashion Oyster Color Essentials Pearl Dots.

To buy the kit - if you are a current subscriber to the Large Die of the Month Club Kit (or any kit), you do not need to do anything. You will be charged as normal on the 5th of the month and your kit will be shipped to you. If you are a new subscriber, you can purchase the kit from the 6th - 27th of April 2023. Members can cancel their membership at any time. Although this card is a little busier than I would normally go, with the piercing detail, I still think it is pretty! Thank you so much for stopping by today and bearing with me in my absence. I hope you have a wonderful day!

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 Be Bold Collection from Spellbinders. The gorgeous embossing folders, pretty florals, and beautiful fonts in this collection inspired me to create three bright and cheery cards for different occasions. Mandala Flower Slimline Hello Card The beautiful floral design on the Mandala Flower Embossing Folder caught my eye first. Here I added bright bouquets and golden sentiments for a cheerful slimline hello card. Trim a piece of white cardstock to 3.25” x 8.25 and emboss it using the Mandala Flower Embossing Folder. Mat the embossed panel with Mirror Gold Cardstock and adhere it to a side-folding white card base measuring 3.5” x 8.5”. Die-cut Pink Sand, Dahlia, Persimmon, Teal Topaz, Lagoon, Peridot, Rainforest, and Mirror Gold Cardstock using the Be Bold Blooms Die Set. Adhere the layers together with liquid glue. Arrange the flowers together into two bunches as shown and adhere down to the card front with liquid glue and foam adhesive for tons of dimension. Die-cut Gold Mirror and Lagoon Cardstock using the hello die from Smooth Lines Mix & Match Sentiments Die Set. Adhere the layers together, allowing the teal layer to show from behind like a shadow, and add to the card front in the center of the embossed flower. Apply Gold Hot Foil to white cardstock using one of the sentiments from the Mini Everyday Sentiments Foil Plate Set and the Glimmer Hot Foil Machine. Die-cut it out using the coordinating die and pop it up on the bottom of the card with foam adhesive. Carved Tile For You A2 Card The Carved Tile Embossing Folder creates the most beautiful subtle background design for slimline cards, but is perfectly proportioned for mini slimline and A2-sized cards too! Here I trimmed off one of the three floral designs from the background and added it to an A2 card base to create this pretty card for a friend. Trim a piece of white cardstock to 3.75” x 5.5” and emboss it using the Carved Tile Embossing Folder, making sure to position it so that only two floral designs will appear. Trim a piece of Cosmic Sky Cardstock to 4.25” x 5.5” and adhere it to a top-folding A2-sized white card base with a tape runner. Add the embossed panel in the center of the card front with foam adhesive. Die-cut Pink Sand, Dahlia, Persimmon, Rainforest, and Mirror Gold Cardstock using the Be Bold Blooms Die Set. Adhere the layers together with liquid glue. Arrange the blooms in bouquets in opposite corners and adhere them down with liquid glue and foam adhesive for tons of dimensions. Die-cut Gold Mirror and Cosmic Sky Cardstock using the Smooth Lines Mix & Match Sentiments Die Set. Adhere the layers together, allowing the blue layer to show from behind like a shadow, and add to the card front in the center with liquid glue. Lemon Zest Slimline Card I thought the Lemon Zest Die Set was so unique that I had to create a big, bold slimline card with it. And with the help of the beautiful Be Bold Alphabet dies, I was able to add a fun custom sentiment! Trim a piece of Teal Topaz Cardstock to 3.5” x 8.5” and emboss it using the Loops Embossing Folder. Adhere the embossed panel to a side-folding white card base measuring 3.5” x 8.5” with a tape runner. Die-cut white, yellow, Rainforest, and Fern Cardstock using the Lemon Zest Die Set until you have enough pieces to create two lemon bouquets. Adhere the layers together with liquid and add to the top and bottom of the card front with foam adhesive. Die-cut white and yellow cardstock with the Be Bold Lowercase Alphabet and Numbers Die Set and the Be Bold Punctuation & More Die Set. Adhere the yellow layer behind the white with liquid glue, allowing the yellow to peek out a bit like a shadow. Arrange the sentiment in the center of the card front and adhere it down with liquid glue. Other supplies White heavyweight cardstock, Stampin’ Up Pineapple Punch Cardstock, tape runner, foam adhesive. I hope you enjoyed this trio of bright and cheery cards and thanks so much for stopping by today. You can find more inspiration over at my blog AnnieBWills.com.

Hello friends! I am popping in to share a happy and cheery card. We are in the mist of dead winter. My yard and trees may look beautiful in the winter wonder. BUT, I am missing seeing colors! Introducing Be Bold Blooms Etched Dies. About this die set: This Be Bold Blooms Etched Dies is part of the Be Bold Collection. The set of 21 thin metal dies creates a fabulous spray of big and bold blooms! Use some or all of them, it goes well with any type of projects that calls for a wonderful floral motif! In today's card, I also tried out the new Spellbinders Gemstones. These new and improved gems are shiny and dimensional! You want instant bling? This is it! One thing that I want to mention is... do not get overwhelmed with these 21 pieces of dies at first. All you need is to get acquainted with each piece and you will feel so accomplished once you started assembling (ask me how I know!). How do you get "acquainted" with the die? I would find the photo of the sample (from the Spellbinders website) and have it facing right at me on my craft desk. By spending just a few minutes, you would get the sense how all the pieces come together. Mind you, you do not have to follow exact instructions.... I love to make my own sometimes. However, it is definitely easy to have a guide to follow. Little by little, you will be able to assemble your own flowers. I also recommend that you study the bouquet photos over Pinterest. Observe the flower bouquet's composition and colors.... and so on. Once you do all that, you will ace this set and have a blast creating your own bouquet. I colored all the pieces with Alcohol Markers. I used Altenew Artist Markers since I have the most colors from the Altenew collection. However, you can use ANY coloring medium in your stash. I also want to point out that Spellbinders' new Precision Layering Dies are a dream to work with. No more weird or odd rectangles! No more measuring! Just die cut and layer.... I used two of the layering dies and they make the design look even more polished. If you do shop Spellbinders, please check out Spellbinders HERE. (FREE US shipping over $75) Thanks for stopping by!
