Hello and happy June! Today, I am sharing three CAS projects created with this month’s Spellbinders Small Die of the Month die set “Kaleidoscope Trio” ($12.50 with US shipping included in the cost!). The set includes eleven dies with which to create layered shapes. Let’s take a look!
For my first project, I used the fan-shaped layering dies to create an A2-sized “Good Luck” card.
- I die-cut the fan-shaped layers from cardstock in black (back layer), dark teal, brushed gold, and teal (top layer).
- I assembled the layers with spray adhesive.
- I heat-embossed the sentiment in gold and cut the cardstock with a circle die.
- I attached the fan pieces to the card background, adhering the sentiment on top.
On my second card, measuring 4 1/2″ x 4 1/2″ square, I used the circle dies.
- I cut the circles from cardstock in green (back layer), blue, and turquoise (top layer). I also used a circle die to cut a white cardstock circle for the base. (Otherwise the row of assembled circles in the background would be visible through the circles in the front).
- I assembled the layers with spray adhesive.
- I attached the rings together.
- I added a white heat-embossed sentiment which I “framed” with a white circle and attached the two to the center of the “kaleidoscope.”
- I added the assembly to the card background.
On my last card, I used the hexagon dies.
- I cut the hexagon shapes from cardstock in white (back layer), turquoise, and orange (top layer).
- I assembled the layers with spray adhesive.
- I attached the hexagons together with tape on the back.
- I added the assembly to the kraft card base.
- I added a heat-embossed sentiment to the top of the hexagons.
There are lots of options with these dies! Thanks for dropping by!

Hello,
Your card is amazing. I live in France and unfortunately, I cannot buy these fabulous dies. I hope that Spellbinders will sell them via Amazon soon… Do you know if they sell them by another way or site ?
Thank you for your publications !
Hi Sophie, as I understand it, right now the clubs are not available in France (as you said). However, sometimes, after a few months, the kits are sold separately. For example, here is a link to the Small Die Kits sold separately: https://www.spellbinderspaperarts.com/search.php?search_query=small+die+kit
