Hello! I am delighted to be participating in a blog hop sharing projects created with the Spellbinders January 2021 Club Subscriptions. You should have reached me from the blog of Jennifer Snyder. (The entire list of participants is included at the end of my post.) For the hop, I created two CAS Valentine’s Day cards using this month’s Large Die of the Month kit “Slimline Kaleidoscope Hearts.” I shared two other cards created with the kit in this post.
To celebrate this release, Spellbinders is giving away a $50 gift certificate to 3 lucky blog readers – selected from the comments on the Spellbinders blog. Giveaway closes on Saturday, January 17th, 11:59 pm MST. The winner will be announced in the blog hop post the following Tuesday. The winner is responsible for shipping cost, duties and taxes. Please note: store credit (gift certificate) cannot be applied to Club Subscriptions; store credit can be applied to shop past Club products, Club extras, and regular releases.
My first card is a slimline Valentine’s Day card with an ombré inlaid background.
- I cut the Large Die of the Month frame from Whip Cream cardstock and backed it with Pool Play cardstock.
- I used the frame die to cut the smaller hearts from pink and three shades of red and inlaid them into the frame.
- I cut two kaleidoscope hearts from white cardstock and two shades of red, backing the assembly with a solid heart cut from dark red.
- I glimmer-foiled the Heart Melt sentiment in silver on red cardstock and cut it with the Forever Love Hearts set.
- I adhered the sentiment heart and kaleidoscope hearts to the frame.
To showcase the versatility of the die set, I created a 4 1/4″ square card in which the background is created in the same manner as above.
- I die-cut the frame from white, linen-textured cardstock by cutting a 3 1/4″ square from the center of a 4 1/4″ square.
- I created the background in the manner as described for my first card.
- I cut the ring and sentiment from white, gold, and glitter cardstock using the Special Celebrations die set. (This post shares other ways to use the Special Celebrations set.)
