Hello! Today, I am delighted to be participating in a blog hop along with other papercrafters sharing projects created with the Spellbinders July 2020 Club Subscriptions. You should have reached me from the blog of Joy Baldwin. (The entire list of participants is included at the end of my post.) For the hop, I created two cards showcasing the July Small Die of the Month kit from Spellbinders – “Ornamental Floral Card Creator.” I shared two other cards created with this set in this post.
To celebrate this release, Spellbinders is giving away a $50 gift certificate to three blog readers – selected from the comments on the Spellbinders blog. Hop along for additional chances to win. Giveaway closes on Sunday, July 26th, 11:59 pm EDT. The winner will be announced in the blog hop post the following Tuesday. The winner is responsible for shipping cost, duties and taxes.
My cards are similar in design; both combine the Small Die of the Month set with foiled sentiments from the Stylish Script Collection. On the first card, I foiled the Beautiful Ride sentiment and surrounded it with a frame, blossoms, foliage, and small flowers cut with the Small Die of the Month set.
Because the petals are the same color as the flower’s outline, inlaying the petals was easy. I simply added tape on the back when I first cut the shape. I glued the foliage pieces before adding leaves cut from Brush Gold.
On my second card, I foiled a sentiment from the For You set. This time, I simplified the floral clusters (eliminating the one in the upper-left corner) and added more small flowers cut from Brush Gold.
Thanks for stopping by! The next stop on the hop is the blog of Virginia Lu. Scroll for the list of participants.

That is a lovely card. Leaving the inlay pieces in the flowers adds such a beautiful dimension, then adding the gold is the cherry on the top! Great kit!
