Cardmaking and Scrapbooking with Jean Manis
Hello! Today I am over on the Spellbinders blog sharing two cards created with the Filigree Drop In Circlet Doily set, part of the recently- released Dimensional Doilies Collection at Spellbinders. I used the set to create elegant cards in two different color schemes.
Head over to the blog post for all of the details.

Hello! Today I am sharing two CAS cards featuring products from the 3D Holiday Vignettes at Spellbinders, designed by Becca Feeken. A few months ago, I shared projects with these same products, which you can see here. I don’t always have the time to create projects as detailed as those, so I created two more cards using just the focal image dies in those sets. Let’s take a look!
On the first card, I used the Santa Claus die set to cut Whip Cream cardstock for the focal image. I used the circle die in that set to cut a light green cardstock with which to back the image. I added the assembly to a red cardstock base on which I heat-embossed a sentiment.
My second card features the Reindeer Prance set. I cut the focal image from Whip Cream cardstock and backed it with the same soft green as in the first card. I added the assembly to a dry-embossed background and added the heat-embossed sentiment.
Supplies: Hero Arts Holiday Animals (now retired)

Hello! I am delighted to be part of the Spellbinders Holiday 2019 Blog Hop showcasing products by Becca Feeken. My projects showcase products from 3D Holiday Vignettes. You should have reached me from the blog of Amy Rysavy. I’ve included a full list of participants at the end of my post.
As part of the blog hop, Spellbinders is giving away a $50 gift certificate to one lucky blog reader to be selected from the comments across all of the blogs in the hop. Giveaway closes on Sunday, September 1st, 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 use similar designs and the same color scheme. The cards measure 4 1/2″ wide by 5 1/4″ tall. The Becca Feeken dies do all of the heavy lifting in these projects – their detail is just amazing!
On my first card I’ve paired the Santa Claus set with the Grand Snow Globe.
I cut the Grand Snow Globe frame from Whip Cream cardstock and backed it with light blue cardstock. I used the Grand Snow Globe pieces as a frame for my card, rather than to create a 3-D object; I trimmed the tabs from the sides.
I cut the front panel of the Santa Claus from Whip Cream cardstock to which I had applied Festive Berries Distress Oxide Ink.
I cut the star garland and ornaments from Brush Gold cardstock.
I heat-embossed with gold powder a sentiment on to cardstock colored with Festive Berries Distress Oxide Ink.
I placed the Santa piece into the Grand Snow Globe opening and taped it from behind.
I added the star garland piece to patterned paper, which I cut with the circle die in the set, and adhered them to a back panel.
I adhered the front panel to the back with foam adhesive and added the entire assembly to a card base. I then added the ornaments and sentiment.
My second card pairs Reindeer Prance with the Grand Holiday Cabinet.
I cut the Grand Holiday Cabinet from Whip Cream cardstock and backed it with light blue cardstock (cut with the outline die in the set). I used the Grand Holiday Cabinet pieces as a frame for the card; I trimmed off the tabs that are used if making a 3-D object.
I cut the front panel of the Reindeer Prance from Whip Cream cardstock to which I had applied Festive Berries Distress Oxide Ink.
I heat-embossed with white powder a sentiment on to cardstock colored with Festive Berries Distress Oxide Ink.
I placed the Reindeer front piece into the Grand Holiday Cabinet opening and taped it from behind.
I added the snow/icicle/star garland piece to patterned paper, which I cut with the circle die in the set, and adhered them to a back panel.
I adhered the front panel to the back with foam adhesive and added the entire assembly to a card base. I then added the sentiment.
Thanks so much for dropping by! The next stop on the hop is the blog of Varada Sharma. I’ve included the entire list of blog hop participants at the end of the post.

Hello! I am delighted to be participating in a blog hop showcasing the Vintage Treasures Collection by Becca Feeken for Spellbinders. You should have reached me from the blog of Hussena Calcuttawala. I have included a list of all of the participants at the end of my post.
To celebrate this release, Spellbinders is giving away a $50 gift certificate to 3 lucky blog readers – selected from the comments across all of the blogs in the hop. Giveaway closes on Sunday, July 14th 11:59 pm EDT. The winners will be announced in the blog hop post the following Monday. Winners are responsible for shipping cost, duties, and taxes.
According to the dictionary: vintage (adj): of old, recognized, and enduring interest, importance, or quality; treasure (noun): something of great worth or value; a collection of precious things. With these definitions in mind, I incorporated pearl and metallic accents, as well as traditional color schemes, on my projects. At the same time, I stayed true to my CAS style in the designs. Let’s take a look!
My first two projects use the Brillante Rondelle set. I have used the same design, varying the colors, to show how easy it is to change the project simply based on the color scheme. For both cards, which measure 5 1/2″ square:
My next set of cards feature the Marquise Diamond Pendant set.
For both cards:
My final card combines dies from the Bella Luce Oval and the Floral Tiara Topper sets.
