Valentine Featuring Spellbinders Embossing Folder

Hello! I am sharing another mini-slimline card featuring the Spellbinders February 2022 Embossing Folder Kit Club. Check out my previous post showcasing this same design here. This card is Valentine-themed.

Color white cardstock with Distress Oxide inks.
Die-cut the inked panel to a mini-slimline size using the largest die in the Precision Layering Mini Slimline A set.
Dry-emboss the panel with the February 2022 Embossing Folder Kit Club. Remove the top texture with a sanding block to reveal the pattern in white.
Using a die in the Fluted Classics Circles set, cut a circle from the panel slightly above the middle.

Create a card base sized 3.5 x 6.5 inches; create a mat for the dry-embossed panel from Onyx cardstock.
Die-cut custom the large sentiment with dies in the Simply Perfect Alphabet set from Onyx cardstock.
Glimmer-foil sentiment from the Mini Sincere Sentiments on Snowdrift cardstock in black. Trim and position behind the dry-embossed panel, giving room for the larger letters.
Glue Simply Perfect Alphabet letters above the glimmer-foiled sentiment.

Now through Sunday, February 13, 2022, join the Glimmer Foil Fiesta to save up to 40% Glimmer Hot Foil Plates and 25% Off Glimmer Hot Foil Rolls.

Hello crafty friends! I’m sharing CAS mini-slimline cards created with the Spellbinders February 2022 Embossing Folder Kit Club “Sketched Floral.” I used die-cutting, glimmer-foiling, and dry-embossing on these cards – three of my favorite techniques!

Color white cardstock with Distress Oxide inks. I created versions with both warm and cool tones.
Die-cut inked the panel to mini-slimline size using the largest die in the Precision Layering Mini Slimline A set.
Dry-emboss the panel with the February 2022 Embossing Folder Kit Club. Remove the top texture with a sanding block to reveal the pattern in white.

Spellbinders Be Bold – Color Block Love Take 2

Hello! I am sharing another CAS Valentine’s Day card created with the Be Bold Color Block Love You die set at Spellbinders. You can see my first card using the set here.

On this card, I die-cut the “LOVE” letters from white glitter paper and inlaid die-cut pieces of red and shades of pink.

I die-cut the “you” letters from white cardstock that I had heat-embossed with Gold Tinsel powder.

Spellbinders Mini Slimline Layering Basics

I am delighted to share two cards created with the recently released Mini Smiline Layering Basics sets – Precision Layering Mini Slimline A and B – at Spellbinders.

Both cards measure 3 1/8 x 6 1/8 inches. I die-cut the layers using the A and B dies. Each set contains 12 dies with which to cut spaced layers of 1/8 inch. When combined with the other set, you will achieve a 1/16-inch border.

On both, I die-cut sentiments from Snowdrift cardstock with the Smooth Lines die set.

Spellbinders Color Block Thank You

Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS Thank You card created with the Be Bold Color Block Thank You die set at Spellbinders. The Be Bold Color Block collection features die sets with which you can quickly and easily create bold and graphic greetings. I shared projects created with other dies in the collection here and here.

On the first card, I die-cut the “THANK” letters from glitter cardstock with the Be Bold Color Block Thank You set. I used the die to hold the letters as I taped them together from the back. I adhered the assembly to an Onyx card base measuring 3.25 x 6.25 in. I die-cut the “you” letters from white glitter cardstock, which I adhered to letters cut from Snowdrift cardstock. I added the letters to the card base with foam adhesive.

For the second card, I die-cut the “THANK” letters from Onyx cardstock with the Be Bold Color Block Thank You set. I die-cut the background in sections from the glitter cardstock. I used the die to tape all of the pieces together. I then added an additional set of Onyx letters. I constructed the “you” letters as I did on the first card.
