Elegant Amaryllis Christmas Card

Hello! I’m excited to share a CAS, elegant Christmas card featuring a single, stunning amaryllis created with Spellbinders supplies in the Amaryllis Christmas Collection by Yana Smakula. The focal point is accompanied by a BetterPress sentiment. This simple yet elegant design captures the beauty of the holidays with a timeless floral motif and a joyful message.

Elegant Amaryllis Christmas Card

      • Press the Home for Christmas sentiment in black ink on the Evergreen Season Collection paper. Trim to 4″ x 5 1/4″ and add to an A2-size card base.
      • With a die in the Yana’s Amaryllis set, cut the bloom from red cardstock. Carefully turn the piece over and tape from behind to keep the outline and interior pieces together. Cut two more blooms from darker red cardstock, removing the interior pieces and keeping the outlines. Adhere these together and then adhere to the piece with the full bloom intact. Cut the flower once more from gold cardstock. Fussy-cut and add the gold stem to the bloom piece.
      • Finally, trim the completed bloom and the bottom and add to the card front.

CAS Halloween Card: Frog in a Witch’s Hat

Hello! Today, I am sharing a Halloween card that is fun yet minimal.  Using the Spellbinders “Hoppy Halloween” die set, this month’s Deluxe Caboodle Bonus item, I designed a clean and simple card. The adorable frog and the “Trick or Treat” sentiment take center stage. It’s a blend of spooky charm and playful simplicity!

Spellbinders | Team Spirit Penguin

Hello! With the start of regular season football just around the corner, I am sharing a handmade card featuring a penguin sporting his (her) team’s colors. Using Spellbinders dies, I’ve dressed this penguin in Seattle Seahawks green and blue, perfect for celebrating my hometown team. But don’t worry—whether you’re a fan of another team or want to make a card for someone else, the penguin’s scarf and earmuffs can easily be changed to match any sports colors.
