Spellbinders June Small Die Kit Club – Christmas Card

Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS Christmas card created with the Spellbinders Small Die of the Month die set “Kaleidoscope Trio” (June 2019). This card was just a happy accident; I didn’t set out to make a Christmas card! My first round of cards created with this die set can be found in this post.

For the back layer, I cut white cardstock with the die set’s hexagon bottom die.
I used one of the detailed hexagon dies to cut the top layer from Lawn Fawn Peacock, Stampin’ Up Melon Mambo, and Gina K Tranquil Teal cardstock.
I used spray adhesive to adhere the top layers to the back layers. I then taped the hexagons together on the back.
I stamped the All Year Long sentiment on to a Simon Says Stamp Sea Glass panel with FSJ Fusion ink.
I attached the “snowflake” assembly to the card base with spray adhesive.
I added sequins for sparkle and to help fill in the white space.

Spellbinders/FSJ Hello Summer

Hello! Today I’m delighted to be sharing three cards over on the Spellbinders blog featuring new summer-themed products, part of the Hello Summer – Splash Zone Collection. I’m a big fan of anything ocean-themed and fascinated the different takes on that theme in papercrafting – nautical, tropical, and everything in-between.

The details on how I created the cards can be found in this post. I hope you’ll head on over to learn more and leave a comment. Below, I’ve shared photos of the projects and the supply list.

Penny Black – CAS Thank You

Hello! Today, I am sharing a quick-and-easy CAS card featuring Penny Black supplies. I tried a number of different color combinations before settling on this one. I’m a big fan of combining bold colors with black and white.

I cut the 51-235 Swirled Squares from black cardstock and adhered them to cardstock squares cut from Stampin’ Up Melon Mambo, Bazzill Circus Peanuts, and SU Bermuda Bay. I used spray adhesive to adhere the square frames.
I added the squares to a card base measuring 6″ x 3 1/2″ on which I had stamped a sentiment from the 30-281 Flower Sparks set.
I cut the butterflies with a die in the 51-132 Flights of Fancy set and added them to the card with foam adhesive.

Thanks for visiting!

Penny Black – You Brighten My Day

Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS friendship card created with Penny Black supplies. I’m in the final stages of packing up my supplies for my move, so this post is brief. What I still have around (but will be packed up in a few minutes) – Distress Oxide inks, white cardstock, and a few stamps and dies (listed at the bottom of the post).

I inked up cardstock with some of my favorite colors: yellow, teal, and a coral/orange. I cut the cardstock with two different butterfly dies, which I added to a panel on which I had stamped the sentiment. I added the butterflies with foam adhesive.

Sentiment: Special Thoughts
Butterfly with holes: Flourish and Butterflies
Other Butterfly: Flights of Fancy

Spellbinders – Tulip Flower Frame

Hello! Today, I am sharing a CAS Thank You card created with the Tulip Flower Frame Card Creator die set designed by Maria Job for Spellbinders. I previously shared cards created with the set in this post.

I specifically wanted to use patterned paper on the card base as this particular “cover plate” die has an ample amount of open space. Once I cut the frame and placed it over the patterned paper, I decided that some of the tulips in the frame should be filled in, which I did with the inlay method.

I heat-embossed a sentiment from the Everyday Script set and cut it with its coordinating die. I cut circles from both red and cream cardstock, which I adhered to the card center. I adhered the sentiment to the circles with foam adhesive.

Thanks so much for dropping by!
