Hello! Today, I am delighted to be participating in a blog hop along with other crafters sharing projects created with the various Spellbinders April 2020 Club Subscriptions. You should have reached me from the blog of Ilina Crouse. For the hop, I created three cards with the April Small Die of the Month kit from Spellbinders – “Special Celebrations.”
Spellbinders is giving away a $50 gift certificate to 3 lucky blog readers, selected from the comments on the Spellbinders blog. Hop along for additional chances to win. Giveaway closes Sunday, April 26, 11:59 pm EDT. The winner will be announced in the Spellbinders blog hop post the following Tuesday. The winner is responsible for shipping cost, duties, and taxes.

Additionally, I will be drawing a winner to receive a $25 gift certificate from the comments on my blog. Deadline is Friday, April 24 at 11:59pm EDT. The winner is responsible for shipping cost, duties, and taxes.
I used the April Small Die of the Month kit to create cards to celebrate an anniversary, Christmas, and an engagement.

The April Small Die of the Month set is designed to work with the Trucking Through the Seasons set; the dies can also be used on their own. You can see additional cards I created with the kit here.
For the anniversary card, I created the sentiment using the “Forever” license plate. I added heart balloons and a heart cut from patterned paper for the background.

The balloons were tethered with strings from the Sunday Drive Hitched set.

On the Christmas card, I used the “Happy” ornament overlay and “Holidays” license plate included in the Small Die of the Month set.

I cut two additional ornaments, leaving them plain, and “tied” the three ornaments together with twine.

For the engagement congratulations, I cut a license plate using the Truckin Through the Seasons set and cut the ring and heart balloons using the April Small Die of the Month set. I tied gold twine to the balloons, pulled the twine through the ring, and adhered the ends under the license plate.

To add texture and visual interest, I dry-embossed the background with the Inspire embossing folder.

Now it’s time to head to the blog of Alicia Havranek.
