Spellbinders – Elegant Twist Collection

Hello! Today, I am sharing two cards created with Spellbinders products from the recently-released Elegant Twist Collection by Becca Feeken.

My first card features the Elegant Twist Oval die set.

The Elegant Twist Oval die set includes twist oval and outline oval dies, which can be used in many different combinations when nested. This Spellbinders video provides greater detail about the set.

  • I cut a rectangular (3 3/4″ x 5″) panel using a twist die with a plain oval nested inside. In that manner, the outside was not cut, only the inside.
  • I then used the same plain oval die to cut a rectangular panel from light-blue cardstock.
  • I added the light-blue panel behind the darker blue panel.
  • I stamped the sentiment on to white cardstock, and centered it behind the frame assembly.
  • I added that assembly to the card base and embellished with flowers cut with a die in the Floral Tiara Topper die set. The vellum sprigs were cut with a die in the June Large Die of the Month kit, as were the flower centers.

My second card showcases the Splendid Trilliant die set paired with a sentiment included in the Borders and Sentiments glimmer plate set. I grounded the assembly with an oval from the Oval Coronet die set. (You can see another card created with that set here.)

  • I cut the Splendid Trilliant overlay from white cardstock using the detailed die and outline die in the set.
  • I cut the dark blue piece using just the outline die.
  • I foil-embossed the sentiment on to the dark blue piece. I then adhered the pieces together.
  • Similarly, I cut the overlay using the detailed die and outline die in the Oval Coronet set. I cut a solid panel with just the outline die and adhered those together.
  • I the Splendid Trilliant and Oval Coronet pieces together, adhered the assembly to the card base, and added flowers cut with a die in the Floral Tiara Topper die set.

Hello!  Today I am sharing a CAS friendship card created with the June Large Die of the Month kit from Spellbinders – “Geometrical Floral Frames.” (Edited: This die set is no longer available.)

On my card, I used one of the frames in the set along with the flowers and foliage.

  • I heat-embossed the sentiment on deep blue cardstock.
  • I cut the frame from gold foil.
  • I cut the greenery from SU Cucumber Crush (now retired) and vellum. I cut the flowers from yellow, red, and white, and their centers from gold foil.
  • I glued the foliage and flowers to the frame. I used flowers to cover the junction points for the foliage.
  • I glued the frame to the card base.
  • I added flat sequins in several sizes to the card to fill in the “white space.”

Spellbinders June 2020 Small Die – Handing You a Smile

Hello and Happy June!  Today I am sharing a CAS friendship card created with the June Small Die of the Month kit from Spellbinders – “Handing You a Smile.”

Spellbinders June 2020 Small Die – Handing You a Smile

On my card, I used two of the three flower shapes in the set. I repeated the poppy-like floral in yellow and red and added the other flower in a warm orange, which I envisioned as a poppy from a different perspective (as in looking directly into the center).

  • I heat-embossed the sentiment on SU Island Indigo cardstock (now retired).
  • I cut the flowers from TE Lemon Meringue, SU Tangerine Tango (now retired), and SU Poppy Parade. The poppies in yellow and red consist of four die-cut pieces; I really like the detail the dies provide.
  • I added the flower centers cut from Whip Cream cardstock. The set includes several options for the centers. Since I was depicting the same flower, I used the same center.
  • I cut the stems and leaf from SU Cucumber Crush (now retired).
  • I cut the hand and the hand base and adhered them together.
  • I added the flowers to the card base positioning the flowers in the hand.
