Spellbinders Foiled Nautical Thank You

Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS card showcasing a foiled sentiment from the Spellbinders Stylish Script Collection.

I paired the foiled Thank You sentiment with ovals cut using dies in the Elegant Twist Ovals set. I previously shared a card created with this same die set here.

To create a nautical-themed Thank You:

Foil the sentiment on Whip Cream cardstock in Gold.
Cut the Elegant Twist Ovals frames from Brush Gold cardstock.
With dies in the set, cut an oval from Whip Cream cardstock; adhere to the back of the larger gold twist oval.
With a die in the set, cut the foiled sentiment cardstock; adhere the smaller gold twist oval on top.
Add the ovals to a card base covered with Carta Bella paper; add nautical stickers (Paper House Productions “At the Beach”) for embellishment.

Note: the card is slightly larger than A2.

Spellbinders – Destination Japan Collection

Hello! Today I am sharing an easy-to-create, CAS card showcasing the Spellbinders Pagoda die set, part of the Destination Japan collection by Lene Lok. I shared another card from this collection here.

I foiled a sentiment from the More Sentiments set in Matte Gold on Whip Cream cardstock and cut as a thin strip.
The Pagoda set includes four pieces. I cut the body and top of the pagoda with the outline and detail dies from Brush Gold cardstock.
I cut the body and top again with just the outline dies from Candy Apple cardstock.
I cut thin strips of Whip Cream cardstock which I adhered behind the windows of the pagoda.
I adhered the gold top and body to the red carstock and attached the pieces together.
The card base background is a sheet from the MFT Woodgrain Whimsy paper pad.
I added the sentiment to the lower portion of the pagoda.

Spellbinders July 2020 Small Die – Ornamental Floral Card Creator

Hello and Happy July! Today I am sharing two cards created with the July Small Die of the Month kit from Spellbinders – “Ornamental Floral Card Creator.” The card designs are quite similar; I’m showing two orientations and two color combinations.

To begin, I cut two arched panels, which I glued together to create a frame.
I heat-embossed the sentiment on to a rectangular panel to which I glued the frame.
I cut the flowers using the two large flower dies in the set. On one of the flowers, I trimmed off the foliage. On another of the flowers, I trimmed off part of the foliage.
I used the inlaid technique for the flower centers, petals, and leaves.
I added the assembled flowers to the panel.
I added flat sequins to the panel as embellishment.

Spellbinders Inlaid Die-cut Card

Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS card that uses the diecutting inlaid technique and features Spellbinders supplies.

To begin, I cut the Waves overlay from white cardstock.
I backed the overlay with dark blue cardstock which created a frame for the other pieces of carstock.
I cut light blue cardstock with the Waves die and placed those pieces into the frame.
I cut medium blue cardstock with the Waves die an placed those pieces into the frame.
I foiled the sentiment in silver and adhered the strip to the assembled wave panel. I adhered the panel to a dark blue card base.

Although inlay technique takes time, it’s a bit like working a jigsaw, which can be rewarding and therapeutic.
