Spellbinders | Spring Birdhouse
Hello! Today, I am sharing a birdhouse-themed “hello” card created with Spellbinders die sets and glimmer foil plate.
- Glimmer-foil the Sentiments for Everyday in Black on Snowdrift cardstock and cut with the corresponding die. This is fast becoming a go-to set for sentiments.
- Die-cut the Build a Spring Birdhouse elements from colored cardstock, Snowdrift cardstock, and white cardstock colored with Distress Oxide inks. Die-cut birdhouse from yellow and Snowdrift cardstock. Trim roof and add to yellow birdhouse.
- Die-cut the Sweet Birds on a Branch elements from colored cardstock and white cardstock colored with Distress Oxide inks. Add leaves to branch with glue, glue together birds and flowers, add flowers to branch, and add bird inside birdhouse.
- Dry-emboss a light-blue cardstock panel measuring 4 x 5 1/4 inches with the Pretty Plaid folder. Attach to white textured card background (adhered to an A2-size card base).
- Add branch, birdhouse, bird, flowers, and sentiment to dry-embossed background with glue and foam adhesive.
Spellbinders | March 2022 Embossing Folder of the Month
Hello! I’m sharing a CAS mini-slimline card created with the Spellbinders March 2022 Embossing Folder Kit Club “Garden Path.”
I used die-cutting, glimmer-foiling, and dry-embossing on this card – my favorite techniques!
- I applied VersaMark ink on the embossing folder before running it through my die-cutting machine. This method enhances the contrast of the raised area on the background.
- I glimmer-foiled in black a sentiment from the Sentiments for Everyday set on vellum. I backed the vellum with double-sided adhesive and cut it with a die in the mini slimline B set. I added the sentiment strip to the dry-embossed panel and used the largest die in the mini slimline A set to cut it. This way I knew the sentiment strip would be straight.
- I added the dry-embossed panel with the sentiment to a white, textured cardstock card base.
- I die-cut the bunny and flower with dies in the Open House Spring set. You can see additional cards featuring this set here and here. I added the elements to the card base.
Find more Embossing Folder Kit Club inspiration here. The embossing folder, measuring 5.5 x 8.5 inches, can be used to make cards in a variety of sizes including slimline, mini-slimline, 5 x 7, and A2.
