Hello! Today I am delighted to share two cards – wedding and birthday – created with the new Spellbinders Sunday Drive die set and the Hitched add-on die set.
The Sunday Drive set includes the pieces to create the convertible car, as well as balloons, HAPPY letter dies, a package, and a Birthday license plate.
I couldn’t resist creating a red convertible and used primary colors to tie in with the patterned paper.
The Hitched die set works with the Sunday Drive set to create a wedding card. I used the flowers and foliage from the set, along with dies from the April Small Die of the Month set to cut the heart balloons. The set also includes dies to add tin cans to the bumper, which I didn’t use.
I glued strands of floss behind the balloons and tucked the strings in between layers on the car.

Hello! Today I am sharing two elegant CAS cards created with die sets from the Flourished Fretwork collection by Becca Feeken at Spellbinders.
I created my first card with the Oval Coronet set. The set includes five dies: a small oval (which I didn’t use), an ornate oval overlay, a solid oval of the same size, an ornate base oval, and a base oval of the same size.
I cut the ornate elements from Whip Cream cardstock. I cut the background of the small oval from Robin’s Egg cardstock and the base background from Calypso Coral cardstock. I stamped the sentiment in gold ink in the center of the top oval. I dry-embossed the Petal Pink background with the Inspire embossing folder. I added flowers created with a die in the Floral Tiara Topper set, to which I adhered centers punched with a hole punch from Brush Gold cardstock.
On my second card I used the Richelieu Square set.
The Richelieu Square die set includes six dies: an ornate circle, a circle die of the same size without detail, an ornate square, a square die of the same size without detail, and a 4.4″ square border die, and a square die of the same size. I cut the ornate pieces from Whip Cream cardstock. The background of the circle and large square were cut from Calypso Coral and the smaller rectangle from Robin’s Egg cardstock. I left off a front sentiment to allow the ornate elements speak for themselves.

Hello! I created a CAS card for the current Paper Smooches challenge whose theme is HAPPY.
I used the Polaroid die set and a sentiment from the We Totally Click stamp set. I have had these products for a long time. I use the Polaroid frame frequently, however, I’m not sure I’ve ever used the Polaroid camera.
I originally created a card with just the camera and found it didn’t click (pun intended). I found a photo of my youngest son and my husband that I printed on my computer to fit within the frame. I used a patterned paper from the Authentique Hooray pad as the background.
