Spellbinders | All the Tools

Hello! Today I am sharing a card showcasing the brand-new All the Tools die set at Spellbinders, part of the Toolbox Essentials Collection. There are a number of tools in this set – my card features just a few of them. Change the cardstock colors of the tool handles for a completely different look. The collection works for a number of occasions including Father’s Day, “thanks,” and “congratulations.”

Stamp A Cut Above the Rest sentiment on Sea Glass cardstock; trim panel and add to A2-size card base.
Cut tools from with All the Tools dies from a variety of cardstock colors; assemble.
Add tools to card front with foam adhesive. Embellish with stars cut from Brushed Silver cardstock with dies in the Bottle Brush Trees and Liberty Sunday Drive sets.

Therm O Foil | Rainbows Galore

I have been wanting to play with Therm O Web products after seeing projects on their blog and the Facebook group Therm O Web Craft Room. They have a terrific YouTube channel as well. Today, I am sharing two quick-and-easy encouragement cards using the Rainbows Galore toner panel.

Foil Rainbows Galore toner panel with Rainbow Deco Foil. For my Mini Minc laminator (6″ Foil Applicator), I set the heat to 5 (the highest setting) and let the machine warm up for at least 20 minutes.
For the second foiled background, use the leftover foil with a Toner Sheet.
Trim Rainbows Galore panels to 4 inches by 5 1/4 inches and add to A2-size Black Matte cardstock. Add to card bases.
Stamp Simon Says Stamp You Got This sentiment (an older sentiment which is still available) in black ink on white cardstock. For second card, heat-emboss the sentiment in white on Black Matte cardstock. Cut sentiments with banner die and trim to 3-inch width. Add sentiments to card fronts with foam adhesive.

Penny Black | Dance in the Rain

Hello! Today I am sharing a friendship card created with Penny Black supplies featuring a water-colored image from the Dance in the Rain stamp set. I recently shared a card created with the same stamp set here. I have been playing with a variety of watercolor mediums as of late.

Stamp Dance in the Rain image with VersaFine ink on Arches Cold Press watercolor paper.
Color with watercolor mediums of choice. I used Zig and Tombow markers, as well as Distress Ink. Set aside to dry.
Stamp image on Masking Paper, fussy cut, apply mask to image and color background with Tumbled Glass ink.
Cut frame with Penny Black Polaroid die and frame watercolored image.
Cut sentiment with Hooray die set from Black Matte Alcohol Ink cardstock and add to Polaroid frame.
To create the background, stamp Dots in Space with Dandelion ink on yellow cardstock. Add A2 panel to card base and add assembled image to center.

Spellbinders | March 2023 Quick & Easy Card Kit

Hello! I am sharing four cards created with the Spellbinders March 2023 Quick & Easy Card Kit of the Month. The “Bee Yourself” kit includes 6×6 patterned paper, die cut shapes, sticker sentiments, embellishments, card bases, sequins, and more!

Add visual interest with the background patterned paper by cutting it with dies in the Essential Rectangles set. The dot pattern adds a delicate border that suits the card theme.

Use the sequins included in the kit for a shaker card. With a die in the Essential Arches set, cut an arch from patterned paper and again from two layers of glitter foam. Sandwich the assembly with a sheet of acetate between the patterned paper on the front and the foam. Back the assembly, after adding the sequins, with patterned paper and a card base. Affix elements to acetate and the card front.

Add sequins as an embellishment for visual interest.

With a die in the Essential Ovals set, cut an oval from cardstock included in the kit to ground the focal elements against the patterned paper background.
