Spellbinders | Tropical Fun

Hello! Today’s card brings a burst of tropical fun featuring the May 2026 Large Die Kit Club from Spellbinders. I created a bright, playful scene featuring a cheerful parrot paired with a soda can, a colorful fruit skewer, and a tiny umbrella for that extra island touch. The embossed background helps set the tone with added texture. Finished with a BetterPress sentiment, the card has a lighthearted, vacation-inspired feel.

Spellbinders | Bears on Vacation

Hello! Today’s A2-size card features the Spellbinders May 2026 Small Die of the Month set, with two adorable die-cut bears and a suitcase creating a sweet little scene (the kit also includes a cat). I used oval dies to focus attention on the focal point and added patterned paper for extra interest. The sentiment BetterPress “Hello Sweet Friend” finishes the card perfectly, making this a simple, cheerful design for sending a thoughtful note.

Spellbinders | Market Shopping

Hello! Today, I am sharing a card created with this month’s Large Die of the Month Kit at Spellbinders. The shopping bag filled with produce, flowers, bread, milk, and cheese has a French market feel that makes it easy to build a scene full of everyday beauty. For this card, I used patterned paper for the bag to add a bit of personality and set it against a dry-embossed background for a soft texture.

    • Dry-emboss an A2-size cardstock panel and add it to a card base.
    • With dies in the Large Die of the Month Kit, cut the shopping bag pieces from patterned paper. Add the back piece to the card base. I cut the front panel 1/2″ longer than the amount shown. I scored the panel twice and adhered a 1/4″ flap to the back of the card. By doing so, I created a bottom for the bag.
    • With dies in the Large Die of the Month Kit, cut the shopping bag contents and assemble as required. Add to the inside of the bag.
    • Better Press the sentiment and cut with its coordinating die. Add to the front of the shopping bag.
    • Adhere the bag closed with foam square adhesive.
