Spellbinders | January 2023 Clubs Inspiration Blog Hop

Hello! I am delighted to be participating in a blog hop celebrating the Spellbinders January 2023 Club Subscriptions. You should have reached me from the blog of Jennifer Kotas. (The entire list of participants is included at the end of my post.) For the hop, I created two cards featuring products included in the January 2023 Large Die of the Month, the Happy Plant die set, and the Quick & Easy Card Kit.

Please note: the Large Die, Stitching Die, and 3D Embossing Folder of the Month Clubs are sold out. Be sure to join in February so you won’t miss out on the new designs.

Spellbinders is giving away a $25 gift certificate to three lucky blog readers – selected from the comments on the Spellbinders blog. Giveaway closes on Sunday, January 22, 11:59 pm MST. The winner will be announced in the blog hop post the following Wednesday. The winner is responsible for shipping cost, duties and taxes. Please note, store credit (gift certificate) cannot be applied to Club Subscriptions; store credit can be applied to shop past Club products, Club extras, and regular releases.

My floral friendship card showcases blooms created with the Large Die of the Month set planted in a pot cut from Brushed Gold with a die in the Happy Plant die set. I glimmer-foiled a sentiment in Gold using a plate in the Inside Card Glimmer Sentiments set. The Glacier background was dry-embossed with the Intertwined Lattice folder. I added Gold Mix Gems for embellishment.

To play on the plant theme of the Quick & Easy Card Kit, I created a greenhouse (draw freehand or create with a drawing program). I cut the greenhouse and adhered it to a textured white card base. I added the elements to the scene using foam adhesive for extra dimension for some of the elements. I added a sentiment and enamel dots included in the kit.

Looking for more inspiration? I previously used the Large Die of the Month here, the Quick & Easy Card Kit here, and the Happy Plant die set here.

Enjoy the Ride – Spellbinders May 2019 Small Die of the Month

Hello! Happy May! Today, I am sharing two CAS projects created with this month’s Small Die of the Month die set “Enjoy the Ride” from Spellbinders.

For my first card, I created a sky/road scene with a pink scooter using letters in the set for the “Ciao” sentiment and balloons (die in the set) tied to the back of the scooter.

I dry-embossed the roadway piece (gray cardstock) with the Beach Towel Embossing Folder.
I cut the “Ciao” sentiment from white cardstock and adhered it to the roadway with liquid adhesive using the dry-embossing lines as a guide for the letters.
I cut the scooter out and assembled it with liquid adhesive and tape.
I added embroidery floss to the balloons, cut from several shades of pink, and attached them to the sky background with dot and foam adhesive. I taped the strings to the sky background making sure that they would be covered by the back of the scooter. I attached the scooter to the scene with dot adhesive.

I love using color and repetition on card designs, so for my second project, which measures 6 1/2″ x 3 3/4″, I created three scooters in bright colors.

I created the Go sentiments on my computer and printed them on white cardstock.
I cut and assembled the scooters from brightly colored cardstock.
I added a strip of washi paper to the right side of the card base to emphasize the road/transportation theme.
I adhered the scooters to the scene with dot adhesive.

Thanks for stopping by! Vroom!
