Spellbinders | December 2022 Large Die + Embossing Folder – Another Take

Hello! Today, I am sharing another Valentine’s Day/love-themed card created with the Spellbinders December 2022 Large Die “Blooming Heart” and Embossing Folder “Heart Blooms.” I previously shared a card here created with these two items. This design was inspired by the “I Love Lucy” heart, even though it does not look like it!

I created a 5 1/4 inch square card base from Brushed Gold cardstock. I dry-embossed a pearl finish white cardstock with the Embossing Folder, trimmed it, and added it to the base.
I cut the Large Die heart from dark red cardstock and the left floral element from gold glitter foam and Brushed Gold cardstock. The Brushed Gold cardstock nicely shows the die detail. I adhered the Brushed Gold element to the glitter foam piece for depth.
I cut the sentiment from the pearl finish white cardstock.
I added the floral piece and sentiment to the heart, added the heart to the background, and embellished with Gold Mix Gems.

Spellbinders | Advent Calendar Day Two

Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS friendship card created with the Day Two surprise in the Crafty Advent Calendar from Spellbinders– a stamp set with flowers and a sentiment. Follow along on the Spellbinders blog for daily inspiration.

I created a card background from Lilac Blossom cardstock dry-embossed with the Puff Dotty folder.
I stamped the floral images and sentiment on Snowdrift cardstock, trimmed it with a die in the Essential Rectangles set.
