Spellbinders - Right as Rain

Spellbinders | Made With Love

Hello! For today’s card, I used products in the Spellbinders Make It and Bake It Collection to build a die-cut design featuring a kitchen apron, coordinating potholders, and a cookie. The sentiment, “Made With Love,” ties it all together, and the dry-embossed background adds texture and reinforces the baking theme.

- Cover an A2-size card base with Mom’s Kitchen patterned paper.
- Cut Mint cardstock with the largest die in the Mirrored Arch Labels set and dry-emboss with the Confection Companions folder.
- With the Made With Love dies, cut the apron, potholders, cookie, and sentiment from cardstock and assemble.
- Add to the prepared base.

This design would be perfect tucked into a plate of homemade cookies for a neighbor, added to a hostess gift, or slipped into a care package for a college student who misses home. The sentiment also makes it a thoughtful Valentine for a husband, friend, granddaughter, or anyone who connects love with time spent in the kitchen.

Spellbinders | Spring Wheelbarrow

Hello! Spring (or the thought of spring!) is the perfect excuse to gather all the cheerful details of the season into one delightful scene. For this card, I used the Spellbinders Small Die of the Month to create a wheelbarrow brimming with Easter eggs, a bunny, carrots, and tulips in soft spring hues. The die-cut “Happy Spring” banner adds a finishing touch, while a dry-embossed panel and coordinating patterned paper bring visual interest.

- Cover an A2-size card base with patterned paper.
- Cut mats with dies in the Mirrored Arch Label sets. Dry-emboss the smaller one with the February Embossing Folder. Attach to the prepared base.
- Use the Bunny Buddies die set to cut the sentiment banner.
- With the Small Die set, cut the wheelbarrow, greenery, eggs, and bunny. Assemble and add to the dry-embossed panel.

Spellbinders | Bunny Buddies Easter Card

Hello! There’s a timeless appeal to a sweet bunny holding an Easter egg, especially when it’s brought to life in pastel shades. Today I’m sharing a card featuring the Spellbinders Simon Hurley Bunny Buddies die set, paired with coordinating patterned papers to tie everything together. The die-cut “Happy Easter” banner adds a finishing touch, making this design perfect for sending a thoughtful spring greeting.

- Cover an A2-size card base with patterned paper. Use the Mirrored Arch Label dies to cut layers to showcase the bunny.
- With the Bunny Buddies die set, cut the bunny, egg, butterfly, flowers, and banner sentiment from cardstock. (I took my color cues from the background patterned paper.) Assemble.
- Add elements to prepared card base.

Spellbinders | Whimsical Easter Bunny

Hello! Easter cards don’t always have to be pastel-perfect or overly precious, sometimes they’re at their best with a touch of personality. For this card, I used the Spellbinders Large Die Kit Club along with the February 2D Embossing Folder to create a charming bunny. With the “Happy Easter” glasses, scarf, and a crown of spring flowers, this bunny has just the right mix of humor and elegance!

- Dry-emboss an A2-size Lavender cardstock panel with the 2D Embossing Folder of the month. add to a card base.
- Cut the bunny with dies in the Large Die of the Month set from a variety of cardstock colors and patterned paper; assemble.
- Add the bunny to the prepared card base.

With Easter coming up on April 5, you might be thinking about which friends or family members you’ll be sending cards to this year. This bunny card comes together easily, and a simple change of colors lets you tailor the look for each recipient.
