Spellbinders - Right as Rain

Spellbinders | You’re Pure Classic!

For this playful Father’s Day card, I reached for the Spellbinders March Large Die of the Month Kit and leaned into a theme that feels perfectly “Dad.” What’s great about this die set is that it’s versatile enough to create a feminine card as well!

Classic sneakers take center stage, paired with grill implements, a mustard bottle, and a hot dog for a fun backyard vibe. I set the scene against a BetterPress dot grunge background, which adds texture and energy. The sentiment ties everything together and celebrates that timeless dad style. What is great about the is there’s a way to make a feminine card as well!

- Press the background with blue ink on Malibu cardstock. Trim and add panel to an A-2 size card base. Press the sentiment with the same set and trim.
- Cut the sneakers, grill tools, condiment bottle, and hotdog with dies in the March Large Die of the Month Kit from a variety of cardstock colors. Assemble.
- Add the assembled items and sentiment to the prepared card base with glue and foam squares.

Spellbinders | Easter Birthday Card

Hello! A birthday during the Easter season calls for a mashup of spring and celebration. This card combines a variety of Spellbinders supplies including the recently released Bunny Buddies set. I know many of you enjoy seeing how versatile these sets can be. I’ve shared other mashups featuring Simon Hurley designs before, and once again this card shows how easily these pieces can stretch beyond a single holiday or occasion.

- To begin, cover an A2-size card base with patterned paper (Echo Park Party Animal).
- Cut Cascade cardstock with the largest die in the Mirrored Arch Labels set and dry-emboss with the Floating Balloons folder. Add to the card base.
- Cut the frame with the Memory Frames die and back with patterned paper (Carta Bella They Say It’s Your Birthday). Add to the card.
- Cut the balloon with the smallest balloon die in the Color Block Balloons set. Assemble.
- Cut the sentiment banner, package, and party hat with dies in the Birthday Bear set. Assemble.
- Cut the bunny with the Bunny Buddies set. Assemble. I previously shared a card with the Bunny Buddies die set HERE.
- Add assembled elements to the prepared card with foam and dot adhesive.

Spellbinders | Framed Blooms

Hello! Sometimes the most meaningful cards are the ones sent for no reason at all. Today’s card features the Spellbinders All Clubs Crate Exclusive Item for February 2026. I arranged the flowers against a dry-embossed panel for subtle texture and added a die-cut frame. I finished the design with a letterpress sentiment. This is a versatile design that feels thoughtful without being tied to any specific occasion.

- Dry-emboss a 5″ x 7″ Mint cardstock panel with the Distress Mix folder. Add to a card base.
- With the Exclusive die set, cut the blooms and foliage; assemble. I cut the detailed piece twice. For the bottom layer, I taped the pieces on the back and then glued on the top layer.
- Arrange the blooms to the dry-embossed panel.
- With a die in the Mirrored Arch Labels set, cut a frame from a 5″ x 7″ white cardstock panel. Add to the assembly with foam adhesive.
- Press the You are Everything sentiment and cut with the coordinating die. Add to the card with foam adhesive.

Spellbinders | Easter Church Scene

Hello! For today’s card, I created an Easter scene using the Spellbinders All Clubs Crate Bonus Item for February 2026. Framed with arch dies and finished with a banner sentiment, the card design speaks softly but carries deep meaning.

- Cover an A2-size card base with patterned paper.
- Cut an arch mat with a die in the Essential Arches set.
- With the next smaller Essential Arches die, cut an arch for the sky. Use the sentiment die in Bunny Buddies to cut the sentiment. Add to the larger arch mat. Use the same smaller arch die to cut cardstock for the clouds, hill, and grass. Cut those elements with dies in the Landscape Edges set. Once cut, add to the sky arch assembly.
- Cut the church with the All-Clubs Crate Bonus Item set; assemble. Add to the scene.
- Embellish with flowers cut with dies in the Bunny Buddies set.

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.
