Spellbinders - Right as Rain

Spellbinders | Santa Mug

Nothing says Christmas quite like Santa himself, and this handmade card brings him to life in the most festive way—a Santa-shaped mug created with the Cocoa Greetings die set (Spellbinders July 2025 Die of the Month kit). A Christmas-themed patterned paper background and a seasonal sentiment complete the design.

- Cut patterned paper with the Bow & Bell Scallop Frame set and add scalloped mat to an A2-size card base.
- Cut Santa with dies in the Cocoa Greetings set. Assemble.
- Press sentiment and cut with coordinating die.
- Add Santa and sentiment to prepared card base with foam.

Spellbinders | Charming Halloween Card

Hello! Today, I’m sharing a playful Halloween card created with the Small Die of the Month for September from Spellbinders. A black cat peeks out from a pumpkin while friendly ghosts float nearby, surrounded by colorful flowers. This combination of classic Halloween icons with soft floral details makes for a card that’s charming and spooky.

- Dry-emboss Waterfall cardstock with the Tiny Dots folder and add to an A2-size card base.
- Cut Bristol paper with the Small Die set and color with Distress Oxide inks. Assemble.
- Stamp and cut the sentiment with the September Stamp & Die of the Month.
- Add assembled items to prepared card base with glue and foam adhesive.

Spellbinders | Whimsical Fall-themed Card

Hello! Fall is the perfect season for cozy, storybook-inspired designs, and the September Large Die of the Month from Spellbinders captures that magic beautifully. I created a card featuring a squirrel holding an acorn outside his tiny acorn-shaped house. Surrounded by colorful fall foliage, the scene feels straight out of a woodland fairy tale. The sweet sentiment, “May your fall be full of quiet wonder,” ties it all together for a card that celebrates the gentle joys of autumn.

- Dry-emboss Teal Topaz cardstock with the Tiny Dots folder and add to an A2-size card base.
- Stamp and cut the sentiment with the Clear Stamp Set and Coordinating Die set.
- Cut the house, foliage, and squirrel with the Large Die of the Month dies from Bristol paper and color with Distress Oxide inks. Assemble.
- Add items to card base with glue and foam adhesive.

Spellbinders | A Ghostly Twist

Hello! Sometimes the best card ideas come from looking at supplies in a new way. I thought it would be fun to pair supplies from Spellbinders, a ghost with a house die set originally designed for Christmas. I’m sure I’m not the first to turn this townhome into a haunted house, but it was such a delight to see how easily it shifted seasons. A BetterPress sentiment finished the scene.

You can see the Christmas card created with the City Holiday set HERE and the card with the Boo Crew set HERE.
