Cardmaking and Scrapbooking with Jean Manis
Hello! I am delighted to be sharing three friendship cards created with products from the Truly Yours Collection at Spellbinders.
On the first card, I paired the Bouquet of Flowers (retired) die set with a glimmer-foiled sentiment in the Mini Sincere Sentiments set.
On my additional cards, I used printed elements from the Reaching Out Collection (American Crafts) with flowers cut using dies in the Bouquet of Flowers (retired) set and a sentiment in the Mini Sincere Sentiments set.

Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS friendship card created with the June Large Die of the Month kit from Spellbinders – “Geometrical Floral Frames.” (Edited: This die set is no longer available.)
On my card, I used one of the frames in the set along with the flowers and foliage.

Hello! Today, I am sharing two cards created with the December Small Die of the Month kit from Spellbinders – “Our Favorite Font Sentiment Set.”
The set includes fourteen word dies, in a versatile font, with which you can create a variety of expressions for a number of occasions such as: “Thinking of You,” “With Sympathy,” “Birthday Wishes to You,” and “Congrats to You,” as well as the more obvious “Thank You,” “Love You,” and “Happy Birthday.”
My first card is a Valentine, which includes several other Spellbinders sets, on which I used the “Love You” sentiment.
I’ve combined the Tux set (he’s still wearing a scarf but I removed his ear muffs) with the First Crush die set (balloon). I created the heart panel with the largest die in the Nestabilities Class Heart set. The card measures 4 1/2″ square.
My second card is a Thank You note on which I combined the sentiment with the Butterfly Frame-A-Long die set.
I dry-embossed the background (measuring 4 1/4″ square) with the Pretty Plaid embossing folder. I created a frame by adhering the butterfly/flower strips together at the corners; I then added the flower overlays, cut from yellow cardstock. I glued pearls to the centers of the flowers for embellishment.
Hello! Today, I am sharing a CAS Thank You card created with the Tulip Flower Frame Card Creator die set designed by Maria Job for Spellbinders. I previously shared cards created with the set in this post.
I specifically wanted to use patterned paper on the card base as this particular “cover plate” die has an ample amount of open space. Once I cut the frame and placed it over the patterned paper, I decided that some of the tulips in the frame should be filled in, which I did with the inlay method.
I heat-embossed a sentiment from the Everyday Script set and cut it with its coordinating die. I cut circles from both red and cream cardstock, which I adhered to the card center. I adhered the sentiment to the circles with foam adhesive.
Thanks so much for dropping by!
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 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.
Thanks for stopping by! Vroom!
