Last Reveal for Me - EOM -OCT 24 -Embossing Folder - Checkered Argyle

 Today is the final day of Spellbinders monthly club reveals for me.  But there are more clubs  available!  This last club is the Embossing Folder of the Month for Oct. of 2024 entitled Checkered Argyle.  I decided to make a masculine thank you card for this particular reveal.  You could use any colors you want to make it a more feminine card.  

To create this card, I started with a cream colored A2 Card base.  I then added a tan color embossed mat measuring 5.25 x 4 inches and added that to the center of the card front.  Then I cut a rectangle of dark brown cardstock and then a smaller rectangle of a lighter corregated cardstock for some texture.  The sentiment was foiled using Espresso Bean Foil and was foiled and cut from last months glimmer of the month called Friendly Thanks.

As a final embellishment, I added some natural twine and tied it in a bow.  That is it.  A Clean and Simple Thank You card for any man in your life.  To see all of the club kits Spellbinders has to offer, simply click here .

Day Seven, but 6th club kit reveal = STDOM -OCT 24 Bright and Merry Cloche

I decided to take yesterday off and didn't do a club reveal, so today I am actually sharing the 5th reveal which will be the STDOM-Oct 24 from Spellbinders entitled Merry and Bright Cloche.  A really pretty set which is super easy to stitch and create a card.  

I started this card with an A2 cardbase.  I then added a mat of holographic red paper for some pizazz.  This was cut to 5.25 x 4 inches and centered on the front of the card.  The cloche was first cut from white, then blue cardstock to give the appearance of snow.  The tree was cut from green and stitched with green embroidery thread.   It was then glued to a yellow star and a dark orange pot.  It was then attached to the base from which the sentiment was cut.  I the added the scalloped base with white cardstock and stitched it with white thread.  All was then assembled and glued to the center of the red holographic paper.

A super easy stitched Christmas card that makes up quickly and will add a great statement to any Christmas card.  To see all the club kits Spellbinders offers, simply click here.

Day Five - Monthly Club Kit Oct 24 - 3D Embossing folder

 Here is a super great 3D embossing folder for Christmas from Spellbinders.  It is the 3DEOM-OCT 24 entitled Joyful Candy Canes and features beautiful candy canes poinsettias, holly sprigs and more all in a 3D format.  Here is the card I made using this folder:

To create this card, I started with an A2 card base.  I then embossed a piece of green cardstock to which I cut to measure 5.25 x 4 inches and added it to the center front of the base card.   I also used the Large Die of the Month for Oct. 24 entitled Cozy Toe Slippers and used just the three Christmas/Winter themed slipper heads to add to the front of the card.  Santa was glued and the reindeer and penguin were popped up using foam squares.

Finally I added the sentiment using the Classic Happy Holidays die set using red cardstock.  I think this made a cute and festive holiday card.  To see all the club kits that spellbinders has this month simply click here.  

All clubs and subscriptions will be available to purchase or subscribe on October 6th.  Please be sure to stop back tomorrow when I will have another great club kit to share with you!

Day Four- Monthly Club Kit Die of the Month - Festive Friends

 Today I will be featuring the Die of the Month club kit for October 2024 from Spellbinders.  It is called Festive friends and features a cute bear and a penguin along with a string of colorful lights.  Here is the card I decided to create using this fabulous club kit.  

To create this wonderful card, I started with an A2 card base which I oriented to the side so that it was a top fold card.  Then I added a piece of colorful printed paper in green with snowflakes which was cut to 5.25 x 4.00 inches and attached to the front of the card centering it.  I then decided to create a polar bear using white and light grey colors for my bear.  I assembled him and have him a red scarf.  He was then attached to the front of the card and the lights were wrapped around him.  I cut the strings of lights using black cardstock and glued assorted colors of bulbs to the string.  I decide to have the penguin swinging from the lights so I cut out and assembled him and glued him to the front also.

I sued an older glimmer set called Snow Garden Sentiments and foiled it using gold foil and my glimmer hot foil system.  Then I glued it to the front of the card.  It created a cute and fun Holiday card!  I hope you will consider this club kit and create many Christmas cards to give to friends and family.  The kit will be ready to subscribe, purchase on October 6th so be sure to mark your calendars.  Be sure to check back tomorrow as I will be adding another great club kit from Spellbinders.  To see all of the clubs available this month, simply click here.

Day Three - Monthly Club Kits Cozy Toes Slippers

 Today is the third day of Spellbinders new monthly club kit releases for October 2024.  Today I am  showing off the Large Die of The Month Club Kit entitled Cozy Toes Slippers which looks as though someone is wearing a pair of character slippers.  This kit comes complete with a santa, penguin, bunny, and reindeer characters to make several different types of slippers.  For this particular card, I decided to use the Santa to make a pair of slippers.

This is such a cute die set, I couldn't wait to create with it.  First I started with an A2 card base to which I added an olive green cardstock background.  I wanted a green that would go with the green in the pajama pants.  I used it as a mat by cutting it to 5.25 x 4 inches and attaching it centered on the  front of the card.

I then had some cute plaid paper that I used for the pajama bottoms.  The paper has some glitter in the red squares which made them look kind of Christmasy.  I the added the legs and created the slippers using the santa face.  I popped up the santa face so that the slippers appeared to be 3 dimensional. 

Finally, I added the sentiment which also came with the kit by first cutting the flag with brushed gold cardstock and then cutting out the flag and words with white.  When glued together the gold lettering showed thru.  It was then popped up and centered across the center of the card.

I hope you like this card!  I had so much fun making it.  I know you would love to add this kit to your stash.  It will become available for either sale or subscription on October 6th, so be sure to mark your calendar! Also, you are going to want to mark your calendar for tomorrow to check back and see another great club kit from Spellbinders.  To see all the kits available this month simply click here.

Day Two. Monthly Club Kits - Festive Lights

 Today is October 2nd and that means another Spellbinders club kit feature.  Today I am using the Glimmer of the month club kit entitled Festive Lights.  This also comes with some Speckled Aura Foil.  I am sure you will love this kit as much as I do.  Be sure to check back tomorrow as I will be featuring another of Spellbinders Club Kits.  Here is my sample card 

I started this card by glimmering the design onto some white card stock using the attached speckled aura foil.  This was then cut into an oval shape using the fluted classic ovals.  I then colored the lightbulbs using my copic markers.  This oval was then placed on a red cardstock oval cut using the Fluted Classic ovals again.

I cut some pretty gold striped paper 5.25 x 4 inches and then centered it on the front of a top folding A2 size card.  Then I cut a piece of green gingham paper 5.0 x 3.35 inches and centered it over the striped paper.  The ovals were then attached to the card front, centered, side to side and more to the top of the card.

The sentiment was glimmered from the same set using the enclosed speckled aura foil.  It was then cut out with the included die and attached to the bottom of the card.

If you like this kit, you can purchase it or subscribe to it monthly after October 6th.  You can see all the club kits that Spellbinders offer by clicking here.

Day one. Monthly Club Kits - Festive Friends

 Well here it is the 1st of October and that means it is the release day for all of Spellbinders Monthly Club kits.  I will be showing several of the club kits in the next few days.  So please stop back to see the other clubs I have to feature.  Today I will be featuring the clear stamp and die of the month club entitled Festive Friends.  This club includes both the stamps and matching dies.  Here is the card I created:

To create this card, I started by stamping the images onto some X-press it cardstock using momento black ink so that I could color them using my copic markers.  I highlighted some of the areas using a white gel pen.  These were then die cut using the matching dies.  

Then I chose a white A2 card base that I used horizontally (the fold at the top).  I then added a mat which measured 5.25 x 4.0 inches and centered that onto the card base.  I then found some pretty printed paper with silver accents.  I cut that to measure 5.0 x 3.75 inches and centered it over the dark blue cardstock.  Then I cut a mirrored silver piece of cardstock using the Fluted Classic Oval die set.  This was then centered on the front of the card.  A dark blue oval was also cut using the same die set to fit just inside the silver oval.  I then added some white glitter paper to represent a snowy ground. Three of the images were then added to the dark blue oval.  I used  the teddy bear and the snowman, both were glued to the front of the card within the oval.  The penguin was placed in front of the other two using foam squares to pop him u p and give some dimension to the characters.  The falling snow was then added using the white gel pen.

The sentiment also came from this set and was stamped with versa fine clair nocturn ink and cut using the monthly club kit.  It was then framed on dark blue cardstock and popped up over the oval using more foam squares.

As a final touch I found some dark blue enamel dots in my stash which worked perfectly to add to the front of the printed cardstock.

I hope you like this card example.   I am sure you would love to add this set to your stash.  It will be ready for retail purchase on the sixth of this month, so be sure to mark your calendar!  I have listed all the supplies I used below so that you can make this card for yourself!  To see all the club kits Spellbinders has to offer simply click here.
