Spellbinder Release Day 2 - More fun Cards and Products!

  Today is day 2 of the Spellbinder release for August.  In celebration of that, I have created two cards using products from the Holiday Hugs Collection from Stampendous.  I love how these cards tuned out and hope you do to!

This first card started with an A2 card base.  I then added mats of brushed gold and a cute polka dot paper with gold dots.  I cut out the Santa Clause using traditional colors and then cut out Rudolph from some tan, brown, and green papers.  I colored his red nose using a copic marker. They were all glued onto the front of  the card.  The sentiment I chose was also a new release item, It was the comfort and Joy Glimmer Plate which was foiled using gold foil and attached to the front of the card using foam squares.  

The next card is equally as cute and features the Snowman Hugs from the same Stampendous Collection.

I kinda knew right away that I wanted him to peak out of an oval.  So I started with an A2 card base.  I chose some cute snowflake paper from my stash and chose one of the colors (teal) as a background mat.  I then cut the oval using the Essential Stylish Ovals.  I assembled the snowman using colored taken from the snowflake paper and glued him so that he was reaching out of the oval.  I cu out the candycane and colored it with copic markers.  I again used a sentiment from this release and popped it up the same as I did for the first card. 

I hope that you like both cards and would love to hear which one is your favorite!  Let me know in the comments below.  I hope they inspire you and that you will take a look at this huge release!  There are so many new products to choose from.  To check out all the newly released products, simply click here.

Release Day at Spellbinders - Lots of new products!

 Today is the 10th of the month and that means that Spellbinders is releasing it's new products.  There are so many this month you have got to check it out!  There is something for everyone!  You can see them all here.

For the next three days, I will be showing off some of the items from several collections.  Today I am featuring the Glimmer for the Holidays collection.  I received the Swirling Foliage Tree and the Comfort and Joy Sentiments and created this fun, pretty Christmas card.  

This card was so fun to make and I knew what I wanted to do as soon as I received the glimmer plate.  I started with a 5x7 card base.  To this I added a piece of green cardstock that I glimmered with gold foil.  This was then attached to the card base.  Next, I cut a piece of white and mirrored gold cardstock using the Essential Stylish Ovals dies.  I cut the white one slightly larger so that my tree would have a gold frame around it.  I then took the piece of white cardstock and embossed it using the Holly Flourish embossing folder.  The gold and white pieces were glued together and popped up on the green front piece using foam squares.  The sentiment was foiled onto white cardstock using gold foil and cut with the coordinating dies.  This was also popped up across the front of the tree.  As a final touch, I added a red and green plaid bow to the bottom center of the oval.

I hope this card will inspire you to check out the Glimmer for the Holidays collection for yourself along with all the other wonderful collections being released today!  Be sure and check back for the next two days as I will be featuring two more collections from this release.

Spellbinder's Clear Stamp and Die of the Month Shaker Card

 Hello and Welcome!  Today I am featuring a card that uses the clear stamp and die of the month for June 2023.  I chose the images from the set that I wanted to use and colored them with copic markers.  They were then cut using the matching die se. 

To create the card, I started with an A2 card base.  I then added a mat of dark blue cardstock.  As I said before, the images were stamped and colored with Copic markers and then applied to the dark blue cardstock.  I took a piece of light blue cardstock and stenciled bubbles onto it using some blue ink from my stash.  I cut it out using the Postage Stamp die set and glued a piece of acetate to the back side of it and added some foam squares for depth.  Before placing on card, I added some blue and silver sequins for shaky bits and attached the acetate piece to the card front.  Finally I stamped the sentiment from the same set in the same blue ink as I used for the bubbles.  It was then cutout and applied in the upper left corner.  

I was going for a window into the ocean look which I think I achieved.  I hope you enjoy this card and stamp and die set.  Please be sure to check back tomorrow to see the final club kit I will be featuring!  To check out all of this month's awesome kits, just click here.
