Beach and Rainbow Cards for Spellbinders

The July Spellbinders Quick & Easy Club Card Kit is out and you can join the club today! I have four cards to share with you featuring this months kit, "Sweet & Cool". This kit has all the summer themed elements you could want. Enough to make 8 cards and have lots of leftovers too! If you like to tear paper, stick around!

One of my favorite things to do for beach cards is tear paper. It makes water look wavy and sand, more textured. For my beach themed card above, I trimmed some blue/green patterned paper from the kit for water then tore some of the beige patterned paper. It definitely adds more interest to the scene don't you think? It's one of the easiest things you can do to add a little extra something to a card. Also, if you're needing to relieve a little stress, hey, tearing paper helps, haha!

The kit elements for the card above include:

Patterned paper

Enamel dots

Ephemera/die cuts

White card panel

Puffy sticker sentiment

Card/adhesive

We have some amazing beaches on the Gulf in my home state. You're bound to see beach houses on stilts. I thought these cool,sketchy house die cuts from the kit should be popped up on stilts! I trimmed the beige patterned paper in the kit to create a boardwalk and stilts, with a pretty, wavy walkway in pink. The patterned fish paper worked perfectly for my scene as well.

Kit elements for the card above include:

Patterned paper

Chipboard heart sticker

Die Cuts

Next up, I have an ocean themed scenic card. Again, I'm tearing paper which makes it look like waves. It's such a fun effect! I've popped up my fish die cuts from the kit on adhesive foam squares, along with my clouds. The other elements are adhered directly to my card. I used some of the enamel dots as bubbles for my fish.

Kit elements for this card include:

Patterned paper

Die Cuts

Chipboard stickers

Puffy sentiment stickers

Enamel Dots

Card/adhesive

There are lots of elements in this kit that are not beach themed, including ice cream, florals, rainbows and more. I decided to do a rainbow themed card with lots of white space. My rainbow focal point includes a background of patterned paper trimmed to a square, with a trimmed white card panel and rainbow die cut also mounted on adhesive foam. I added some enamel dots varying the colors across the top of the rainbow and added a couple chipboard sentiment stickers. This colorful card definitely gives me all the smiles!
