For my first card, I was inspired by those adorable frogs; the handsome Prince Charming and his Princess! I wanted to create a pond scene and thankfully, all the elements that I needed were there. Spellbinders thought of everything! That patterned paper looks like a wood grain design, one of the selections in this months kit, I thought it would make an awesome pond for layering the rest of my die cuts. It definitely passes for swirling water!

This card features these elements from the kit: patterned paper, die cuts, puffy sticker sentiments, chipboard embellishments, and of the course the adhesives and A2 card.

Home is our happy place and I wanted to create a simple card that can be put together quickly. This card features some embossing on a white card panel using the 3D Circle Illusion embossing folder, run through my Platinum 6 die cut machine. I was thrilled to see white card panels included in this months kit because I love a lot of white space.

This card would be lovely to send a friend moving into a new home or simply to remind a friend or loved one how important family is to you. This card features these items from the kit: patterned paper, chipboard elements, and die cuts.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Everyone who know me, knows my obsession with coffee and tea. I take both, hot or cold but preferably hot. I'm always wishing for coffee and tea elements in these card kits and so far, I have not been disappointed. Did I mention this months kit includes some shaker elements? They are fantastic and I trimmed up some of the items in the mix to make the sprinkle embellishments on my donuts. There's also some pretty, clear sequins and they are adhered to my card as well.

Other items used from the kit are: patterned paper, colored cardstock, chipboard elements, and die cuts.

 My last card is a hodge podge of lovely floral die cuts. Beneath all those die cuts is an embossed dark blue card panel using the Tile Reflections 3D embossing folder. Some of my die cuts are adhered directly to the embossed panel and others are popped up on adhesive foam. I also glued some of the sprinkle mix onto the center of a couple of those flowers.

Elements from this kit include, die cuts, colored card panels, shaker mix, cardstock embellishments, sequins and puffy sentiment stickers

April Quick Easy Card Kit For Spellbinders

I'ts April 1st and that means it's time for the new monthly club kit releases from Spellbinders. Today, I have four cards to share with you, featuring the April Quick & Easy Card Kit titled, "Happy Skies Ahead". Scroll down for some brief details.

I'm an avid coffee and tea lover so when I spotted the teapot in the die cut selection, I opted for an indoor table scene that you might find in the kitchen. I selected some patterned paper to serve as "wallpaper" and luckily, there's some fabulous woodgrain paper in this kit that I easily trimmed for the tabletop. 

All the other elements quickly fell in place including the chipboard frames and other die cuts. It's not surprising that this is my favorite card out of all my makes!

Next up, we have some delicious ice cream cones. I'm so happy that Spellbinders includes two of every die cut because I loved having this super cool bear sitting between my two cones.

Again, I trimmed some patterned paper from the kit to create my backdrop, then trimmed the pink and blue cardstock panels from the kit for my die cut setting. This kit includes the most gorgeous copper colored sequins which are glued in both sides of my puffy sentiment sticker. Most of my elements are popped up on adhesive foam for added dimension.

This is another scenic card and I always love to have rolling hills and grassy knolls created with patterned paper. I just think it adds so much interest. My hills were hand cut with scissors and trimmed to fit my card panel. The blue skies and grassy hillside were both trimmed from card panels included in the kit. 

The rest of my elements are die cuts, chipboard stickers, sequins and another puffy sticker sentiment.

Lastly, I made a sweet 16 birthday card. The kit includes alphabet cardstock stickers and this worked perfectly on this card. You can easily choose a different number to represent the birthday year though. My blue "present" and card panel are made from cardstock panels included in the kit. I also trimmed patterned paper to layer on top of my card panel, and also to create some "ribbon" trim for my present.

The remaining elements used are die cuts, chipboard stickers and puffy stickers. Of course each kit comes with cards and envelopes too, enough to make 8 cards!

I hope you'll consider subscribing to the monthly card club kit. I love it so much and this is just a sampling of ideas for cardmaking. The window for new subscribers opens on April 6th and closes on April 27th. Keep in mind that current subscribers will receive product first and remaining available product will be available to new subscribers after. There's no obligation, if you choose to skip a month, you can cancel and resubscribe at any time!

Spellbinders January Club Kit Cards

Hello friends. It's the start of a new year and I'm thrilled to begin the year creating with some of the monthly club selections from Spellbinders. I'll be creating each month with their Stitching Die of the Month products and their Quick & Easy Card Kit of the Month, both are new additions to their monthly club selections. Scroll down to view my samples and a few brief creative details.

The Nested Stitched Burst large die set is is the first offering in the 2023 Stitching Die of the Month Club and released today. You'll receive 4 individual dies in this set. I used 3 of the dies in my photo above, and stitched with DMC variegated thread. My die cuts were made using my new Platinum 6!

The sentiment on my card pictured above was stamped using the Sentimental Greetings Clear Stamp Set which coordinates with this month's stitched die set. You can purchase this a la carte, as well. There are so many fabulous sentiments in this set, it's a must have!

Next up, are the cards I made using the Quick & Easy Card Kit which is a new and re-structured club selection for this year. 

If you love ephemera, then you are going to be over the moon for this kit! There is sooo much to choose from and there are duplicates of every piece. This kit contains 200 pieces that include enough to make 8+ cards; die cut shapes, patterned paper, card panels in several colors, white cards and envelopes, adhesives, embellishments, chipboard frames and puffy stickers sentiments. 

I leaned more towards a simplistic style with the products from this card kit. I love creating scenes and it's so easy to pick just a few pieces and quickly arrange a scene. 

This card kit is called "Indoor Garden" and it's perfect for so many occasions. The coffee lover in me is beyond ecstatic to have some of these elements in the kit!

I'm thrilled that Spellbinders asked me to bring these kits to life. I know you will love them as much as I do. There are add-on selections available as well for this kit. The Happy Plant Etched die set coordinates with this kit and includes 9 dies that you can cut, emboss, deboss and stencil with. I used the leaves from this set above along with the patterned paper from the kit.

I love the options that this kit gives you and with your creativity, there's no limit to what you can do! Spellbinders has taken a lot of the guess work out which is so refreshing.
