Craft Roulette #210 with Carrie Rhoades

Yay!  I've finally been able to participate in a Craft Roulette!  If you're unaware of what that is, you really need to check it out.  It's a fun crafty challenge over on YouTube where we are given certain parameters in which to create a card.  This week's guest was my friend, Carrie Rhoades, and she nailed it as she always does.

I used some Trinity Stamps goodies along with some Lindy's Gang powders (use code CASSIETCARDS to get 10% off in the Lindy's Gang Store) to create my card to fit in the parameters, and I'm so pleased with where this ended up.

Thanks for stopping by!

New Club Kits for April from Spellbinders

 

Hey there friends!  There are a new Club Kits for Spellbinders, and I'm a little obsessed!  I love the theme this month with it all being stitching and needlework.  I have the Stencil of the Month and they Wax Seal of the Month, and both are incredible!  For the card above, I used various blue inks from the Simon Hurley Create line of inks, and I'm swooning.

My next card I made using the same line of inks, but I use a silver ink for the thread lines and a gold ink for the labels.  That wax seal is just fabulous!

My final card I decided to use Christmas color and then fussy cut out my skeins of thread.  All of the sentiments come from the Fancy Sentiment Strips BetterPress Plates.

There are lots of other kits available, so be sure to head to the Spellbinders store to check them out.  Like I said, they all coordinate, and if you like needlework like I do you'll need these kits!  If you'd like to watch a video of some crafty friends crafting with all of the April Club Kits, you can watch it over on LV Handcrafted. Happy crafting!

Copperplate Sentiments using the BetterPress with Spellbinders

Hey friends!!  Welcome back to my blog!  Today I'm sharing some cards using some new plates for the BetterPress from Spellbinders.  This first card using the Congratulations plate for the BetterPress, and I love how big it is.  I paired this up with the Mock Orange die from the Through the Arbor Garden line of dies.

This next card uses the Thinking of You plate, and I paired it up with the new Stencil of the Month for April.  That stencil will be released on April 6th.

These plates are fabulous for so many reasons. . .they are big enough to cover the front of most cards and I love the scriptiness of them.

Thanks for stopping by!
