Spellbinders Country Road Dies by Annie Williams

 

Hello there!  Welcome back to my blog!  I'm super excited to be sharing some of the dies from the new Country Road by Annies Williams line.  They are GORGEOUS, and I really did have the best time making some cards with these dies.  There is so much use in these, that I can see playing with them throughout the whole year!

My first card uses the Country Wheelbarrow and the Seasonal Décor dies, and I paired them up with the Holly Flourish embossing folder and the Dancin' Holidays sentiments.  I never pass up an opportunity to make a Christmas card, and I just love how this turned out!

My second card is a reflection of my favorite season which is Fall!  I used the Country Wheelbarrow, the Seasonal Décor, the Rustic Garden, and the Garden Builder dies.  The sentiment comes from the Love Never Fails set.

My final card is just sweet.  Naturally I had to make the kitty a Siamese, and I used the Rustic Garden and the Garden Builder sets.  I'm so happy with how this set of cards came out.  I love just die cutting a bunch of elements, coloring them up, and then putting them together to make some cards.  I do have a video to share how the barrel, the wheelbarrow, and the wheel are easily put together, and I also share how I made the first card.  You can see it here or over on my YouTube Channel.

Spellbinders May 2023 Quick & Easy Card Kit

 

The new Spellbinders Quick & Easy Card Kit is out for May 2023, and it's a very beautiful color palette.  I have 5 cards to share with you.

My first card is a flat shaker that utilizes some of the packaging with those gorgeous sprinkles that come in the kit.

The second card uses a few patterned papers with the ephemera and the chipboard stickers.

The third card was a bit more of a challenge for me.  Not only does it use some ephemera and patterned paper, but it uses the chipboard stickers and puffy stickers as well.

The fourth card is so soothing to me with that bluegreen woodgrain patterned paper.  That color palette is really something!

My final card was so fun, because I decided to make a whole background out of ampersands!  Talk about a fun card with some great texture.

I do have a video showing the unboxing of the May 2023 Spellbinders Quick & Easy Card Kit if you'd like to see what's in it.  You can watch that here or over on my YouTube channel.

Spellbinders Floral Friendship Collection

Hi friends!  Welcome back to my blog!  Today I'm sharing a couple of cards made with the Spellbinders Floral Friendship Collection.  This collection contains patterned papers, chipboard frames, ephemera, and lots more. 

My first card uses the Floral Friendship paper pad along with the Chipboard Frames, and I combined those with the Tweet Cardinal die set and the Mini Everyday Sentiments Glimmer Hot Foil plates.

My second card uses that same paper pad and Chipboard frames, as well as the Mini Everyday Sentiments.  I decided to die cut some daisies using the Daisy Delight Garden Shutters dies.  I love how both of these turned out, and the color palette is so beautiful.  You must go check it out!

Spellbinders Quick & Easy Card Kit of the Month for April 2023

Hello and welcome to my blog!  Today I'm sharing a few cards I made using the Spellbinders Quick & Easy Card Kit for the month of April 2023.  This one has a springy color palette!

My first card uses some of the ephemera to make a background on a piece of cardstock panel.  The sentiment is one of the chipboard stickers.

My second card uses so many of the fun ephemera elements, and they are all popped up using the foam squares from the kit.  The sentiments come from the puffy stickers.

The third card uses a few different patterns from the patterned paper, and the house and balloon ephemera is popped up using foam squares.  The HB2U comes from the chipboard letters.

My fourth card is a fun mix of chipboard stickers and ephemera to make a 'Sweet 16' birthday card.

My final card focuses on the strawberry ephemera as well as the strawberry patterned paper, but it also uses chipboard stickers and puffy stickers for the sentiments.

You can watch an unboxing of this kit here or over on my YouTube channel.  Don't forget that you can pick up the kit HERE and you can check out other Spellbinders Value Subscriptions as well.

Spellbinders March 2023 Quick & Easy Card Kit

 

Hello there, and welcome to my blog!  Today I'm sharing a few cards that I made using the Spellbinders March 2023 Quick & Easy Card Club.  If you've never used one of their card kits before, they are always super packed with lots of elements and ephemera to be able to make loads of cards.

My first card uses lots of the ephemera as well as a card panel and some of the patterned paper.  I did pop the bouquet of flowers up using the foam squares that always come in a kit.

My second card focused on the chipboard stickers from the kit.  I love that bee hive and the darling little bees.  Of course I did use plenty of ephemera as well the sequins from the kit.

My third card uses not only some ephemera but also some puffy stickers.  I love the dimension that the puffy stickers provide.

My fourth card uses some of the critter ephemera that I popped up using the foam squares. I love that bright patterned paper that I paired with them.

My final card might be my favorite.  The patterned paper with the words on it combined with those fun bees just makes me smile. . .sort of like the sentiment says, lol.

If you'd like to see what comes in the kit, you can check out the unboxing video I have.  You can watch it here or over on my YouTube Channel.

If you're interested in purchasing this kit you can get it HERE.  There isn't an add-on die for this month, but these kits are always packed with plenty to keep you busy making cards.  Thanks for stopping by!

Spellbinders February 2023 Die of the Month

 

I thoroughly enjoyed putting together each of these pieces from the Spellbinders Die of the Month for February 2023.  On this card I used all of the pieces (as well as the Embossing Folder of the Month), but imagine how cool each piece is with multiples of itself.  I'll be sharing just such a card in the future, but for now I have this one and I do have a video to share that you can watch here or over on my YouTube Channel.

Spellbinders Quick & Easy Card Kit for February 2023

  Due to weather and technological issues, I don't have a video to share showing me making the cards for the Spellbinders February 2023 Card Kit.  For that reason, I thought I would just share what I made!

My first card uses just a couple of pieces of the ephemera that matched so perfectly with that lemon patterned paper.  I love lemons on cards, so I HAD to make this for my first one.  The lemon itself is popped up using a foam square from the kit, and the sentiment is from the sticker pack.

My second card pops up 3 different flower ephemera using the foam squares, and I even popped up the 'happy birthday' sticker using foam squares as well.  Those darling flat backed sequins from the kit were the perfect touch.

My third card is more of a basic card sketch, but I love the simplicity of it.  The sentiment sticker was the perfect touch to make this card a good 'anytime' card.

My fourth card is another 'happy birthday' card, and it uses chipboard stickers.  The butterflies were from the ephemera pack and are glued only in the center of each butterfly.

My final card uses the Spring Tea Etched Die add-on.  Isn't that bunny tea cup the cutest?

I do have a video of the unboxing if you'd like to see what comes in this kit.  You can watch it here or over on my YouTube Channel.

Spellbinders January 2023 Small Die of the Month

 

Hey friends!  Welcome back to my blog!  Today I'm sharing a card I made using the January 2023 Spellbinders Small Die of the Month.  This set certainly doesn't seem small to me, and I absolutely LOVE the giant ampersand.  Pairing it up with sentiments that leave an impression on the cardstock is a super awesome touch too.  I also used the January 2023 Spellbinders Embossing Folder of the Month as well.  If you'd like to see how I made this you can watch it here or over on my YouTube Channel.

Spellbinders January 2023 Quick & Easy Card Kit

 

Hey crafty friends!  I'm back today to share some cards I made with the revamped card kit from Spellbinders called the Quick & Easy Card Kit.  I did an unboxing of the kit HERE if you'd like to see the contents.  For the most part, it's pretty much the same as before, but it won't have the stamp set and it won't have the die set as with previous kits, however, there is the option for an add-on die set if you'd like.  This kit seems geared more towards beginners, BUT has a lot to offer for those seasoned in card making as well.  Just like the title of the kit, you can make some very Quick & Easy cards with this kit.

Let me share with you 5 cards I made using this kit!  My first card uses the kit contents along with the Add-On die called Happy Plant.  The die set has lots of great leaves and a pot with the option to give that pot a face!

My second card uses lots of the ephemera with one of the chipboard stickers.

My third card uses a couple of the self-adhesive frames (which I LOVE) to showcase a couple of the plant ephemera.

The fourth card was so quick and easy, only using a card panel (which is new to the kits), a piece of patterned paper, some ephemera and a puffy sticker sentiment.

And my final card uses another one of those self-adhesive chipboard frames in the shape of a film strip. . .so cute!

Per usual, I have TONS left over to continue playing if I want.  If you'd like to see how I made these and hear my process, you can watch it here or over on my YouTube Channel.

If you have any questions, reach out, but in the meantime I hope this inspires you to want to get crafty. You can find the Quick & Easy Card Kit from Spellbinders here and the Add-On Happy Plant Die here. Thanks for stopping by!
