2024: Disco Snowman with Spellbinders' Shine Bright collection [card #284]

Hello, sweet friends! 

I have had a TON of fun using the NEW Spellbinders' Shine Bright collection, by Carissa Wiley. I've got so many ideas to share!!!! 
This next card was another INSTANT idea that I had when I first glanced at the collection. 3 different sized disco balls... of course, I needed to stack them into a snowman! LOL 😂 

I loooooooooooove how this card turned out! I wasn't sure using white ink would work for the base of the disco balls but it was PERFECT!!!! If you know me, then you know I love mixing and matching my sets. I used a few dies from the Dancin' Snowman set for the snowman's winter gear. TOOOOOO cute:) And if you know me.... then you know that Trav helps me sometimes when creating! I showed him some of the sentiment sets I wanted to use, and he came up with "Shine- It's Tinsel Time"! He's so clever 🤩
I have at so many MORE ideas that I want to try and create using NEW SpellbindersShine Bright collection, by Carissa Wiley. I can't wait to share them all!!!! 

That's it for me today. Be sure to stop by the Spellbinders' blog and website for their AWESOME sales!!! 

THANKS so much for stopping by!

2024: Shine Bright Rainbow with Spellbinders' Shine Bright collection [card #283]

Hello, sweet friends! 

I'm back, and I'm thrilled to share a project that I created using the NEW Spellbinders' Shine Bright collection, by Carissa Wiley
I had INSTANT ideas of what I wanted to create using this new collection. After creating a spinner card (click HERE for the details and photos), I knew I wanted to do something with a rainbow. A rainbow of disco balls with a sentiment is the PERFECT encouragement card for a friend!! 
I loooooooooooove how this card turned out! And it was fairly easy to make--- my only advice is to be careful when stenciling each disco ball as you will get smearing or over inking!!! Use masking tape or post*it notes to help with preventing this happening.

2024: Disco Christmas with Spellbinders' Shine Bright collection [card #282]

Hello, sweet friends! 

It's been a LOOOOOOOOONG time:) 

I'm super excited to share a project that I created using the NEW Spellbinders' Shine Bright collection, by Carissa Wiley
When I was asked to join in the fun, I immediately knew I wanted to make a spinner card. I didn't realize how many of us had that idea- LOL 😂 #greatmindsthinkalike After figuring out I wasn't the only one with this idea, I decided to try and make a spinner card that was different... this got me to thinking about the sentiment "bright" and maybe turning my disco ball into a Christmas card. 
I went with a simple design- diagonal scrap papers, die cut and embossed sentiments, and a few sequins for extra bling! This simple design wasn't so simple though... I struggled with so many elements, such as the glitter on the disco ball running 🤦🏼‍♀️ or the card base getting impressions of my die cutting plates 🤦🏼‍♀️ I also had the glitter paper move on me in the die cutting machine 🤦🏼‍♀️ LOL!!! #usererror While I had lots of issues with this card, I absolutely LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE how it turned out! 
Be sure to stop by my IG page to see a quick reel/story of how this disco ball spins!!! Click HERE

I have at least five more ideas that I want to try and create--- hopefully, the next projects won't have as many issues! LOL! I cannot wait to share my ideas and creations!!! 

That's it for me today. Be sure to stop by the Spellbinders' blog and website for their AWESOME sales!!! 

THANKS so much for stopping by!    

Be blessed ❤️
