2024: August Birthday card using Spellbinders' Florals Through the Year collection [card #305]

Hello, sweet friends! 
I'm back with sharing my absolute FAVORITE Spellbinders Florals Through the Year collection creation-- it's another birthday card but with lots of dimension since I fussy cut that poppy flower out multiple times!!! Be sure to check out my other ideas for these BP plates and collection HERE!!! 
This card is my favorite because: 
  • I used my birth flower Press Plates
  • The colors are super pretty together
  • I used my FAVORITE technique- fussy cutting
Here's how I got to the dimension for this card... I pressed this image multiple times on the cardbase, and it didn't look good! LOL! My greens and reds were mixing too much. So I pressed the image again to fussy cut and add as layers. The PERFECT fix! 

I also added a bit of black accent dots to the center of each poppy to make it have more oomph... I think it was the PERFECT touch!!!

See why this is my favorite??? I love it for all of these reasons and because I was able to save it from all my mistakes:) 

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! There's MORE to come 💌

2024: November Birthday card using Spellbinders' Florals Through the Year collection [card #304]

Hello, sweet friends! 
I'm back with sharing another Spellbinders Florals Through the Year collection creation-- this time I went with a birthday card design! Be sure to check out my other ideas for these BP plates and collection HERE!!! 
My second card I tried something different... I wanted to make a ONE LAYER card. I've created one layer cards before... BUT they never turn out how I want them to! LOL! I just don't do well with one layer... however, I think this card turned out 85% awesome (more on this later)! 

What I'm proud of with this card is that oval inked background!!! I didn't have any SB oval die cut images... so I made my own using the Make A Wish Arch Labels dies. All I did was partially die cut the arch, flipped it, and partially die cut it again to match where I had already die cut. So easy! And I think that inked oval background really makes this one layer card pop!!

Now here's where I messed up: I struggled with my ink blending because I thought there was one spot that needed a bit more aqua green ink... so AFTER I took off the flower mask... I inked the "white spot"... only to muddy the pink flower 🤦🏼‍♀️ I added some sequins to cover it up so it all worked out! LOL! **supplies listed below

I have one more project to share, and it's my FAVORITE!!! Be sure to come back for MORE!!!

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 Spellbinders' Shine Bright collection, by Carissa Wiley. I can't wait to share them all!!!!

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. 

I have at so many MORE ideas that I want to try and create using NEW Spellbinders' Shine Bright collection, by Carissa Wiley. I can't wait to share them all!!!!
