Good morning, friends! It's mid-August and I can already feel a crispness in the air and a change in temperature. Fall is around the corner and winter, not far behind. As much as I am a "summer-girl", I do love autumn as well. Winter however..... not so much. One thing I do love about winter is seeing all the beautiful, new winter and Christmas products that are released each season. The Spellbinders store is loaded with lots of new collections, including the Santa Lane Limited Edition Cardmaking Christmas Kit! This HUGE kit includes over 300 Pieces and will create over 25 Holiday cards with TONS of leftover embellishments and materials to spare.
I added some gold stickles to the centers of each flower and finished the card of with gold sequins.
For my second card, I used the Starburst Glimmer Hot Foil Plate to create the background, using Matte Silver Hot Foil Roll.
I added a hand trimmed banner using printed paper and added this beautiful winter bouquet die from the Santa Lane Floral Die Cut Shapes. I added some stickles to the edge of some of the petals to add dimension and interest.
That's it for my offerings for you today. I'm so glad you stopped in for a visit. You can find all the newly released collections HERE and take a peek and what's COMING SOON. As a bonus, Spellbinders is giving $20 off your next $100 purchase.

I'm not ready for winter either, Birgit but I'll take pretty wintry cards like yours any time of year! We had an unusually chilly August day today. Hope summer doesn't end too quickly!
Thankfully we too have had a break in the weather, yay! Not quite ready for Christmas/winter or even Fall as yet, but it is coming! lol Beautiful and Festive creations! The poinsettias on your 1st card are magnificent, so real looking! Love the pretty floral bough on your 2nd one! These are festive and fab! Merry Merry!
Both of these cards are SOOOOO PRETTY Birgit!! Love your stenciled background on the 1st card and the lovely water colored Poinsettia's...gorgeous combination!! Your 2nd card is absolutely BEAUTIFUL too...that hot foiled background totally makes this card SHINE!! I'm not ready for Winter yet either, but cards like these you can share ANYTIME you want to!! Hugs. :0)
I am with you, love fall but not excited about winter coming. your flowers are lovely, I like the gold leaves and centers you gave to the first card and your stickles are a nice touch in the second, lovely Christmas cards!
