Make It Merry Holiday Card & Tag Kit ~ ScrapbookPal

Have you ever purchased a card making kit?  The Make It Merry Limited Edition Holiday Card & Tag Kit is one you won’t want to miss! I'd like to show you how I get acquainted with, and create cards & tags using this Spellbinders kit, available at ScrapbookPal. 

Let’s get started.  

There are loads of die cuts, stickers, sequins, gems, card stock and two sizes of pre-folded cards and envelopes included in this kit, plus so much more. I start by removing all the pre-printed die cuts and sorting them out on my table so I can have a clear view of what’s included in the kit.  Just look at all that holiday goodness!

I then start layering the die cut elements together, creating cluster focal points using Bearly Art Precision Craft Glue and Foam Squares to add dimension. 

Once I feel happy with the focal clusters, I add them to card fronts that have been covered with the design paper that is included in the kit.

I also like to add twine as well as other embellishments from the kit.

Some of the card fronts are layered with different papers.  See how I added movement to the banner by giving it a slight bend and adding liquid glue to each side of the banner.

There are endless possibilities in this kit!

I also made some gift tags, and I go through the same process to make the tags.

I used the Tim Holtz Framed Tags to cut the smallest size tag and added lots of die cuts and foam stickers, finishing them off with some twine.

I have tons of supplies left over, enough to make oodles of cards and gift tags for the holiday season.

I hope you’re inspired to pick up this card kit today and let the fun begin.

New Floral Reflections from Spellbinders

"One can never have enough flowers in her garden, nor can one have enough flower dies in her supply stash."  Is that how the saying goes?? Haha!  Probably not, but it's a true thought, if I'm to be honest.

These new Sealed Wildflowers Dies from Spellbinders are delightful.  They're part of the recently released Floral Reflection Collection that is a definite "must see".  

I like the long stems and simple elegance in this beautiful collection.

I've used the Tile Reflection 3D Embossing Folder on this card.  The gold sentiment banners are leftovers from a past CKOTM, "Truly, Madly, Deeply", which is on sale for 50% off right now. 

I rubbed some DOX ink, very lightly over the top of the embossing to bring out the design just a wee bit.

For my third card, I used a small leftover piece of the embossed panel, mounting it to a Hemstitched Rectangle.  The sentiment is from the Parcel & Post Sentiments Clear Stamp set.  

Here's a list of products I used today:

Spellbinders Card Kit of the Month ~ October

Oh, what fun!!!

Hello friends, today I'm sharing 10 cards that I made using the Spellbinders October Cark Kit of the Month, aptly named "Oh, What Fun!

This is a picture heavy post, so I hope you are sitting somewhere comfortable with your drink and snack of choice.  Let's get started!

As is the case with every monthly card kit, you get oodles and oodles of fun crafting goodies in each box.  

Each card kit includes a 6x6 paper pad, clear stamps, a die set, tons of embellishments, and more! The puffy word stickers in this set make me think of words made out of frosting.  So sweet!

 

Here is a nice sampling of some of the many die cuts you get.  There's always two of each die cut, so you can make multiple cards using the same design or you can make different cards.  The choice is yours!  

This card was made using some the of the clear stamps.  I stamped the gingerbread men multiple times in brown on a kraft card base, then outlined around them using copic markers and blending the colors out. I then added some white gel pen accents.  The snowflakes were heat embossed in white.  The Peppermint Sprinkles are from the previously released Tinsel Time collection.

One of the dies this month, is this super cute jolly ole' elf himself, SANTA!

There's also Christmas tree dies, as well as some sentiment dies.  There's a lot of dies in the kit this month!

Spellbinders kits always have a touch of elegance, using gold or silver accents.

Not only do these kits have all these decorative elements, but they also include 10 card bases with envelopes, several sheets of color coordinating cardstock, double sided tape, double sided foam dimensional squares and sequins.

Santa Lane Floral Die Cut Shapes ~ Spellbinders

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.

For my first card, I started by stenciling the grid pattern in the background, using Antique Linen and Abandoned Coral DOX inks.  I then splattered some gold flecks over the background and set it aside to dry.  The beautiful poinsettias are part of the Santa Lane Floral Die Cut Shapes.  They look so real, and I love the watercolor style.

I layered the poinsettias over foliage from Glitter Die Cut Foliage, from Celebrate the Season collection, and added a sentiment is from the Santa Lane Sticker Pack.

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.

The sentiment is from Christmas Puffy Sentiment Stickers, while the red sequins finished the card. 

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.
