Video Friday | Swirl Frame Cards with Olga
Hi, it’s Olga, today I am super excited to share 2 cards that I have created using Swirl Frame die from the latest On the Wings of Love collection by Joanne Fink. This die is perfect for creating framed cards and it can be both landscape or portrait oriented: The first card I’ve made is portrait oriented. I created a shaped frame card base first and then added an embossed insert. For the focal image I have used a tulip die that is also a part of the Swirl Frame set. The die cuts are colored with Distress Inks and the gold foiled sentiment is attached right on top of…

Then, I added some shading on the gold die-cut using Copic Marker in RV42 for added interest on the die-cut. To finish off…

Wings of Love Inspiration | Love Cards with Elena
Hello dear readers! Elena Salo is here again! I’ve got a chance to play with a new collection of the dies, which was created by Joanne Fink. It is On the Wings of Love. It contains a lot of frequently used sentiments like “Thanks”, “Love “, “Create” and many others which, I think, can add beauty to every card. I also liked the gorgeous alphabet. As for all abstract images, which are in the set, actually it was quite a challenge for me to use them in my projects since I always tried to avoid such items in my cards because I didn’t know how to use them properly. And…

Classics March Inspiration | For You Card with Kaja
Hi there, it’s Kaja from Kajcyika crafts here with you today and I am back at Spellbinders blog with my last post as a guest designer for this week. As already said in my previous posts (catch them here and here), I used dies from a brand new Classics March release for all of the cards I shared with you here. I decided to make my last project quite simple, but yet elegant at the same time. First, I used Fancy Edged Squares and die cut 3 scalloped squares from kraft card stock. I felt like having the same color shapes nested together will look good, but I added some…

Video Friday | Watercolor Lighthouse with Kelly
Hello Crafters! It’s Kelly Latevola here and I’m excited to bring you something a little different today. As a colorist I frequently hear my subscribers say that they have a hard time knowing where exactly to add shading to their images. Did you know Spellbinders has these stamps that come with the shading already added? They have a whole line of 3D Shading Stamps. I thought this Light House stamp would be perfect to incorporate a little watercoloring. I stamped in an extremely light dye ink so that I could maintain my lines as I painted. I started by painting the ares not shaded by the stamp. I used Daniel…

When I saw the Fancy Edged Circles I immediately thought that the smallest die reminders me of a flower, so I went with it and made a card filled with flowers. I started by die cutting the smallest scalloped circle from 5 different colors of card stock and I made 4 flowers…

So here are my cards for today. To begin, I cut a white card stock using the largest frame die in the Fancy Edged Rectangles Dies set, then I placed all other smaller dies on it one by one, put a piece of masking tape on them to keep them from moving…
