Merry Stitchmas Coordinating Card Duo with Angela Simpson
Hi there, Spellbinders friends! My name is Angela and I’m honored to be guest posting here on the Spellbinders blog. Recently I’ve been playing with some new dies from the Merry Stitchmas collection, and today I’ve got a couple of holiday cards to share. If you’re brand new to stitching dies, don’t worry at all, because I am too! Having only made a few stitched cards prior to the launch of this collection, I certainly consider myself a beginner. That said, these are super easy to work with and I know you’ll get the hang of them very quickly! Here’s a quick step-by-step for each card: Sparkling Mandala The Sparkling…

Dimensional Poinsettia DIY | Spellbinders Live
Join Kim Kesti in the Creative Classroom as she creates a beautiful realistic poinsettia from Susan’s Holiday Flora Collection, from Spellbinders’ licensed designer Susan Tierney-Cockburn. Watch video below or on our Youtube channel: Poinsettia are the quintessential holiday flower, aren’t they? Susan’s Poinsettia die set is fairly simple and it’s a great floral die set to begin with. One of the best features of these five simple dies are the unique markings to show you how many times to cut each die (2x, 1x, etc.). You’ll see on the large die, it says 2X, which reminds you to cut this die two times to create the red leaves, (then cut one or…
Susan’s Holiday Flora Collection – Christmas Card Inspiration with Annie Williams
Hi there, this is Annie Williams and I’m excited to be back on the blog today to share a couple of projects using the new Holiday Flora Collection by Susan Tierney-Cockburn. The gorgeous holiday flowers, fun accessories, and beautiful sentiments in this collection inspired me to create three oversized and dimensional Christmas cards featuring realistic-looking leaves and blooms. Poinsettias are one of my favorite flowers to create out of paper, but I’ve never made one quite so realistic as this!
