    Christmas Traditions Inspiration with Andrea Shell

    October 5, 2021 / 1 Comment

    Hello! It’s Andrea Shell with you, and I’m delighted to be back as a guest on the Spellbinders blog. Today I have three cards to share with you using the festive Christmas Traditions Collection. My first card features the beautiful Rejoice Nativity Etched Dies. These dies make it so easy to create elegant Christmas cards! I cut the frame die from gold foil paper, white cardstock, and two shades of brown. I trimmed “rejoice” from the white frame and the manger from the dark brown one and layered them onto the gold frame. I cut the sky background from navy cardstock and layered it onto a white oval. I glued…

    Expressions of Spring Collection – Easter Card Inspiration with Annie Williams

    January 28, 2021 / 2 Comments

    Hi there, this is Annie Williams and I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to share a couple of projects using the new Expressions of Spring Collection.  The elegant layered eggs, cute bunnies, and beautiful florals inspired me to create two different styles of Easter cards that are colorful and fun. The intricate layered egg designs in the Forever Spring Eggs Die Set were so big and beautiful, I knew right away I wanted to make them the focal point of a pretty and sophisticated card.  With soft blended colors and metallic touches, I love how this card screams springtime! Die cut kraft cardstock with the two largest dies in the…

    Stamp Camp Collection by Jane Davenport – Clean & Simple Character Cards with Annie Williams

    October 7, 2020 / No Comments

    Hi there, this is Annie Williams and I’m so excited to have the opportunity to share a couple of projects using the new Stamp Camp Collection by Jane Davenport.  Many of the striking images in this collection are reminiscent of fashion sketches and this inspired me to create two clean and simple cards that focus on the strong characters that Jane so beautifully illustrated. I couldn’t wait to color the delicate mermaid image from the Glorious Mermaid stamp set and thought she deserved a deep sea to swim around in.  This clean and simple slimline card gives her plenty of space to roam, while keeping the focus on her. Cut…

    Hi there, this is Annie Williams and I’m so thrilled to have the opportunity to share a few projects using the new Christmas Foiled Basics Collection by Yana Smakula. Oftentimes I pull out my Glimmer Hot Foil Machine when I want to add some elegant accents to a card, but when I saw the gorgeous designs in this Glimmer plate collection, I knew the foiled elements would be the big star of the show.  For these three cards, I’m sharing a few easy ways to add a touch of color to let that foiling on your project shine.

    September 16, 2020 / 1 Comment

    Hello crafty friends! I’m Jean, a papercrafter living in the Pacific Northwest blogging at Right as Rain. I am delighted to share three winter holiday cards showcasing the Christmas Foiled Basics Collection by Yana Smakula at Spellbinders. With this collection, you’ll create gorgeous, on-trend foiled cards. Grab some cocoa, put on some holiday music, and let’s take a look! You may recall that I am relatively new to foiling with the Glimmer Hot Foil System. This time around, I tried many different color combinations of foil and cardstock. With more experience under my belt, I was willing to foil several times on the same cardstock with different foil colors. At…

    January 18, 2019 / No Comments

    Hello Spellbinders friends. My name is Anna Komenda and I am over the moon happy to be back as a Guest Designer for this wonderful company. This time I had a great pleasure to work with new Glimmer Hot Foil System. To say I am in love with it is not enough. Quality of foiling with this machine is fantastic and foiled elements look so professional. I wouldn’t be myself if I wouldn’t try to incorporate foiling into the layout. When it comes to this machine there is no limitation on the size of the paper you want to add foiling on. However, the size of your die cutting machine…
