Spellbinders Glimmer of the Month for April 2025 - Scattered Letters


Hello, today I have several cards featuring the brand new Spellbinders Glimmer Club of the Month for April 2025 called "Scattered Letters."


For my first card I used the April Glimmer 2025 foil "Black" GLF-010 and foiled a white piece of card stock.  I trimmed it down and added to a striped panel, then added that to my card base.  The sentiment is from "Curved Everyday Sentiments" foiled in gold.  Lastly I added 2 red heart sequins from my stash.

Here's another look:


Now for card two, I used a piece of watercolor paper that had yellow and orange Distress Oxide ink smooshed on it to foil the plate in black for the bottom of the card.  The sentiment is from the same Glimmer of the Month April kit, foiled on another strip of the same watercolor paper.  The top half of the card was a white piece of card stock, dry embossed with the glimmer plate, then I ran the same two ink colors over the top of the raised envelope imprints.  


For card 3, I used rainbow foil GLF-042 on a black cardstock panel, then trimmed it down and used a sentiment from the same glimmer of the month set, also foiled in rainbow on a white strip.




For card 4, I used the negative piece of rainbow foil from card 3 to foil a piece of white card stock.  I trimmed it down and added the sentiment that was also foiled with the rainbow foil.


For my last card I foiled the plate on red card stock with Blush foil GLF-026, along with the sentiments from the set.  I also used the blush foil to make a background strip for the red sentiment.  I popped that up on foam tape for dimension.  Here's a close up look at card 5:

Spellbinders 3D Embossing Folder March Club - Postage Mosaic


Hello and welcome, today I have 4 card for you made with the Postage Mosaic 3D embossing folder - the Spellbinders 3DEmbossing Folder of the Month Club.  It's a really pretty postage stamp design.


My 1st card above was made by embossing a pink panel, inking the debossed side with black ink and trimming down just a portion of the embossed panel.  I popped the panel up on foam tape, added thin striped strips on each side and added a sentiment.

For my next card, I dry embossed the folder on a piece of black card stock, trimmed it down and added metallic paste to the raised areas.  The sentiment is from the April Glimmer of the Month club, dry embossed then I added the paste on top, cut it into a banner and popped it up.


This next card was done the same way, except I fussy cut the stamps out and added them to the slimline card front.  The sentiment is done the same way as above and is from the same Glimmer of the month.


Last card below was made using gold metallic card stock, dry embossing it, trimming out 3 stamps and framing them in black card stock.  The sentiment is foiled and from Curved Everday Sentiments.


Hope you like my cards for today!

Wishing You the Best with Memory Box Cherish Hearts

Balloons 2

Hello and welcome, it's Angie here today with a fun clean and simple card made with the new "Cherish Hearts" die set.

Supplies:  https://ldli.co/e/m5lpljr

Here's a closer look at my card:

Balloons close

I made the hearts into balloons and used a sentiment from the "Signature Greetings" stamp set.

The colorful balloons were cut from Yupo paper that I added liquid glue to and then added some gilding flakes and then pigment powder.  First you have to smear the glue around on the paper, which I did with my finger.  You may have to add a little spritz of water on the glue to get it to move smoothly.  Set is off to dry and when it's clear and tacky to the touch, add the gilding flakes with your fingers, then sprinkle pigment powders on top.  Next spritz lightly to get the powder color to move.  You can also use a paint brush to move the color around if you prefer.  After it dries, cut the hearts and back them with black.  Next, stamp the sentiment on the card front.

I glued one heart and popped the others up and use a black marker to make them into balloons.   I love how it turned out!

Here's one last look:

Thank You Pigment Powder Butterflies



Hello and welcome!  I have a fun card made with a couple of butterfly stamps from my stash and pigment powders.

Supplies:  https://ldli.co/e/43enn0r

Here's a close up look:


I used watercolor card stock and priment powders with a spray water bottle to create some shiny, pretty, paper to use to stamp and cut my butterflies.  I wanted something graphic, mixed media type, to stamp behind the butterflies, but I have destashed my craft supply so much, I don't have mixed media stamps anymore!  So I used a small part of an older stamp set by Pinkfresh Studio called "Delicate Wreath" and Nocturne Versafine Clair ink to stamp to small areas where I wanted my butterflies.  I stamped the butterflies and cut them with the coordinating dies and then added them to the card front, only gluing the center of each butterfly so I could fold the wings up a bit.  I added the sentiment with the same black ink and then added gold pearls and white paint pen to the butterflies.  Here's one last look:


I hope you like my card for today!  I had a lot of fun creating it!

MB butterfly close

I used a piece of plaid paper from the Anemone Plaid Paper Pack (PP1025) and then added a die cut rectangle of gold mirror paper and a blue watercolor panel - all made with the A2 Rectangle Frames dies (94672).  I added the rectangles and then used a white paint pen to add tiny dots all around the blue panel. I cut the butterflies from white card stock and used ink blenders to color them in green, blue and a dark purple for the bodies.  I stamped the sentiment in dark turquoise ink and then added Glossy Accents on top of it.  Lastly I added the butterflies and then some blue gems from the Christmas Fairy Dewdrops (ddp-101) onto the gold edge.  Here's one last look at my card:

You're a True Friend & Many Thanks with Spellbinders BetterPress of the Month

 




Hello and welcome, I have another look at cards today featuring the brand new BetterPress club of the month from Spellbinders for March 2025!  Here's the name and catalog number. 

BPOM-MAR25:  Quilted Memories


For this card I used only the BetterPress of the month Quilted Memories, but instead of using my BetterPress, I used my Spellbinders Platinum 6 machine and dry embossed the cotton panel.  I inked the plate before sending it through my machine and did the same with the sentiment.  I added tiny turquoise gems in the centers and matted the sentiment on a strip of turquoise card stock.



And for my last card I used the heart die set (linked below), green ink with my BetterPress plate and the cotton card stock for a pretty letterpress look.  I cut the heart out and only colored that section with alcohol markers, added gems in the centers and then outlined the heart with the same turquoise market to make it pop.  The heart is also popped up on foam tape for dimension.
