Spellbinders has started a “Card Kit of the Month Club”! The kit is $35.00 with free shipping and a 3 month subscription. It has dies, paper, ribbons, tags, glitter, glue dots, stamps, and embellishments to make 10 cards. The cards are 4 1/8″ by 5 3/4″ and 10 envelopes are provided. I received three project ideas with detailed how-to instructions, and I also have access to tutorials on http://www.makersmart.com/.
I am so excited that Spellbinders has started a “Die of the Month Club”. The monthly dies cost $12.50 with free shipping and a 3 month subscription. The “December 2015” dies are the greenery under the flowers. There were 3 similar dies in the kit, and I used two of them on the card. The website for the dies is http://www.makersmart.com/. I love the idea of getting beautiful new dies every month. There are also informative videos on ways to use the dies on the website. I also used “Standard Circles Small” and “Petite Scalloped Circles Large” by Spellbinders on the card. The cardstock on the 5″ by 6 1/2 ” card was “Just Peachy”, “Jelly Bean Green”, and “Ivory” by Gina K. Designs. The pattern paper was the “Make a Wish” page from the “Time to Celebrate” Collection by Graphic 45. The flowers were by Recollection and the ink was “Sweet Leaf” from Close to My Heart.
This is a 5″ by 6 1/2 ” Christmas card. The pattern paper is “Say Freeze Fige” a 48 paper pad by Recollections from Michaels. The dies are from Spellbinders: Reindeer and Sleigh, Create a Flake Six, and Holiday Sentiments. The gold foil paper is from Hobby Lobby
This a 6″ by 6″ card. The large beautiful die is “Label 48 Decorative Elements” die by Spellbinder. The “Happy Holiday” is also a Spellbinder die. The bling is from Queen & Co.
Hanukkah begins at sundown today and last for eight nights. The menorah die is by Die-namic Dies. The two Spellbinders dies are Captivating Squares and Classic Squares Large. The pearls are by Queen & Co.
This gift bag is from a video by “My Sister Scrapper” on YouTube – “Graphic 45 Time to Celebrate Gift Bag and Matching Cards”. I got the bag from Hobby Lobby and the measurements for decorating the bag are: Front and Back pattern paper 7 ¾ inches by 8 inches Top Punched Strip 2 ½ inches by 7 ¾ inches Cardstock strip ½ inches by 7 ¾ inches Small strip of pattern paper ¼ inches by 7 ¾ inches. The punch used for the top strip was from Martha Stewart, and the doily was made by a 6 inch Mini8Punch by We R Memories Keepers. The alphabet letters are a “Victorian Letters” Die from Spellbinders and the carolers are a Bigz die “Victorian Carolers” by Tim Holtz. I used a clear “Wink of Stella ” brush on the letters.
