New Die of the Month Card for March 2024

 Today I am sharing the last of the four cards that show examples of four of the club kits from Spellbinders. This  one is probably my favorite of the four.  There are many more monthly club kits available from Spellbinders, I  just happen to share four with you.  To view all of the clubs that Spellbinders has to offer, just click here.


To create this card, I started with a top folding A2 white card base to which I added a mat of light brown.  I then added a background of matching god striped, printed paper.  Then I cut a piece of white cardstock using the Candlewick Ovals.  The book and owl were die cut and assembled as shown.  I then glued the oval and book and popped up the own atop the book.  The sentiment was then glimmered using the glimmer set from this month with gold foil and cut out and popped up also.  

I can't say how much I love how this card turned out.  The colors, layout, etc. all work well together.  I hope you will give this die set a try, you won't be disappointed!

Embossing Folder of the Month for March 24 Card Example

 This is day 3 of my 4 card reveals using new monthly clubs from Spellbinders.  Today I am showing the Embossing Folder of the Month for March of 24 called Checkered Scallops.  This folder is awesome and would create a fun background for any card design.  Please stop back tomorrow when I will be sharing my last club of the month example.   There are many more clubs than I share with you.  To view them all, just click here


For this card, I started with an A2 white card base to which I added some light blue cardstock.  I then added a piece of blue plaid printed paper which I embossed with this month's embossing folder.  I added the sentiment, small flowers, and branch from both the KOM-FEB22 and the LDOM-MAY22.  The larger flowers were created using the Mini Blooms and Sprig dies.  I found some matching enamel drops in my stash to add to the flower centers and to the background of the card.  

I love blue and yellow together and that made this card especially nice for me.   I hope you like it and will check out all the monthly options available from Spellbinders!

New Glimmer Plate of the Month for March 2024 Card Example

 Today I will be sharing a card that I made using Spellbinder's Glimmer Plate of the Month for March 2024 called Sketched Lines. I think this plate will create a fun and different background for any card you make!  This is my second sharing and I will be sharing two more clubs in the next few days so be sure to check back.  

I decided to try something different with this card, so I foiled it twice in two directions on a piece of white cardstock.  


I started off with an A2 white card base and added a mat of dark blue glitter paper.  I then foiled the piece of white cardstock twice angling the plate in a different direction each time and used Rainbow Confetti Foil for this procedure.  I then cut the foiled piece and attached it to the blue glitter. 

  I then foiled the sentiment using Cobalt Blue foil and matted it with the same blue liter paper.  It was then attached to the front of the card.  I searched my stash and found three ribon flowers to arrange beside the sentiment.  I also found three clear glass flowers to attach to the front of the card.  

I hope you like this card and will give it a try for yourself.  To view all of this month's club kits please click here.    They also offer reduced rates if you purchase more than one club!

New Stitched Die of the Month Club Example.


 Well  here it is March already!.  I don't know about you, but I am tired of constantly being cold.  I am anxious for Spring to come to western PA!  But here today I am showing off a card I made using Spellbinders Stitched Die of the Month called Stitch Read and Sip.  It features two book bindings along with a cup that can be filled with  florals.  Here is my example.  

This card was created by starting with a white top folding base card to which I added a small grey at and then a smaller piece of printed cardstock which had white writing on it.  I then added my two books,  one stitched and done in greens on the bottom and a red book with a red bookmark stacked on top.

The cup was done in two shades of blue using blue thread to decorate the cup.  I then added some colorful flowers which also came with the dies to the cup.  I left off a sentiment because  honestly, I didn't know where to put one.  You could add any sentiment you wanted and create a card for any occasion. 

I hope you liked this card and give it a try.  To see all of the Clubs of the Month over at Spellbinders, please click here.  I will  be showing off some more of the clubs in the following days, so please check back!
