Spellbinders March Card Kit

 

Good morning friends!  I had some time to play in my studio the other day and created three cards with the Spellbinders March Card Kit!  I'm fairly new to card kits but am completely smitten with them!  Everything that is needed to create beautiful cards is included:  card bases, patterned paper, embellishments, exclusive dies, and even the adhesive.

 

This is the first card that I created.  I was immediately drawn to the beautiful lavender color! 

 

That lovely hello die cut is a gold covered chipboard peice that is included int he kit.  And those cute little white hearts are actually the negative pieces from one of the included dies.

 

For this card, I chose pink as the main color.   I used two of the included dies (the heart circle and the flag dies) as well as one of the clear doily pieces. 

 

I sprinkled on some pearls and a flower (all  are from the kit) as embellishment.

 

For my third card, I thought I would make a gender neutral baby card.  I am in love with this mint green color!

The gold accents really add sophistication, don't you think?

 

Just for fun, I added a bit of coordinating ink sponging on a strip of the included gold and white patterned paper.  I die cut another of the included dies to create that white rectangle frame.  There really are so many goodies included, enough to create a TON of cards! 

 

 

 

 

 

 Well, that's all from me today!

Pink, Pink, and More Pink!

Hi friends!  Lately, I have been obsessed with all things pink!  I seriously cannot get enough!  So when I opened the Spellbinders January Card Kit, I was delighted to see so much pink!

Speaking of the Spellbinders card kit, this is my first experience with it and I absolutely LOVE it! 

 

I think my favorite thing about the kit is that there are so many different options and goodies included!  I don't like to be too limited when creating and really appreciate the variety of papers, embellishments, and dies included.  I also appreciate that the dies can be used long after the kit contents are gone!

Normally I'm a pretty slow crafter, but was shocked at how quickly these cards came together.  Gotta love that!  It definitely helps that everything needed to create is included, including the ribbon, buttons, and other embellishments!

 

I wanted to create an encouragement card so I chose the "you can do anything" sentiment sticker for the sentiment.  Also, I adore the detail on the rose sticker...it's a double layer one with gold on the bottom!  Love!

 

I admit that I actually swooned when I saw the little envelopes in this kit!  They have actual "notebook" paper!  Aaack!  The cuteness!!  :-)

 

I see that the card kit that is currently available has changed to the February kit.  It looks really similar to this one but has more peach hues and butterflies!!  Yeah, and the gold tipped feathers...I'm going to need this one too!
