Spellbinders December 2024 Wax Seal Club - 2 card designs

 Hi everyone! Today I'm sharing 2 cards using the November Wax Seal of the Month by Spellbinders. If you missed my card using the Small Die of the Month, you can find it HERE. This month's theme is Love/Valentine's and each of the clubs are fabulous! The sign up goes through the 27th, so there's still time! Check out what I made and scroll down for all the products used.

Club subscription info:  
The new subscription sign up window is from the 6th to the 27th.  After existing club members subscriptions have been processed, any inventory remaining will be available for new subscriptions. Continuing Subscriptions will charge on the 5th of each month, which means existing Club Members will be able to cancel subscriptions or make edits to payment or shipping info up until the 4th of each month. 
 
This month's Wax Seal stamp is called "Scalloped Heart" and it is an oval shape. The heart and scallops are deeply etched, so it is easy to go over it with a metallic pen. I opted for a clean look and skipped the pen.
 
Both my cards use some retired Echo Park Valentines paper from my stash (I linked their current Valentines paper pad below) and I chose my wax bead color to compliment the papers. The first card uses my all time favorite Sealed Stems die set called Sealed Wildflowers and the second card uses a simple sentiment from my stash.
I love how these turned out!

Papertrey Ink Trees 'N Patterns - 2 card designs

 Hi crafty friends! I have two more Christmas cards to share today. I'm almost done, but I still have a few more to make! My cards use a new Papertrey Ink stamp/die set from their November Christmas release. One card leans rustic and the other is super CAS!
All supplies used are linked below.
 
 Both my cards use the Trees 'N Patterns stamp set which is such a fun stamp set! There are 2 tree sizes, each have 4 layers each and are a 2-step stamping with a solid stamp and a decorative stamp. There are some small stars and 4 sentiments! 💖
This card has a bit of a rustic vibe to it. I stamped the trees with the Gina K Spruce inks (light, medium and dark) I LOVE that the colors layer perfectly. I added some Snowtek to the ends of the tree layers and inked the edges of the trees and my die cut layers with Vintage Photo ink. I wanted a pop of red, so I die cut the "Merry" sentiment from red cardstock and stamped the "Christmas" in red ink. I also used some red/white twine and added a few red gems.
The background paper is from the Scrapbookcom Holiday A2 paper pad.
I had a few trees leftover and made a super CAS card with one. I cut off the bottom layer of the smaller tree and placed it over a die cut circle. I put a piece of embossed cardstock behind it for some texture. I made a circle ring from glitter cardstock and added some iridescent gems to the tree. A simple sentiment in dark green keeps the serene CAS vibe.
I love how both of these turned out!

Easy last minute Christmas cards - 2 designs

 Hi crafty friends! If you're like me you need a few more Christmas cards to send out, or in my case, to give to neighbors. Rosie's Studio Oh Joyful Day card making kit to the rescue!!
I made 2 quick and easy cards using the kit and a few embellishments to gussy them up. Scroll down for complete list of supplies.
Both of these cards primarily use the card making kit, which you can purchase as a kit, or individual elements. I used pattern papers, ephemera die cuts and sentiments.

It may be too late for you to order this card making kit to send cards this year, but if you have a kit laying around, you can use any similar elements and make something similar.
Adding a few gems, some die cut bows and gold splatter was all these cards needed to take them up a notch! I love how they turned out. Thank you for stopping by and have a great way!

Pretty Pink Posh Christmas Wreath card

Hi crafty friends! I have another fun Christmas card to share. This gorgeous fun wreath is from Pretty Pink Posh and it is set against Holiday A2 paper pad by Scrapbook.com. Check out what I made and scroll down for a list of supplies
   HOLIDAY WREATH BUILDER DIE SET

The wreath and bow are from the Holiday Wreath Builder die set, the sentiment is from the Comfort and Joy Hot Foil/Die set and pattern papers from the Holiday A2 paper pad.
I used a piece of delicate snowflake pattern paper for my background and to keep the card monochromatic, I die cut the holly leaves and pine branches from the same paper pad. The small leaves were cut from a light sage color. And for some bling I added berries die cut red glitter cardstock and some gems. 💖
I love how this turned out!

Spellbinders December 2024 Small Die of the Month

  Hi everyone! Its December 6th and that means the Spellbinders Club Kits are here and the sign up window for the clubs is open!! Today I'm sharing a card using both the Small Die of the Month. 
This month's theme is Valentines, Love and Friendship and each of the kits are fabulous! Check out all the club kits HERE.
Club subscription info:  
The new subscription sign up window is from the 6th to the 27th.  After existing club members subscriptions have been processed, any inventory remaining will be available for new subscriptions. Continuing Subscriptions will charge on the 5th of each month, which means existing Club Members will be able to cancel subscriptions or make edits to payment or shipping info up until the 4th of each month.
DECEMBER 2024 SMALL DIE OF THE MONTH

This month's Small Die is called "Blooming Hello" and features a large H with smaller E L and O, and coordinating florals. It's super cute!! 
 
For my card, I chose a few neutral papers from the Snow Days A2 paper pad and used them for the background and to die cut my Blooming H. I adhered the Blooming H to a panel die cut with the Nested Postage Labels. The Blooming H has a lot going on, so I wanted to keep all the other elements very simple to allow it to be the star of the card. So I kept the colors to 2 shades of green and a deep red.
Lastly, I added a few silver gems which gave the perfect amount of glitz!
I love how this turned out!
