Spellbinders May 2024 Club Kits: Wax Seal, Stencil and Small Die of the Month

Hi everyone! I have 1 last card to share using the Spellbinders May 2024 club kits! I combined 3 kits on my card, the Wax Seal, Stencil and a few elements from the Small Die of the Month.
If you missed my earlier post with 2 other card designs, check it out HERE.

MAY 2024 SMALL DIE, WAX SEAL AND STENCIL OF THE MONTH
 
I love making super clean and simple cards and this one was fun to make. I originally had some larger leaves die cut and even another cute parrot, but in the end I edited it down to 2 sprigs and 3 flowers 😍
This month's Wax Seal of the month is called Tropical Hi and is an oval shape with a flower, leaf, sprig and the sentiment. It has deep grooves which allows you to add metallic ink easily. The wax beads included (in my kit) was the Matcha color which is a fav of mine! I love the design on this seal, it's so happy!
For the background on the circle I used the Stencil of the Month with the color Matcha. I meant to use 2 different greens, like my last card, but I accidentally used the same ink for both stencils and just went with it! The color looks great with the Matcha wax beads.
I added pink rhinestone gems to the flowers centers, even the flower in the wax seal, for a pop of accent color! It was impossible to get the little gems to show pink in the photos, but it looks great IRL.

Scrapbook.com Sunny Lane Florals Hello card

 Hi everyone! You all know how much I love a good flower die set. I have my forever favorite, Be Bold Blooms and a few others by Spellbinders, but I have another one to add to the list. It's called Sunny Lane Florals by Scrapbook.com.
SUNNY LANE FLORALS AND THANK YOU SENTIMENTS DIE SETS

Sunny Lane Florals has 27 dies of flowers, leaves and sprigs. There are many ways to layer and create different flowers by mixing and matching the flowers and centers it's a really versatile set. You need to check it out!
I die cut my flowers from bright colors of pink, purple and deep orange as I wanted them to POP off the card against the black and white background.
The background is washi tape from Altenew called Dotted. It is a large 4.5" wide washi tape roll and is the perfect size to create fun backgrounds for colorful floral cards. It is a bit challenging to glue down on top of, even foam tape didn't stick, so I used Artis glue by Scrapbook.com. Once it had a chance to dry, they are glued down for good!
The hello sentiment is from the Thank You Sentiments die set which is a set of 4 words that are medium sized and in a really pretty font!
 I love how this turned out 😍

Supplies used on this card:
Black and White Stripes patterned paper by MFT Stamps

Spellbinders Timeless collection slimline butterfly card

Hi everyone! I have a lovely slimline butterfly card to share today! I have lots of crafting to catch up on, so this post will be short and sweet. The Timeless Collection is part of Spellbinders May 2024 releases. This collection has a variety of elegant dies, borders, sentiments and 6 wonderful butterfly sticker packs!
TWILIGHT BUTTERFLIES AND ALWAYS YOU SENTIMENTS
 
My card is a mini slimline design measuring 6"x3" and I used 3 butterflies from the Twilight Butterflies sticker pack. The packs have 7 butterflies with 2 layers to them. The adhesive is the entire bottom butterfly layer, so it stays on your card securely. Since there are 7 I was able to splurge using 3 on my card and have with plenty left over!

The sentiment is from the Always You Timeless Sentiments press plates. The set has 8 all occasion sentiments in a gorgeous elegant font. I love this set and can see it being a go-to set for elegant cards and I think it flows well with these beautiful butterflies.

Lawn Fawn: My Rainbow Unicorn card

Hi everyone! I have a fun cute card to share today. I went to Craft Warehouse on International Scrapbooking Day and won a giveaway 😍 I was able to chose a small prize package and chose an adorable stamp and die set and paper pad by Lawn Fawn!!

I've been making cards since 2006 and if you can believe it, I've NEVER made a card using Lawn Fawn. I'm not a big cutsie card maker, but occasionally I love to make a cutsie card. I couldn't resist this adorable Unicorn 😍
 I ink blended the background with Kitch Flamingo Oxide ink and then added some gold splatters. I lightly colored the images with Copics. The patterned paper is from the adorable Rainbow Ever After 6x6 pad. I love every single piece in this pad. Lawn Fawn has the cutest papers. After winning these, I went over to the LF section and bought another one!
Supplies used on this card:
Kuretake Gansai Tambi Starry Colors (background splatter)

Hi everyone! Its May 8th and that means the reveal of Spellbinders Club Kits is here! Today I'll be sharing inspiration for the Small Die of the Month and Stencil of the Month club kits.

MAY 2024 SMALL DIE AND STENCIL OF THE MONTH

May's Small Die of the Month is called Tropical Friends and features a parrot, a toucan and tropical foliage for them. This die set is SUPER cute and I can see this being a fast sell out!
I googled Toucans and Parrots and was AMAZED at all the bright colors these birds can have. They almost seem fake they are so vibrant and colorful! I chose bright fun colors and wanted to keep the background clean and white so they could POP off the page. I used the Leafy Helix EF for some texture.
MAY 2024 SMALL DIE OF THE MONTH
 
For my second card I combined the Small Die with Stencil of the Month, which is called Tropical Spray and has 2 layering stencils with abstract water or wave droplets.
I wanted a fun shaker element for this (I'm still trying to make at least 1 shaker card a month), so I used the ovals from  the Fran's Frames die set and filled it up with some pretty pink and green shaker elements. I used green inks with the stencil for a nice monochromatic backdrop for the pretty pink parrot. I really love how both of these turned out.
