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.

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 super cute Echo Park Valentines paper called Love Notes 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!

Spellbinders November 2024 Wax Seal of the Month, Happy Birthday to You

 Hi everyone! Today I'm sharing a pretty pretty birthday card using the November Wax Seal of the Month by Spellbinders. If you missed my card using the Small Die of the Month and the Stencil of the Month, you can find it HERE. This month's theme is birthday and each of the clubs are fabulous!

NOVEMBER 2024 WAX SEAL OF THE MONTH

 

This month's Wax Seal stamp is called "Happy Birthday to You" and it is a square shape. The words are deeply etched, so it is easy to go over it with a silver metallic pen. My kit came with the Must Have Coral Mix beads and I just love all the coral/peachy tones with a pop of copper! I knew I wanted to combine my wax seal with a few of my favorite Sealed stem dies and the new Hexi-Gem Shaker Dome.

The assortment of stems I used are from the Sealed Squiggles and Sealed Wildflowers die sets. These are my go-to sets when I use wax seals. Last month Spellbinders launched 5 Shaker Domes styles, each matching an essential die shape. These shaker domes makes shaker cards so easy to make! Mine uses the Hexi-Gem shape which is one of my favorites!

When I started my card I hot foiled the Monoline Stars Glimmer plate in several colors. I chose the silver foiled piece for my shaker card, but the piece foiled in Rose Gold was WAY TOO PRETTY not to use! So this is a bonus card I made. I kept almost everything the same, but swapped out the shaker dome for an embossed panel. I didn't have any Rose Gold cardstock for my stems, so I foiled a solid rectangle and die cut from it. I love how both of these turned out.

OCTOBER 2024 WAX SEAL OF THE MONTH AND HOLIDAY BLOOMS DIE SET

 

This month's Wax Seal stamp is called "Season of Wonder" and features the saying, Most wonderful time of the year in a really cute font! I started out using the Christmas mix of wax beads and used 1 of each color, but switched out the gold for a black one.

The poinsettias, blooms and greenery are from the gorgeous Holiday Blooms die set. I absolutely love this die set and thought the flowers would frame my wax seal nicely. I used patterned paper called A Wonderful Christmas by Carta Bella. I used it for the background and I die cut the flowers and greenery from it. I used a few wax drops for the flower centers. I love how this turned out.

Autumn is here! Falling Leaves plate and September Wax Seal of the month -2 card designs

 Hi everyone! Today I'm sharing 2 fun fall cards. Fall is here whether we're ready or not, and this month Spellbinders has a great new fall collection called Falling Leaves and the Monthly Club kits also have a fall theme.

First up is a card using some of the Falling Leaves collection with a few added fall accent die cuts.

AUTUMN RAIN PRESS PLATE AND STENCIL BUNDLE

One of my FAVORITE things to do with the BetterPress plates is to foil them! I love how the BP plates can be pressed or foiled. Given their multi-use, I wonder if Spellbinders will continue to make them and quietly stop making Hot Foil plates?

I chose to foil the Autumn Rain plate with matte gold foil and colored it in with the coordinating stencil set (which has 5 stencils). I used a blue teal color for the umbrella for a nice pop of color and stenciled the leaves with a nice green turning to red. I added some fall leaf die cuts with a simple 1 layer sunflower as accents.

Next I have a fall card using the September Wax Seal of the Month, the seal stamp is called "Falling Leaves" and is an oval shape with a variety of fall leaves. I used the Autumn Mix of wax beads and highlighted the leaves with my DecoColor gold pen.

SEPTEMBER 2024 WAX SEAL OF THE MONTH AND AUTUMN SEALED SPRIGS

 

I used a couple of my older Sealed Stems sets with the wax seal. I love all of these stems and they can be used without wax seals. A lovely bow, circle sentiment, lots of possibilities. I wanted to use some of the fall papers that I had in my stash and used the patterned and solids from the paper pad.

I love how these turned out!

Spellbinders July 2024 Small Die, Wax Seal and Stencil of the Month

 Hi everyone! It's been a super busy few weeks and I almost forgot to post my second card using the July Spellbinders Club Kits! Today I'll be sharing inspiration for the Stencil of the Month and Wax Seal of the Month. If you missed my card using the Small Die of the Month you can find it HERE.

This month's theme is Christmas in July and each of the sets are fabulous!

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. 

JULY 2024 SMALL DIE, STENCIL AND WAX SEAL OF THE MONTH

 

This month's Small Die is called "Skating into the Holidays" and features an ice skate along with gorgeous poinsettia flower and lots of greenery and berries to adorn it.

The Stencil set is called "Sprigs and Bow" and has 3 layering stencils and a mask for the bow portion. I only used the 2 sprigs stencils for my background. The berries accent berries in the sprigs are stenciled on with Ruby Glitter Pops of Color, and it's the perfect amount of sparkle!

The Wax Seal is called "Joyful Snowflake" and is a perfect simple single snowflake that is sized the entire wax seal stamp. It's so lovely!

I wanted to add a poinsettia cluster and have my wax seal peeking out from the petals, but I didn't want to cover up the pretty stenciled background. So I made an open frame using oen of my go-to basic shape dies sets, the Nested Postage Labels & Tag die set. I think it gives the perfect frame for the cluster and sentiment and allows the background to be seen.

I love how this turned out.

JUNE 2024 WAX SEAL OF THE MONTH

June's Wax Seal of the Month is called Sun and Waves and I really love it. Like all of Spellbinders' wax seal stamps, the impression is nice and deep making it really easy to add gold metallic pen to the details. The wax beads this month are the Must-Have Wax Bead mix in Teal. This mix has 4 colors of Gold, Teal, Pastel Aqua and Laguna. LOVE this mix!

I wanted to keep this card super clean and simple, so I die cut a few of the smallest dies from Nested Postage Labels & Tag die set in white and adhered them a bit wonky. I added 2 bloom stems from the Sealed Blooms die set and added a bit of coloring to the blooms.

The sentiment is from the Hexi-Gem Sentiments Glimmer. I used gold foil on Blue Spruce cardstock for another pop of teal.

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.

APRIL 2024 SMALL DIE, WAX SEAL AND STENCIL OF THE MONTH

April's Small Die of the Month is called Faux Stitched Sentiments and Floss and features the components of stitching Floss and 4 sentiments! I combined it with April's Stencil of the Month, called Rainbow Floss Background which is has 4 stencils and fills an A2 card background with 6 floss images.

I stenciled the background with Light and Dark Spruce inks and trimmed it down to 4 floss pieces. I added a small strip of black glitter cardstock from the Jewel Tone Glitter Cardstock pack and adhered it down the left side. And of course my card has a few flower accents, these are from the Mini Blooms and Sprigs die set along with some gold pearls.

This month's Wax Seal of the Month is called Cross Stitch Heart and I really love it. I think it can be used for many occasions as well as on envelopes. The impression is nice and deep, and I thought the heart stitches were perfect for a Sending Love sentiment. The wax beads this month are Cloudy Sky which is a gorgeous french blue which set the color scheme for all my cards!

I used a few die sets from the Sealed by Spellbinders collection on this card. One of my favorites called Sealed Squiggles along with Sealed Wildflowers and Sealed Leaf Sprigs. For some extra shine I added some Clear Shimmer Glimmer Brush Marker to the die cut flowers.
I thought the color palette in the Butterfly Garden 6x6 paper pack and picked one with some flowers and leaves down both sides. I fussy cut a butterfly from one of the papers as an accent along with silver pearls. I just love how it turned out!

Spellbinders | March 2024 Wax Seal, Stencil and Small Die of the month

 Hi everyone! I'm back today with a card using some of the March club kits by Spellbinders. I used the Small Die of the Month, Stencil of the Month and Wax Seal of the Month.

MARCH WAX SEAL, SMALL DIE AND STENCIL OF THE MONTH

This card uses the adorable owl from the Small Die of the Month called "Wise Owl" which I placed on a die cut and embossed panel over a stenciled background using the Stencil of the Month called "Dynamic Backgrounds".

Isn't this owl the cutest? I mean just look at the adorable purple glasses! I stenciled the background using 1 of the 2-step patterns from this month's stencil set which comes with two 2-layered stencils (one coordinates with the March Embossing Folder) and 1 stencil that stands alone.

I used my beloved Be Bold Blooms die set for some accent flowers and I placed them around the gorgeous Wax Seal of the month which is called "Congrats on your new chapter". I hand picked the rich raspberry colored wax beads from the Pink Mix bead pack and added some gold metallic ink to the letters.

Spellbinders | February Wax Seal and Small Die of the month

 Hi everyone! I'm back home and have 2 cards to share using the Small Die of the Month, Stencil of the Month and Wax Seal of the Month February club kits by Spellbinders.

FEBRUARY SMALL DIE OF THE MONTH

February's Small Die of the Month is called Rain Boot Bouquet and features a rain boot with a variety of spring flowers! Super cute with so many possibilities. I mean rain boots come in every color and pattern.

I chose to make a neutral gray boot with brown soles and placed inside bright white daffodils, hot pink tulips and tiny flowers with pops of blue! I kept things simple by using a piece of springy gingham patterned paper as the background. I added Star Dust Stickles to the flower centers for that extra pop of sparkle.

FEBRUARY WAX SEAL AND STENCIL OF THE MONTH

 

This card uses my beloved Be Bold Blooms die set flowers and I placed them over a lightly stenciled background and it features the Wax Seal of the month which is called Lily of the Valley.

For the stenciled background, I used one of 4 floral background stencils from the Stencil of the Month which is called Spring Stencil Backgrounds. You can see my other card using a different stencil on this blog post.

I used Rustic Wilderness distress oxide ink with the stencil as it matched the Fern wax beads which were included in the Wax Seal kit. I die cut the flowers and greenery from rich colors that I thought complimented the Fern wax seal. I added hints of gold to the flowers and gold pen to the details on the wax seal.

Spellbinders January 2024 Club kits

 Happy New Year everyone! It's a brand new year of Spellbinders Club Kits. As of December, Spellbinders launched the Stencil of the month club and said good bye to the Card Making Club Kit (some are still available in the Past Club kits section).

For 2024, I am excited to bring you inspiration for the following 3 clubs: Wax Seal, Small Die and Stencil clubs!

I am super excited, so if these clubs interest you, be sure to follow me here or on Instagram.

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.

SMALL DIE OF THE MONTH

 

This month's Small Die of the Month. The set is called Sitting Pretty and features some floral images with a cute little birdie sitting in one of them. I love anything floral, so this one is a winner in my book!

I used an older die set to create a frame for the flower and buds and went a little crazy with a couple of my cards this month and added a little splatter! I discovered the hack of using a water color brush. I dip it in the ink and when done, can squeeze water on a towel and its clean and ready for the next time!

WAX SEAL OF THE MONTH

This month's Wax Seal of the Month is called Made with Love and I really love it. I think it can be used for so many occasions as well as on envelopes. The impression is nice and deep, so it was very easy to add gold pen highlights to it. The wax beads this month are a gorgeous royal blue which set the color scheme for all my cards!

I used a few die sets from the Sealed with Spellbinders collection on this card. One of my favorites called Sealed Squiggles, Sealed Wildflowers and of course Sealed Twine. 

STENCIL OF THE MONTH

 

And finally, here is my card using the Stencil of the Month, called Lively Floral. Now this month's stencil set is a bit different, it actually coordinates with the Glimmer of the Month plate set. You don't have to use it with the glimmer plate, but if you get both clubs it's a nice bonus! And if you get 1 club and not the other, you can sign up this month to get the coordinating piece (don't worry, you can cancel next month if you don't want to keep the subscription).
