Hi Crafty Friends! I have a wonderful Birthday Card for you today using a bunch of Spellbinders products, including the new Die of the Month for February! This set has three different floral die shapes that you can use to punch out the design on paper, or it also has the coordinating sides that allow you to cut the design out completely. This is a great stitching die for those who love to stitch!
Here is a list of items I used to create this card…
- Dies
- Spellbinders – Die of the Month
- Spellbinders – Yana’s Sentiments Glimmer Hot Foil Plate & Die Set
- Spellbinders – Nestabilities Essential Rectangles Etched Dies
- Spellbinders – Floral dies from a previous Die of the Month Kit
- Pretties
- Card Stock Colors
- Spellbinders – Mirror Gold Card Stock
- Pink Card stock
- Kraft Card stock
- Sand Card stock
- Cream Card stock
- Brown Card stock
- Basic Tools
I started off by cutting a panel of pink card stock to an A2 panel size and then using one of the Nestabilities Essential Rectangles Etched Dies to foil the small circle border around the edge. I warmed up my Crafters Companion Glimmer machine and followed the directions for the unit. After I foiled it, I trimmed it down to be approx. 3.75×5 inches. I set it aside.
I then cut out the stitched oval shape from the Die of the Month 4 times out of Neenah 80 lb Classic Crest Solar White cardstock. I used the coordinating dies that allowed for me to cut the shape completed out, instead of just the stitching. I then glued them all together creating a chip board like die.
Once I had them all glued together, I then glued it to the pink panel in the middle using liquid glue. I just LOVE the way that pink and browns go together, so I used a previous die of the month and cut out the florals and leaves from various shades of brown card stock. I added the middles using Spellbinders – Mirror Gold Card Stock to add a little flare.
