Hello and welcome back!
I have been really sick for the last 2 weeks with the flu so I haven’t been able to get my crafting job done, but I wanted to get this out before the month ends and share my Spellbinders Clubs with you.
First up is the Stitched Die of the Month.
This set has 2 stitching layer frames and one that is a tag that can have stitching added to the bottom. It also comes with 2 rectangle layers that you see I embossed on this card.
I used specialty white/gold shimmer card stock and Stardream Metallic is Eris which is a soft white, photos do not do it justice. The embossing folder I used on the other layers is what came with the new Platinum 6 machine.
The Ginkgo leaves were die cut from matte silver and matte gold cardstock and the Congrats is hot foiled with matte silver foil.
The thread is DMC Diamant number D168 and pared perfectly with the 2 cardstocks I used. I will have those listed below.
When I started the stitching I wasn’t sure where this was going to take me, but the colors guided me to a congrats card which would be great for weddings.
Here are a few photos. And remember you don’t have to stitch if thats not your thing!
Up Next, Wax Seal of the Month
Beautiful sage green wax and a lovely leaf pattern for the seal!
I decided to keep this nature leafy themed. The background for the card panel is one I made myself and will offer as a free printable here on the blog real soon.
I designed this to create 4 card panels from and 8.5×11 sheet of paper. I left the sentiment off so you can add your own with die cuts or like I did, stamp with a hot foil plate. Of course you can also use regular stamps. I used a couple different Versafine Clair inks-I cant remember them off the top of my head, I am typing this on my phone from bed and going from memory. I will list them below.
My goal with the wax seal of the month is to show you lots of different ways to incorporate them into your card making.
For this month I created a cross fold pocket. Super simple. Here are some photos with the measurements, but I will be bringing this back around for sure and can show you in a video soon.
Listed below are the products used. Keep your eyes out for some info on the upcoming Card Maker Success Summit happening later in March.
Thanks for sticking with me while I get back on track.
