Hi everyone and welcome to the Spellbinders Blog. It's Sylvia here with my first post in 2013. Have you seen the sneak peeks of all the wonderful new Spellbinders™ products? Aren't they amazing? I totally adore them! Unfortunately my new lovelies did not arrive until today, so I am going to show you a card that I've made with some "oldies, but goodies", today.
Spellbinders™ Paper Arts Supplies:
Other:
- patterned papers, sentiment rubber stamp, brown ink, crinkled seam binding, white decorative pearl pin, sea green self adhesive pearls, ruler, paper piercing tool, white gel pen, dimensional foam adhesive
Step 1:
Die cut the Venetian decorative frame circle and a small circle from green patterned paper.
Because the die from the Venetian Motifs set is very intricate, I would suggest to use wax paper between the die and the patterned paper and to run it twice through the Grand Calibur®.
Tip: Once you've cut it, it can be helpful to carefully use a paper piercing tool to release the paper from the die
Step 2:
Die cut the patterned papers that will be your card base using the dies from the Nestabilities Card Creator "A-2 Matting Basics B"
Step 3:
Distress all edges of the die cut papers using dark brown inks

Step 4:
On your second card layer, create some faux stitching by using a ruler, a paper piercing tool and a white gel pen;
Stamp sentiment onto the smallest circle and assemble everything using dimensional foam adhesive
Step 5:
Embellish your card with ribbon, a decorative pearl pin and some pearls and you are done
