Spellbinder Release - Part 1

 Hello!  Hope your September is going well.  It has finally cooled down a bit here in my corner of the Pacific Northwest and I am thankful for that.  I'm even hoping for a little bit of rain, but that isn't in the forecast.   As my blog post title indicates I'm sharing some projects created with products from the September Spellbinders release.   These cards were made with products from a new Spellbinders designer, Zsoka Marko.  Zsoka is a whiz with Spellbinders dies and creates the most amazing projects with them.  So I was surprise excited to see that she had a line coming out with Spellbinders.  The collection is called Winter Tales and you can find the complete collection here.  (A list of affiliate linked products will be at the end of this blog post.  Using my links allows me to earn a small commission at no cost to you.  Thank you for your support.)


I used the beautiful Nordic Ornaments for the first card.  The set comes with two different dies, as well as lots of little dies to add fun details.  I used the larger ornament die for my card.   The color palette is from Color Throwdown.   After cutting all the pieces from the various colors of cardstock I put my ornament together.  I finished off the flowers with come Nuvo drops in Morning Dew.  The sentiment is from a previously release Spellbinders stamp set.  The sentiment was stamped in watermark ink and heat embossed with cream embossing powder.   The background was embossed with a new embossing folder called Holly Flourish from a collection by Becca Feeken.  You will be seeing more of this gem of an embossing folder!  I adhered the ornament and sentiment to the background.  Attached that to a kraft cardstock basee and then finished the card with the baker's twine bow.





For my second card I went for a more fall themed design.  This card was created with the Enchanted Garden die set.  This set is packed full of sweet flower images that you can layer to your hearts content, along with several different stems and leafy branches.  All the cardstock I used is from Spellbinders and will be listed below.  I die cut all the pieces from each color and then layered them.  The sentiment is from the Spellbinders September clear stamp and die club.  That was stamped on Alabaster cardstock in VersaFine CLAIR Acorn ink and then the flowers adhered as you see.
