Spellbinders: Open House Slimline and Mini Slimline

 Hi everyone!

If you haven't checked the new Spellbinders collection called Open House, you should. I am totally in love with every single product from it. Today I am sharing two cards (slimline and mini slimline) using products from the collection and bunch of Spellbinders card stock.

Also the Spellbinders card stock colors are just amazing. 

When I was done building the houses I added sentiments using the Mini Christmas Sentiments glimmer hot foil plates! 

Spellbinders: Christmas Slimline Collection

Hi everyone! 

I am back with couple cards using the new Christmas Slimline Collection by Spellbinders. I love the Circle  Kaleidoscope and the layering die ornaments. 

I decided make slimline card, and then using only the circle layering dies to make standard A2 size card.

I also used the Mini Christmas Sentiments Glimmer plates to add sentiments to my cards. So much fun! I also added some white glitter paper for extra interest! 

All the supplies are on the bottom of this post!

Trinity Stamps: Let's Celebrate with Stencils

Hi everyone!

I had so much fun playing with the Cake and Candles 6x9 stencil from Trinity Stamps and building this tall cake to fit a slimline card.

You can also check the Trinity Blog HERE

To make the card start with a piece of white card stock (I used 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" piece). Start building the cake from the bottom to the top. I started with the cake base and masked the areas around using post-it tape or just plain paper.

Next, continue adding layers to the cake.

Once done with building the layers and the topper/banner part use white gel pen to add more details to the cake and the topper.

Trim the panel down to 3" x 8". Die cut the largest Dainity Scallop Slimline from Pool/aqua colored card stock. Create a slim line card base from white card stock ( I used 8 1/2" x 7" and scored the 7" side at 3 1/2")

To finish off the card stamp sentiment from the Supporting Script Sentiments set on the same Pool/Aqua card stock and emboss in white. Trim to size and adhere to the card.

Trinity Stamps: Kind Thoughts are Flowers from the Heart

Hi everyone!

I am back today with a second post and  I am sharing a mini slim line card using few of the new Trinity Stamps products: Buttercup Blossoms stamp set along with the coordinating dies and the Dainty Scallop Edge Mini Slimline die set 

You can also head over on the Trinity Blog to see this post and also find more inspiration from other designers!

To make the card start by die cutting three of the largest mini slimline dies. I do this is to add more dimension to my card instead of using foam. Also this way the card is sturdier and handles going through the mail better.

Next, stamp, color and die cut two of the flower borders from the Buttercup Blossoms stamp set. Also die cut 6 additional pieces to use to stack up the images for added dimension. Same way like we did for the mini slimline panel.

Using adhesive stack up the layers. You can see the achieved dimension below.

Stamp sentiment on blue card stock (same color as your mini slim line layer) and emboss in white. Die cut using the Slimline Series: Stitched Strips Die set. Adhere additional strips on the back to create dimension.
Assemble your card by adhering the flower borders and the sentiment, then adhering to a mini slimline note card ( I create mine using 6 1/2" x 7" piece of white card stock and score the 7" side at 3 1/2")

To finish your card add few Amber Glow Rhinestones Embellishment Mix.
