Video Tutorial ...

HI Everybody,

Here as promised is the video tutorial to show you how to get this look using the Glass Effects  from Spellbinders  and it is such an easy idea to recreate.

Choose the colors that you would like your card to be in and a separate color for the frame. I have used Silver Mirror Card for mine

Keep the colors pastel for all your female cards and go for the dark and dramatic for the male ones



Over the last couple of days I have shown you some color ways and ideas.

You can make your base card to fit the panel or you can add another to add to the top as I have done here.

On this card I have used the A2 Filigree Delight  in silver mirror card to frame the colored panel

And I have chosen one of the colors in the card to match the ribbon.









The sentiment on any of these cards can say exactly what you want it to say.

Add your colored panel to a larger base and it will look just as good.

Ring the changes by using Gold Mirror Card or even glitter card for another look.

Enjoy the tutorial for this fun technique.... it's not long

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

  9. Thanks for the video, Christina...isn't it easy when you know how :). I've been on a quick search for both the dies and managed to find them for £9.99, a very good price for a new Spellbinders die. They are now both on my die wish list :). x

  18. Hiya, Such a beautiful card, but then again, All your work is stunning. I need your help with Spellbinder Dies. Mollyssquare has the Labels 39 Nestabilities, Decorative Accents and Decorative Elements for 13.99USD each which is an amazing price. I don't understand completely the system of Spellbinders. Do I need to purchase all three sets to make a card? Can I purchase either the Accents or Elements and make a card? Or do I need to purchase the nestabilities and either the Accents or Elements to use to make a card?
