Todays card is a real mixture of dies all put together to make one design, and the only point I am trying to make is that any Spellbinders will go with any other.
The dies in your sets are in various sizes and Spellbinders number them with number one (#1) being the smallest and using that numbering these are the dies I have used.
So for the base I started with #7 from each set of 5x7 Matting Basics A & B and #6 from A and layered up the pink patterned card and I have also lined the inside of the card with some cream
Then I used #3 Heirloom Rectangle for the next layer in pink.
The lovely Gold layer is #5 Gold Labels Four and then topped again in pink with the next size #4 in the same set.
From the patterned paper I cut the largest #7 from Opulent Ovals and then topped that with #2 from Elegant Ovals
The central sentiment circle is simply a bought topper that I stuck in the middle.
The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and if you are new to cardmaking then WOC do a fabulous line in starter packs to get you going
I have used Roses, Rosebuds, Tulips, Sweetheart Blossoms, Cosmos Daisies and white leaves.
I like to add some sparkle to my flowers and I use the Iridescent Glitter from Glitter Magic ... it is the one called Chameleon that is my favorite as it blends with any color scheme you are using.
Now I was in a hurry to take this photo and so I did not allow the glue to dry on the flowers once I had sprinkled on the glitter ... but it does dry clear and flat and all you are left with is the sparkle on the blooms ... Promise !!
All being well I should be back on yout TV screens tomorrow with three shows on Create and Craft. They are scheduled for 8am 12 noon and 5pm so I hope you will join me and maybe send in your emails
And finally a little reminder to Pearl Hudson ... Can you email me your address please so that I can send you the card ... christina@card-making-magic.com
More tomorrow ...
Hugs xx

Christina, just getting caught up after being away for a few days. All the layers of Spellbinders is so fun to look at. I like to do that sometimes as well, but you've really done them up right. Happy to hear you will be on tomorrow, I'll be watching!.
ReplyDeleteGood Morning Christina. It's a whopping 17 BELOW ZERO here in Gaylord, MI this morning at 7:15 a.m. Burrrrrrr. Thank you for the demonstration of all the layering. Looking forward to seeing you on C&C tomorrow. Been viewing the USA Version of C&C too. Enjoy your day and Be Safe in your Travels.
ReplyDeleteWow all those layers look beautiful! I just found create and craft tv here in the US a few days ago. I love it. I will look for your show.
ReplyDeleteHi Christina
ReplyDeleteWhat a stunner this card is. Just love the different Spellbinders you have used. This card I'd gorgeous.
Oh wow this is stunning, not only using the spellbinders dies but such pretty papers witch i seem to have forgotten how to use!! Roll on the weekend to have another day 'playing'. Thank you as always for sharing your beautiful ideas xx PS - good luck with your TV show x
ReplyDeleteWOW! LOVE this mix and match assortment of dies together!! This card warms my heart on this VERY cold and windy day! TFS!
ReplyDeleteWow Christina, that's a card and a half to be sure :). I think I love it and it's the kind of effect I want to try to get when I make my sister's anniversary card in a couple of months...looks like I need to stock up on some dies before then :). It's such a change from your usual cards but is a great way of showing that all the dies play well together. x
ReplyDeleteWho would of thought that so many dies can be combined with each other and make a lovely card...well done Christina
ReplyDeleteLooking forward in seeing you back at Create and Craft

I have been buying Spellbinders dies ever since I started watching your videos. I have several now so I think I will try a card using some like you did on this card. Thanks for the inspiration.

Whoa, so many layers......and so pretty and still you have room for flowers and a bow. Would love to see this one up close. Will try to join you tomorrow live on my computer. Dianne Crowe
ReplyDeleteAh Christina I see you have 'gone off' pink! Beautiful card and a very generous garland of flowers. Thank you for pointing out how well all those different Spellbinders compliment each other. I'm hoping to catch up with the recording of your show tomorrow night. Best wishes Christina and I know you'll knock their socks off. (I'd be afraid to say 'break a leg' it fills ME with anxiety!)

ReplyDeleteOh Christina this card is magic., you have shown off the layers so well and to explain how the numbering of sizes on dies is great (I didn't know how to tell until you mentioned it on one of your previous videos), the colours are beautiful, I have quite a few Spellbinders dies but I need to get some more of the larger ones, which would you recommend?
