Old Spellbinders Die

 Hi Everybody,

I am still on my no spend kick and just using dies and items that I already have in my craft room.

This is a really old triple set of dies from Spellbinders and I have used them many times but never on the blog that I can remember.

Each of the panels layers on to the others to build up the design

I have used gold mirror card for the bottom layer. purple mirror card for the middle one and lilac card for the top layer

I have added in some little diamante flowers that have been coloured with alcohol markers to the centre of each flower.

Once the three layers have been adhered togehter they have been added to a black layer and onto another lilac layer  and then onto a black base card that is A6 in size.

The sentiment has been stacked with  four layers of white  card and a top layer of gold mirror card to give it depth, and a few more coloured diamantes scattered around

Not my usual style but pretty all the same.

Bye for now  

Hugs xx

Still Available at Craft Stash

Hi Everybody,

There is no new video today but I do have a list of older ones that are using dies that are still available at Craft Stash. 

 These are the Elegant Nestables Collection and they are some of my favourite sets to wok with and they all work with each other to make you some beautiful cards.

Elegant Nestables DL & Slimline

I have been asked what does the DL stand for and it simply means Double Length ... so the card is 4" wide by 8" length

Each card is created with two different sets to showcase the versatility of them and the videos show you the possibilities of how you can mix and match them which are limitless


This beautiful pink card is a 6x6 size and  has been teamed with cream and some mulberry flowers.

You can add any stamped or die cut sentiment to the card to suit the occasion and your recipient.

It will certainly be playtime in your craft room with these lovely dies to work with and if you got them when they were first released then you will be aware of what they can do.

If you didn't  then here is your chance while they are still available . 


I have used a matt silver card for this base and added the Octagons to the top. 

  
I hope you enjoy these older videos and die sets and if you have them in your collections then maybe it is time to get them out again for another airing. 

I am on a mission to buy nothing new and so I am also looking at what I already have and making it work for me

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx
