Spellbinders Stencil of the Month Club Card…

Pam Sparks5 Comments

Hello! Welcome to my post for the Spellbinders NEW Stencil of the Month Club!  This month is a variety of stencils and I just used one of them!

On Neenah Classic Crest Solar White I inkblended with Peacock Feathers, Shaded Lilac, Peeled Paint and a little Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide ink and ink blending brushes.

Spattered on some water droplets and then white drawing ink.

Next I hot foiled a sentiment to vellum in Silver but it didn’t show up as good as I thought it should so I put a strip of green cardstock behind it.  I taped the green strip down, then wrapped the vellum strip around to the back of a panel so I didn’t have to use any glue or tape on the front.

I used a little white gel pen on the Be Bold Blooms die cut flowers.  Simple flower arranging…

Fun to have another card for the stash!

Thank you so much for stopping by! The sun is shining and making me sleepy!  lol  Talk to you again soon!

Spellbinders January Stencil of the Month Card…

Pam Sparks7 Comments

Hello everyone! I’m starting 2024 with the NEW Spellbinders Stencil of the Month club.  Most of the gals have already posted bright floral, pretty cards so I was trying to think of something different and thought ‘go brown’!  I’m sure that doesn’t surprise you too much! lol

Want to know how the Spellbinders Clubs work?  Click HERE!

So here’s my take on it… I did the stenciling first in Distress inks…Antique Linen, Vintage Photo and Walnut Stain.  Fun!  Something therapeutic about inking up layers!

I wanted some words to stamp around it randomly so I went digging through my Spellbinders stash.  I found the Kindly Deliver to my and the little envelope in the Parcel & Post Sentiments stamp set.  I just used the top part of the stamp.

I found the cancellation lines in the Holiday Hugs Sentiments stamp set.

Then I needed a main sentiment to complete my card!  There are sentiments on the stencils but I wanted something raised up.  I found this Warm Wishes in the Christmas Die and Glimmer Sentiments set.   Wishes is hot foiled and Warm is die cut out of gold mirror cardstock.

I spattered the card with walnut stain distress ink and gold calligraphy ink.

I edged with Gathered Twigs Distress ink and then I went around it with Walnut Stain Distress ink to give it a deeper brown on the very edge.

Layered onto an A2 size dark brown panel and then on to a kraft top fold cardbase.

I have another card to share soon and LOTS of NEW new new from Memory Box!  woohoo!

Thank you so much for stopping by and Happy New Year to you!

Spellbinders NEW Stencil Club!

Pam Sparks5 Comments

Hi everyone! Here we are after Christmas and moving right on to the New Year faster that the speed of light!

Have you heard about the NEW Spellbinder stencil of the month club?  I’m sure you have cuz I’m late getting my card posted for December and it’s already closed!  Usually you can order them a month later though.

This set has four stencils.  I used Distress inks and the mini circle Tim Holtz blending tools.

I used Cracked Pistachio, Lucky Clover and Pine Needles for the greenery.  For the heart flowers I put down Kitsch Flamingo first, then some Worn Lipstick and Abandoned Coral! lol  You sure wouldn’t need to use all the pinks/reds! lol

I hated to cover up all the stenciling so I went with a fun hot foiled sentiment from the Spellbinder All Occasion Mailbox Greetings Hot Foil set.

I really like how clean and simple it turned out plus it was fast to make!

It’s an A2 size card and completely mailable! I noticed the post office was running cards through the machines even if they had ‘hand cancel’ and extra postage on them.  That is really frustrating.  I even received cards that were completely rigid that had been machined. So cardmakers just put a stamp on it and call it good!  I even received a pkg that was a stamp set and a die, weighed 1.8 ounces and only had one forever stamp on it and it still came intact and no extra postage envelope wanting me to pay extra!  All this technology isn’t speeding things up or accurate!  HOHOHO!

Thank you so much for stopping by today!  I went MIA because I needed to get some house stuff done and be ready with gifts and 27 ppl on Christmas Eve day!  WOW!  Did we have fun!  Still smiling about it.  I thank God for our family every day!  I hope you had a blessed Christmas too. Talk to you again soon!

Spellbinders Dancin’ Gingerbread Card and Two Layered Joy Tree Stencil & Die Cards…

Pam Sparks5 Comments

Hi everyone!  Getting festive with the gingerbread and trees today!  I love these characters from Spellbinders every year!  So so cute!

I also love these stencil and die sets!  I have this one and the Merry Christmas one.  I didn’t get the Merry Christmas one made into a card yet!  eek!  If only we didn’t need to do laundry, eat and sleep, oh and shop! hoho!

ok – Back to the gingers…

The green is bright!  But tealish and red would be so cute too!  I was going traditional but boom!  It’s bright for me! lol

So for all you green lovers, this one’s for you!

Now I wish I’d tied on a little jingle bell!  I even have some!  I will have to do that and just pay extra postage!  It’s only money, right?!  ha!

I used regular Distress inks on my JOY cards.  Peeled Paint, Mowed Lawn, Worn Lipstick and Abandoned Coral. We were making these Thanksgiving day afternoon.  I copied Anya, one of my granddaughter’s colors!

I think we used Altenew colors for the Joy.  I can’t remember the names now.

One more picture of one stenciled on Hobby Lobby extra heavyweight kraft cardstock.  Pretty sure I used Distress Oxides on this one but more the Lucky Clover ones for the greens.

I hope your cardmaking is coming a long.  I have plenty to do still!

We started out this week hearing one of our granddaughter’s playing with one of our grandson’s fiance (wedding in March) yesterday morning…a string duet… it was so, so beautiful!

Tuesday night is a choir concert for a bunch of the grands…makes me so happy!

You all take care and all the joys and blessings of the season to you and yours!
