Happy Monday friends! I’m excited to be back today to share a set of projects using the new Truly Yours Collection from Spellbinders. The gorgeous classic design elements and beautiful new Glimmer shapes and sentiments inspired me to create four pretty and feminine cards for various occasions.
MISSING YOU CAMEO CARD
There was something so striking about the simplicity of the Cameo Die Set that I pulled these out to play with first. For a brighter look, I decided to mimic blue agate cameo jewelry in this pretty missing you card.
- Die cut white cardstock with the largest oval from the Elliptical Ovals die set. Leave the die-cut inside of the die and lay the die and paper down on your work surface.
- Using the die as a stencil, blend Salty Ocean, Blueprint Sketch, and Chipped Sapphire Distress Inks onto the center of the die-cut with a blending brush (use lightest shades in the center and darker shades around the edges).
- Die cut white and Mirror Silver Cardstock using the silhouette, laurel frame, and flowers from the Cameo die set.
- Apply Silver Hot Foil to Purple Mist Cardstock using the largest plate from the Essential Glimmer Labels plate set and the Glimmer Hot Foil Machine.
- Die cut the frame out using the largest die from the Essential Labels die set.
- Apply Cobalt Hot Foil to white cardstock using one of the sentiments from the Mini Sincere Sentiments plate set. Cut it out with the coordinating die.
- Adhere the purple foiled panel on top of a top-folding A2-sized white card base with foam adhesive.
- Pop the inked oval background up in the center of the card with more foam adhesive.
- Adhere the cameo, laurel frame, and flowers to the inked oval layer with liquid adhesive. Embellish with blue and light purple crystal rhinestones.
- Pop the sentiment up on the bottom of the card with more foam adhesive.
HEART SWANS CARD
The beautiful birds in the Heart Swans die set are perfect for so many occasions. I gave them a pretty nest background with lots of flowers for this easy love card.
- Die cut white and Mirror Silver cardstock using the outer frame rim and insert dies from the Wistful Window die set. Then die cut the center of each using the leaf frame rim and insert dies from the Deco Bloom die set.
- Adhere the layers together with liquid glue, allowing the silver layer to peek out a bit from behind the white layer as a shadow.
- Die cut Raindrop Cardstock using the outer frame rim die from the Wistful Window die set.
- Die cut white, black, Persimmon, and Pomegranate cardstock using the swan dies from the Heart Swans die set. Assemble with liquid glue. Color the black swan’s eye black with a marker.
- Die cut Pink Sand, Dahlia, and Rainforest Cardstock using the flower and leafs dies from the Heart Swans die set.
- Stamp a sentiment from the I’m Here For You Sentiments stamp set in black ink onto white cardstock. Cut it out with the coordinating die.
- Adhere the Raindrop background panel to a top-folding A7-sized white card base with tape runner.
- Pop the layered die-cut background up on top with foam adhesive.
- Add the geese and sentiment panel up on the top of the card with foam adhesive.
- Adhere the flowers and leaves in the corners with liquid glue. Embellish the flower centers with clear rhinestones.
PARTY DRESS CARD
The little dress from the Paper Couture Dress die set is such a sweet and feminine design and you can choose to dress it up or down. I used patterned paper for a more casual party dress on this fun birthday card for a young girl.
- Die cut patterned paper from the Whimsical Forest paper pad using the bodice and skirt dies from the Paper Couture Dress die set. Die cut pink shimmer cardstock using the bow die from the set and assemble with liquid glue.
- Die cut Mirror Silver Cardstock with the hanger die and adhere it to the dress with liquid glue.
- Apply Silver Hot Foil to white cardstock using one of the sentiments from the Yana’s Special Sentiments Foil Plate Set and cut it out with the coordinating die.
- Die heavyweight vellum with the largest die from the Rings Around the Circle die set.
- Die cut patterned paper with the largest frame and pattern dies from the Essential Rectangles die set.
- Adhere the background panel to a top-folding A2-sized white card base with foam adhesive.
- Pop the dress up on top of the vellum die-cut with foam adhesive and then add the layered die-cut to the card front with more foam adhesive.
- Add the foiled sentiment to the bottom of the card with foam adhesive.
FLOWER BOUQUET CARD
The tiny flower bouquet in the Bouquet of Flowers die set is so beautiful and versatile! I used it here with some vellum and patterned paper to create a soft and pretty missing you card.
- Die cut heavyweight vellum with the wrapper die and various colors of cardstock with the flower and stem dies from the Bouquet of Flowers die set. Assemble the bouquet with liquid glue.
- Die cut Mirror Gold Cardstock with the bow die from the set and add it to the bouquet with liquid glue.
- Die cut patterned paper with the largest frame and pattern dies from the Essential Rectangles die set. Use the holes around the edges to add a decorative stitched edge with white embroidery thread.
- Apply Gold Hot Foil to white cardstock using one of the sentiments from the Mini Sincere Sentiments Foil Plate Set and cut it out with the coordinating die.
- Apply Gold Hot Foil to white cardstock using the label 3 die from the Essential Glimmer Classic Label Foil Plate Set and cut it out with the coordinating frame die from the Essential Classic Labels die set.
- Adhere the stitched background panel to a top-folding A2-sized kraft card base with foam adhesive.
- Pop the foiled label panel up in the center of the card using foam adhesive and add the bouquet on top with more foam adhesive.
- Add the sentiment to the bottom of the card with foam adhesive.
