Spellbinders’ Week at Scrap-Mart

This week was Spellbinders’ Week on the Scrap-Mart Blog and I thought I would repost my contribution here. No week goes by without my using one (or many) of my Spellbinders dies. It’s a rare card that leaves my studio without a mat or message cut and embossed with a Spellbinders’ die. I’m lucky enough to have a Grand Calibur and a few of the Grand Nestability dies. They’re great for scrapbooking, but my favorite use is to create a shaped card base with them. This time I used the largest die from the Grand Nestability Labels Four and created a tri-fold card.

After folding the two sides in, I cut and embossed a lighter shade of green and trimmed it to fit the inside center of the card. Using a third shade of green I cut a Lacey Circle and then a Large Nestability Circle from cream cardstock for the sentiment and focal point. The daffodils are from the Heartfelt Creations “Daffodils” set which I colored with Copic Sketch markers. The sentiment is also from Heartfelt Creations, the “Classic Message” set. The sentiment is stamped with Quick Quotes chalk inks. I used half of a velcro circle to close the card.
