Fairy love and wishes......

Good morning!

We have some more fairy-inspired samples today from our lovely Design Team today.

Sandra kicks us off with another one of her fantastic dimensional projects


made using the Sitting Fairy stamp set



Cheremane has very cleverly used the sunflower from the Sleeping Flower Fairy stamp set


to create a background to compliment her focal image


Debs has used an unusual colour palette to create her elegant Fairy card


using the Fairy Picking Flowers stamp set


Linda was obviously feeling very inspired as she came up with two designs for the Fairy In The Moonlight stamp set


Her first card would work well as a Spring or even Valentine's card


And you can tell she is in Christmas mode with this very clever Christmas card


which also incorporates the Crimson Cloud Pine Boughs and Fir Cones stamp set



I hope you enjoy these samples and are inspired to use your fairies in new ways!

Christmas Wreaths

Hi Everyone,
I thought you would like to see what you can do with the new Spellbinders Build a Wreath die set


This is a beautiful die set and makes fantastic dimensional wreaths for your cards and projects.

The main die cuts out the wreath base, and the smaller dies cut out branches which are inserted into pre-cut slots in the wreath base. And of course there is the beautiful bow which can be cut in any colour from a range of materials.

Here are a couple of samples using this fantastic set -


For this card, I cut the wreath from Kraft cardstock and blended some Walnut Stain distress ink to add more dimension to the branches. The sentiment is from the Crimson Cloud Elegant Stag and Sentiments stamp set


The wreath on the second card


is made from white card stock, coloured with Distress Stains.

To mount the wreath, I used a sheet of the Crimson Cloud Wood Veneer


I hope you like these samples and are beginning to feel a little of the Christmas spirit??
