Black & White Birthday Wishes

iHi Crafty Friends,

Last week I shared two cards I created using a foiled Betterpress image. For my card today I am using the same image, but this image is the negative image that you can get by using the left over used foil and a solid plate. 

This Betterpress plate is called Sweet Memories and was one of the monthly plates from the Betterpress Society.

For my card I created a Trifold card using the 5 x 7 Trifold Showstopper die set from Made to Surprise by Sam Calcott.

Here is a look at the back of the card. I added a sentiment onto the white panel.

Just Because

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today I am sharing an arched shaped card using a Betterpress plate from Spellbinders.

For this card I used the Daisy Trio Betterpress plate that I foiled using black foil. I used the Essential Arches die set to create the Arch shaped card.

For the inside of my card, I used another Betterpress plate, again foiling with black foil. 

 

Day In Full Bloom

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today I am sharing a foiled Trifold Card using products from Spellbinders. 

For the front of the card I used Spellbinders Friendship Grows Betterpress set which was the Betterpress Society set from November 2025. I used the included border die to cut the border along the floral image on the right side of the panel. I used black foil on the floral image.

I used the Shady Leaves 3D Embossing Folder on the orange panel, adding white ink to the raised areas.

For the middle panel I added the sentiment using an older sentiment from Made To Surprise. The oval layers uses the Essential Stylish Ovals die set.

And Many S'More

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today I am sharing another card using Spellbinders Summer Camp Collection designed by Allison Frazier. 

This time round I created a Slimline Easel card so I had plenty of room to create a scene. This card measures 4 inches x 8 1/2 inches when folded.

I used Lawn Fawn’s Slimline Grassy Hillside die set to add all the grass to the card.

To decorate my card I used the Woodland Trio, Trails End and Camp Days die sets.

I used the sign from the Trails End die set to add my greeting and added the stamped sentiment from the Summertime Sentiments Clear Set.

 

Summer Camp Scene

Hi Crafty Friends,

Welcome to my blog. For my card today I am sharing a 5 x 7 card using Spellbinders Summer Camp Collection designed by Allison Frazier.

For the background scene I used the Lakeside Memories Stencil set. This stencil is A2 size, and as I wanted to extend it for a 5 x 7 card I was careful how I added ink to the right side. As I messed up the Sky area, I cut off the sky and added a piece of blue cardstock and added clouds & a sun to the area.

To decorate the card I used the Trailside Trio, Splash Days and Trails End die sets.

For the inside of my card I added another tree from the Trails End die set. I also added two sentients using the Summertime Sentiments Clear stamp set.

 

It's Your Birthday Devour It

 

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today I am sharing a fun birthday card using products from Spellbinders Just Eat Cake Collection, which is a Birthday Card Making Kit recently released. 

I love this fun Chompster image which I paired with the Color Block Accent Arches & Essential Arches die set.

Here is a look at the inside of my card, I added another Chompster monster and added two sentiments from the Just Add Cake Sentiments set.

Bouquet of Hugs

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today I am sharing two shaped cards using products from Spellbinders and Chloe’s Creative Cards.

For the shape portion of the card I used Chloe’s Creative Cards Gilded Rectangles die set. Everything else on these cards uses Spellbinders products.

The flower image is a Betterpress Plate called Sweet Memories, which was a Betterpress Society set. I used black foil to foil the image.

I used Yana’s Tulips Bouquet of Hugs Betterpress set for the sentiment. For the background I used the Petite Bows 3D Embossing Folder.

For the inside of my card, I used an older stamp from my stash .

 

Celebrate in Style

 

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today I am sharing a shoe themed 5 x 7 card using products from Pinkfresh Studio. This card uses the Step into Style collection which includes a stamp set, press plate, stencil & die sets. I used the press plate for my card, hot foiling the image & sentiments using black foil, I then used the stencils to colour the image and the die to cut it out.

I adhere this image to a 5 x 7 top folding card to which I added the pink embossed panel, which was embossed using Spellbinders Petite Bows 3D Embossing Folder.

For the inside of the card, I added an older Spellbinders die set for the sentiment.

Donut Circle Cards

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today I am sharing two donut themed circle cards using stamps & dies from Trinity Stamps.

As I couldn’t decide if I wanted to make a donut with chocolate or pink icing, I decided to make both!

For the base of my card I used Trinity Stamps Circle Card die set which includes dies to create the donut.

I then used the A-Glaz-ing stamp set to add the white icing. The sentiment is also from this stamp set.

Here is a look at the inside of my card, I used more sentiment stamps from the stamp set.

 

Crocus Birthday

 

Hi Crafty Friends,

I have a floral Side Panel card to share with you today using stamps & dies from Made to Surprise by Sam Calcott.

For my card base I used the 5 x 7 Side Panel Showstopper Mechanism die set. To decorate the card, I added the crocuses from the Large Crocus stamp/die set.

I added a birthday sentiment to the card using Concord & 9th’s Big Day Birthday die set designed by Kristina Werner.

Here is a look at the back of my card.i added more sentiments using the Big Day Birthday stamp set. I also added another crocus.
