Spellbinders APG die of the Month December Rose Garden Promise

 Hi, I'm excited to share another card I've made with the December

 Spellbinders Amazing Paper Grace die set.

It's called "Rose Garden Promise" and it creates the most beautiful inlaid cards.




There's a video tutorial available on the Spellbinders and Amazing Paper Grace blog on 
how to used this die set.




The cardstock I used for this card I made myself using a color palette and Photoshop.
That way I can create any colored cardstock I want.




It was much fun to make this card with the beautiful colors.
I feels like you're making a mosaic.

Spellbinders Amazing Paper Grace die of the month December "Rose Garden Promise"

Hello and welcome back. 

Today I'm sharing my first card made with the 

Spellbinders Amazing Paper Grace die of the month December

This month's die set is called "Rose Garden Promise" and it consists of 4 detailed cutting dies.

You can create beautiful inlaid cards with it.

Here's my inspiration.





For this card I used this color palette I found on internet.




I imported this image in Photoshop and with the eyedropper tool I selected the color I wanted.
Then with the bucket tool I filled in a blank  A4 canvas.
I saved the file on my computer so I can print it out.
I do this with all the colors I want to use.
The prints are somewhat different, this depends on the type of printer you use.




You die cut all pieces from the different colored cardstock and fill in the roses and leaves.
It's kind of a mosaic. So much fun to do!

The sentiment is a freebie I found on internet and exported into Photoshop
 on the dusty blue colored A4.




I love the vibrant colors of this card, I hope you like it to.

Flower card for Craft Box UK

 Hello crafty friends, so nice of you to visit my blog!

Today I'm sharing a card made with the beautiful "Come Home"collection by Anna Hersom.

This collection consists of paper pads, ephemera and stickers designed by Craft Box UK owner Anna Hersom and it's only available at Craft Box UK

I love the gorgeous colors of teal and mint green. 

Here's my card.




I made a slim line card this time.
It measures 10,5 x 21,5 cm (4 x 8,5 inches).




I've added lace, a paper doily, fussy cut elements, resin flowers and 
handmade foamiran flowers and leaves.




The blue foamiran flowers are made using white foamiran which I colored with 
oil pastels until it matched the papers. 
I used flowers dies from Crealies.
I also made white foamiran flowers, tiny blue flowers and green leaves.




The sentiment is made in word with a beautiful font.




More inspiration can be found in the Facebook groups Craft Boxers and 
Crafting with Anna Hersom. You're are welcome to join these groups.

Spellbinder Amazing Paper Grace die of the month November

 Hello, it's the first week of a new month and I'm here with the Spellbinders Amazing Paper Grace November die set.

This month the set is Christmas related and it has no less then 21 cutting dies!

It's a 3D pop up vignette poinsettia sleigh.

Here's my make:


I choose a gold and light blue color combo for my 3D sleigh.
I think blue and gold work fabulously together.




The flowers are made from white foamiran.
I made 12 flowers in total but there a 3 different kinds.
Four are just plain white and four are light blue
 (I coloured the white foamiran with a baby wipe and blue chalks).
The other four have an imprint of the veins. You can achieve this by coloring the veins on the die before cutting the foam. You can use inks or soft pastels to color the die.
For the evergreen I used olive colored foamiran.




I really love this 3D sleigh. 
It makes a wonderful Christmas decor piece.

Altered lunch bag for Craft Box Uk

 Hi crafty friends. I'm here with another project as a design team member for Craft Box UK.

It's an altered lunch bag and I used a pad from the pretty paper collection called "Her Garden".

This paper pad has 10 beautiful floral designs.




Altering a lunch bag is very easy, you just fold the lower part up and glue the sides to 
create a pocket. The top flap is then folded over the pocket to create a envelope.
You decorate all sides with the patterned papers.




I torned all paper edges with a tearing ruler and distress them with brown distress ink.
I also covered the back of the pocket with the pretty papers.




I made small 3 tags to go inside the pocket.




The front is embellished with paper flowers, resin flowers and leave die cuts.
I also added some lace trim on the bottom of the envelope and on the flap.






To keep the envelope closed I attached a piece of lace and a long ribbon on the flap
 with a brad. You can wrap the ribbon around the envelope to keep it closed.



The flowers and pretty papers are available at the

Craft Box UK webshop


Thanks so much for visiting my blog.

Take care and until next time.

Hugs, Henriëtte.

Spellbinders Amazing Paper Grace October die set - 3D pop up vignette camera

 Hello everyone. 

I'm back with another project using the Spellbinders Amazing Paper Grace October die set, 

the 3D pop up vignette camera.

This time I created the full 3d camera, which can be laid flat to put in an envelope.




I used black cardstock and silver metallic cardstock. I thought the silver was a bit to shiny so I coated the paper with vintage distress collage medium from Ranger before I cut out the different pieces.

The brown strap is made from kraft colored heavy cardstock which was treated 
with ink refresher to give it a faux leather look.




On the lens I wrote with white gel pen Spellbinders APG Oct. 2020.




On the four panels I glued vintage photo's from Craft O Clock - Vintage photoset I.





I really like how this camera turned out. It looks quite real.

Spellbinders Amazing Paper Grace die of the month October

 Hello and welcome to my blog. The Spellbinders Amazing Paper Grace die of the month October is another awesome design by Becca Feeken.

It's a pop up 3D vignette camera. 

You can use it in many ways; as a card, a mini scrapbook or just a beautiful showpiece.


My first project is this card.



The papers I used are from Craft o Clock and Ciao Bella.
I didn't make the 3D version but kept simple with just the front of the camera.




This die set is perfect to make masculine cards.
Don't you just love the sentiment?
