Spellbinders | Stitched Mum

Hello there, I hope you are all well and had a good weekend. Today I have a card to share with you using the Spellbinders Stitched Alphabet Etched Dies. I shared a card last month using the set, which you can see here. I really love these dies because they make a big impact on a card. You can use them with stitching or without and I think both ways look great! Today I have a card that I made for my mum. 

PLEASE NOTE: This post contains affiliate links. Please see below for my full disclosure.



I started off by die cutting the Spellbinders Stitched M Etched Dies twice. Two each of the stitching part in white cardstock and two each of the shadow part in Spellbinders Lilac Blossom Cardstock. I then cut the Spellbinders Stitched U Etched Dies in the same cardstock. Using lilac thread, I stitched the white pieces and then adhered the white layers to the shadow pieces with thin foam tape. 


The letters were adhered to a 5" x 7" white card base with more thin foam tape. I then decorated with flowers and butterflies. I mainly used the Spellbinders Be Bold Blooms Etched Dies for most of the flowers and foliage, cutting the stems and leaves from Spellbinders Peridot, Rainforest and Fern Cardstock and the flowers from Spellbinders Purple Mist and Royal Amethyst Cardstock. They were arranged around the letters and adhered with Bearly Art Glue, but a couple were adhered with foam tape too. 


The yellow flowers were die cut using the Spellbinders Mini Blooms & Sprigs Etched Dies and Spellbinders Chamomile Cardstock. The purple flower centres were cut from Spellbinders Chamomile and Beeswax Cardstock. I then die cut the smallest of the Spellbinders So Many Butterflies Etched Dies from pearlescent vellum and adhered them too. The sentiment, from Yana's Tiny Sentiments Glimmer Hot Foil Plate & Die Set was foiled on to Lilac Blossom Cardstock with Spellbinders Silver Foil. It was cut in to a strip and added to the card with foam tape. To finish off, I added Spellbinders Prism AB and Silver Color Essentials Gems.

These dies are so versatile, you can spell anything you want but can also just use one letter on it's own as the start of a word, for example, or as an initial/s for the recipient. Thank you so much for stopping by today, I really do appreciate it. I hope you have a wonderful day!

Altenew | June 2022 Marvelous Monthly Series Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hello there and welcome to Alenew's June 2022 Marvelous Monthly Series Release Blog Hop! This month we are doing something a little different and releasing the monthly subscriptions all on one day. 

Releasing today is Build-A-Garden Nature's Magic, Craft-A-Flower Cape Marguerite, Craft Your Life Silk Art Project Kit, Mini Delight Hooray! and Paint-A-Flower Flowering Dogwood. So there is definitely something for everyone! Please see below for more information on the hop. 

PLEASE NOTE: This post contains affiliate links. Please see below for my full disclosure.



My first card uses the Altenew Craft-A-Flower Cape Marguerite Layering Die Set. I started off by die cutting the flower petals, centres and leaves from white cardstock. I then added ink blending to them using Altenew Small Ink Blending Tools. For the petals, I used Rubellite and Razzleberry from Altenew Cherry Blossom Crisp Dye Inks and Chamomile and Sunset from Altenew Golden Sunset Crisp Dye Inks. I also used the later two for the flower centres. 


For the leaves, I used Altenew Green Valley Crisp Dye Inks. They were assembled and adhered using Altenew 2 in 1 Precision Glue Pen and set as aside. I took an A2 white card base and placed the stencil from the Altenew Craft Your Life Garden Rose Project Kit on top. Using another blending tool, I blended on Altenew Permanent Black Ink in to the lines.


The stencil was removed and the flowers and leaves added on top. I took the sentiment from Altenew Sentiment Strips 3 Stamp Set and stamped it on to black cardstock with Altenew Embossing Ink. I applied Altenew Pure White Crisp Embossing Powder and heat set. It was cut in to a strip and added to the card with Altenew Instant Dimension Foam Tape. To finish off, I added Altenew Essential Black & White Enamel Dots (just the black ones). 


My next card uses the new beautiful Altenew Craft Your Life Project Kit: Silk Art. I first added ink blending to a panel of cardstock using Altenew Enchanted Garden Crisp Dye Inks using an Altenew Large Ink Blending Tool. I then ran the panel through my die cutting machine with the Silk Art 3D Embossing Folder. 


I added white pigment ink to the raised areas, which really makes the embossing pop! The panel was adhered to an A2 white card base with Altenew Instant Dimension Foam Tape. The sentiment from the kit stamp set was stamped on to black cardstock with Altenew Embossing Ink. I applied Altenew Pure White Crisp Embossing Powder and heat set. It was cut in to a strip and added to the card with more foam tape.

Hero Arts | My Monthly Hero June 2022 Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hello there and welcome as we celebrate the release of the Hero Arts June 2022 My Monthly Hero Kit. The theme this month is mermaids, the ocean and all underwater goodness! I have already shared one card using the main kit, which you can see here. Today I have another project to share with the main kit, plus a project with an add-on set too. This post is part of a fun, inspiration filled blog hop with prizes. Please see below for more details. 

PLEASE NOTE: This post contains affiliate links. Please see below for my full disclosure.



I started my card by stamping the mermaid from the Hero Arts June 2022 My Monthly Hero Kit stamp set on to white cardstock with Hero Arts Intens-ified Black Ink. I then coloured her using Copic Markers. 


I had originally planned to die cut her out but decided at the last minute to colour the panel instead. If I was colouring a background, I would usually do that first and then colour the main image but this time, I did it the other way around. I coloured the sea/ocean (inspired by Marker Geek) and then added in the seaweed. 


The sentiment from the set was stamped in the top left hand corner and then the panel adhered to an A2 white card base with foam tape. To finish off, I added a few white gel pen sparkles and dots on her tail fin. 


My next card uses the new add-on set Looking Glass Pearl. As with all of the Looking Glass dies, it features three windows that you can cut in to cardstock and when you layer them up, they look like a looking glass 3D image - so cool! I die cut each layer from white cardstock and then coloured them using ink blending. 


For the bottom sand layer, I used Hero Arts Soft Brown Shadow Ink, followed by Hero Arts Caramel Bold Ink. I then added in some dots with Copic Markers for added interest. For the seaweed on this layer and the next, I used Hero Arts Key Lime Fizz, Green Apple, Pool Party and Blue Raspberry Reactive Inks. For the last layer, I used more Soft Brown for the outer shell of the oyster, followed by Copic Markers for the inside. 


I die cut another of the oyster pieces and added Hero Arts White Hero Pearls to the pearl. Once dry, I cut it out and added it inside the shell. The panels were layered up with thin foam tape and added to a card base which I added ink blending with Hero Arts Splash and Blue Hawaii Reactive Inks for the water. The sentiment was stamped below from Hero Arts Message Strips Stamp & Cut XL

Spellbinders | Paisley Dreams

Hello there, today I have a tag to share with you using the Spellbinders June 2022 Large Die of the Month Club Kit. This month is called 'Paisley Dreams' and features a beautiful paisley pattern with swirls, flowers and decorative flourishes. I actually didn't use the base layer on project, I decided to use the paisley and flowers separately. That's what I love about the kits, you can use them in different ways! 

PLEASE NOTE: This post contains affiliate links. Please see below for my full disclosure.



I started off by die cutting the paisley from the Spellbinders June 2022 Large Die of the Month Club Kit from Spellbinders cardstock in Purple Mist, Lilac Blossom and Royal Amethyst. The pieces were layered up using Bearly Art Glue. I then die cut the flowers from Spellbinders Dahlia and Wild Berry Cardstock. The stems were cut from Spellbinders Rainforest Cardstock


I took the tag from Spellbinders Create a Decorative Tag and die cut it from black cardstock. The flowers and paisley were then added on top using more Bearly art Glue. The sentiment, from Spellbinders Yana's Tiny Sentiments, was foiled on to black cardstock with Spellbinders Lavender Petal Foil


It was cut in to a strip and added to the tag with thin foam tape. I added Journey Black Twine through the top of the tag and tied in a bow. To finish, I added a few Spellbinders Silver Mix Color Essential Gems

Altenew | June 2022 Today is the Day Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hello there, today sees the release of the new Today is the Day collection from Altenew. This is a fabulous release with something for everyone, I think! I was instantly drawn to the Ethereal Roses, they are so lifelike and beautiful, I had to ink them up! This post is part of  a fun, inspiration filled blog hop with prizes. Please see below for more details. 

PLEASE NOTE: This post contains affiliate links. Please see below for my full disclosure.



I started off my card by stamping the new Altenew Ethereal Roses Stamp Set on to white cardstock. I used Altenew Cherry Blossom Crisp Dye Inks for the main part of the roses (all four shades) and then Grapevine from the Altenew Red Cosmos Crisp Dye Inks set for the centres. The leaves were stamped with Altenew Green Valley Crisp Dye Inks


They were then die cut out using the Altenew Ethereal Roses Die Set and set aside while I worked on the background. I took a panel of white cardstock and ran it through my die cutting machine using the Altenew Diamond Stars 3D Embossing Folder. It was adhered to an A2 white card base with Altenew Instant Dimension Foam Tape. I then added the leaves and flowers on top with more foam tape. 


I took the sentiment from the new Altenew Bold Sentiments Stamp Set (this is new this month too and will definitely become a favourite of mine!) and stamped it on to white cardstock with Altenew Obsidian Pigment Ink. It was then cut in to a strip and added to the card. To finish off, I added a few black jewels.

Hero Arts | June 2022 My Monthly Hero Countdown to Creativity

Hello there and welcome to the Hero Arts My Monthly Hero June 2022 Countdown to Creativity. For the next few days, we will be sharing sneak peeks using the new My Monthly Hero Kit. Release day is Monday, 6th June 2022. This month is all about mermaids and the ocean and I know it is going to be very popular! 

PLEASE NOTE: This post contains affiliate links. Please see below for my full disclosure.



For my card today, I am using the clear stamp set that comes in the kit. I started off by stamping the fish from the set on to white cardstock with Hero Arts Intens-ified Black Ink. I then coloured it with Copic Markers (although I did not use it on my card, I took inspiration for the colours from the Mermaid Palette Ink Pad that you get in the kit). I then die cut it out using the coordinating die. 


I die cut three Hero Arts Nesting Circle Infinity Dies circles from white cardstock - two larger for the card base and one smaller for the panel. I added Copic Marker colouring to the smaller one, creating an ocean, adding in some hand-drawn seaweed. If you didn't want to freehand draw it, there is a couple of seaweed stamps in the set. The two larger circles were adhered together at the top to create a circle card base (and a small amount cut off the bottom so that it stands up) and the panel added on top with thin foam tape. 


The fish was added on top with more thin foam tape. I stamped the sentiment from the set on to Hero Hues Pitch Black Cardstock with Hero Arts Clear Embossing & Watermark Ink. I applied Hero Arts White Detail Embossing Powder and heat set. It was cut in to a strip before adhering to the card with more foam tape. To finish off, I added a few Raindrops and then white gel pen highlights.

Clearly Besotted Teasers | Viking Plushies

Hello there and welcome to day four of the Clearly Besotted June 2022 Teasers. Just one more sleep to go before the sets release tomorrow at 8pm BST. I have one last teaser to share with you today using the new Viking Plushies set. This is such a fun set that is wonderful for lots of different occasions. 

PLEASE NOTE: This post contains affiliate links. Please see below for my full disclosure.



I started off my card by stamping the penguin Viking from the Clearly Besotted Viking Plushies Stamp Set on to white cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I added in lines where the different colours would be on the penguin (between the darker areas and his face and tummy) with a black Copic Multiliner.


I also stamped three hearts - one from the new Plushies In Wonderland Stamp Set twice (which I shared on day one) and the other from Ice Ice Plushies Stamp Set. They were all coloured with Copic Markers (the colours that I used are listed below the supplies area) and fussy cut out with scissors.  I then took a panel of white cardstock and placed the Clearly Besotted Have A Heart Stencil on top and then using Ink Blending Brushes, blended Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Inks inside the heart. 


I used (top to bottom) Kitsch Flamingo, Picked Raspberry, Seedless Preserves and Villainous Potion. I splattered on some water, removed the stencil and set it aside to dry. Once dry, I adhered the panel to an A2 white card base with tape runner and then added the sentiment, penguin and hearts on top with thin foam tape. To finish off, I added Tonic Nuvo Crystal Glaze to the hearts and a couple of white gel pen highlights to the penguin.

I took a panel of white cardstock and placed the Clearly Besotted Six A Side Stencil on top, securing in place with Post-It Tape. I then added ink blending with blending brushes inside the hexagons. I used Tim Holtz Distress Inks in Squeezed Lemonade, Mustard Seed, Kitsch Flamingo, Picked Raspberry, Wilted Violet and Villainous Potion. With the stencil still in place, I splattered on Dr. Ph. Martin's Bleed Proof White on top. I removed the stencil and set it aside to dry. 


Once dry, the panel was adhered to a 3.5" x 6" white card base with tape runner adhesive. The plushies were adhered on top with thin foam tape. The sentiment from the set was stamped on to black cardstock with Versamark Ink. I applied White Detail Embossing Powder and heat set.

Clearly Besotted Teasers | Jungle Corners

Hello there and welcome to day two of the Clearly Besotted June 2022 Teasers. Today I am using the super cute Jungle Corners set. This is such a fun set! As the name suggests, the set features two corner images - one that I have used today and another with an adorable monkey in it. It also features a separate image plus lots of fun sentiments. 

PLEASE NOTE: This post contains affiliate links. Please see below for my full disclosure.



I started off my card by stamping the bottom corner from the Clearly Besotted Jungle Corners Stamp Set on to white cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I coloured it with Copic Markers (the colours that I used are listed below the supplies area for reference) and then fussy cut it out with scissors before setting it aside.


For the background, I took a panel of white cardstock and added ink blending to it with ink blending brushes. I used Tim Holtz Evergreen Bough and Mermaid Lagoon Distress Inks. I then splattered it with Dr. Ph. Martin's Bleed Proof White and set it aside to dry. Once dry, the panel was adhered flat to an A2 white card base with tape runner. 


The image piece was adhered on top with thin foam tape. I took the sentiment from the set and stamped it on to black cardstock with Versamark Ink. I applied White Detail Embossing Powder and heat set. It was cut in to a strip and added to the card with more thin foam tape. To finish off, I added a few Lucy's Cards Raindrops and then white gel pen highlights to the images.
