Hi paper crafters, this is Olga Direktorenko and today I will be using Spellbinders dies to create something different from a card. The first time I saw the Baby Step Block Card die set it was not the building blocks that I thought of - it reminded me of a Japanese style chest of drawers and I got so excited to make my own one...

I always want to get the most out of my die templates, so I thought about taking a large rectangle card front and squaring it up to give it a different look.   I'm Becca Feeken with Amazing Paper Grace and my card today takes a simple rectangle die, cuts it up and reassembles it as a square card.  By doing that, I've kept my favorite parts of the die...

It's Kelly Latevola here and I'm so excited to be sharing a fun dimensional valentine with you today.  Valentine's have been on the forefront of my mind lately. Once I saw this set, with that font, I was sold! I started by laying down a super light blend of Salty Ocean Distress Oxide. I flicked on a bit of clean water and perfect pearls to add...

Valentine’s Day. Just those two words can play on your emotions or your pocketbook and, for some of us, both. Ha! Hi, I’m Debi Adams and I love Valentine’s Day! Though some insist the day is all tied to commercialism, I don’t see it that way at all. I look at it as an opportunity to shower people with kindness and love.  It  can be...

Sometimes I like to mass produce cards for friends, but I never quite want to make them identical.  I'm Becca Feeken with Amazing Paper Grace  and I have an easy card to share with you today.  Take a stunning element and repeat it in a row three times and you'll get a harmonious design, furthermore the eye loves the balance of the three elements in a row.  The...

If you're like me, I'm finding myself thankful to be putting away the Christmas Paper while reaching for something that harkens spring.  I'm Becca Feeken with Amazing Paper Grace  and spring is on my mind.    Indeed, Spring Flowers, April Showers!  A touch of vintage paper, lace and flowers was enough to get me dreaming of flower gardens beginning to bloom. For my card today I started with...

Hello everyone. This is Nichol Spohr and thank you for joining me! One of my favorite techniques when creating cards made entirely of die cuts, is to embellish and add detail with pens, inks, paints, etc. to dress up images for maximum impact. I love mixing and matching multiple dies to create one-of-a-kind scenes for my cards. The Ella-fant Etched dies made an adorable up...
