Spellbinders at CHA

Hi, today is a super quick share. I created both of these for a demonstration in the Spellbinder affiliate booth at CHA. I love this new shaped die(Labels 22) and it's so versatile.

The stickles on the berries really made these cards pop and it's so quick & easy for a big effect. The reason I created these two cards for was to show how different this die can look as a "frame" or a boarder. The only difference is the sentiments and the owl perched on the fence below.

My opinion is that Spellbinders gives you the best bang for your buck in the crafting world. It's just my honest opinion . If you want to see how to create some layers with distress inks you can refer to this card. Have a great day!  Hugs, Kathy

Kathy, your cards are wonderful! I love the colour combination on the first one - the blue sky against the browns in the background is so natural and beautiful. (Reminds me of the country - the richness of the tan/brown fields against a crisp and clear blue Fall sky.)

Beautiful cards Kathy! Love that die! Might have to go get that one. Also, so glad that you are safe and sound after the hurricane.

Cheryl said...

What fabulous creations! I especially love the first one (I'm a sucker for dark colored cards). The Stickles are perfect.

Anne said...

Love the different looks you created here with the framing and I agree about the Spellbinders dies- best option out there for crafting!

Kelly Booth said...

LOVE LOVE Both of these cards...you are so creative my friend!! Love your berries and the distressing.....

Chark said...

Gotta ask--is there a crown that goes with being the Queen of Inking? Gorgeous work again!!!

I love how you have made these appear very different. I do like the second one the best - think it's your trademark faux stitching around the edge & the narrow bordering. Love the shape of these - am without a die cutting machine at present but hope to decide on one at the Cardiff Craft Show end Sept.
