♥ Sweetheart Swirl ♥


Happy Memorial Day Weekend! I hope you are enjoying it so far! We are on the official countdown to the last day of school around here. Can't wait for Summer!! Today, I have a sweet and romantic card to share with you. I am using the Sweetheart Swirl Etched Dies by Amazing Paper Grace for Spellbinders. It is from the new Romancing the Swirl Collection by Becca.


I made the flowers with the Cinch and Go Flowers III Dies and some Lia Griffith Crepe Paper.


The background papers are by LemonCraft and the center vintage image was printed off from Google images. Isn't that Sweetheart Swirl Die to "die" for! And the Swirl Accent in the center is just too sweet!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

♥ Cream and Gold Hemstitch Circles ♥


Hi there! I have a new card to share with you today sing some more of the new Dies by Becca Feeken for Spellbinders. They are from the fabulous Romancing the Swirl Collection.  I paired up Hemstitch Circles Etched Dies with the Ringlet Round Etched Dies to make a super elegant card. This would be perfect for a wedding.

 
I first cut the Ringlet Round Die sing some gold paper and adhered it to my card front. I then added the Hemstitch Circles alternating between the gold and cream cardstock. Then I added the Ringlet Accent Die to the center and then a satin ribbon bow and vintage button. The sweet little tag is from the Graceful Tiny Tag Stamp and Die Set.

Have a wonderful day!

♥ Flourished Square ♥


Hi there! Today I'm sharing a card I made with the Flourished Square Etched Dies from the New Romancing the Swirl Collection by Becca Feeken. I used the Die Cut Frame as my card front by simply adding a tiny bit of clear glue to the back top of it and attaching it to the Frame Outline Die Cut.

 
I then adhered the yellow Interior Frame Outline die cut to the center of the card.


I then added 2 die cuts of the Flourished Accent to the center using pop dots for added dimension. I then embellished it with a flower, pearls, ribbon and butterflies. The sweet tag is from the Graceful Tiny Tag Stamp and Die Set. The sweet and summery papers are by LemonCraft.

 
You can find all of the Amazing Paper Grace Dies HERE on the Spellbinders website as well as Scrapbook.com, SimonSaysStamp.com and many others.


Hope you have a beautiful day!

♥ Romancing the Swirl ♥


Have you seen the new Romancing the Swirl Collection by Amazing Paper Grace for Spellbinders? If not, you're in for a real treat! So many gorgeous new dies! And if you missed my last post, we are having a Blog Hop introducing all of the new dies and you have a chance to win a Die set of your own! Just scroll down to my last post. 


For this card, I am using the Card Creator A2 Corner Cotillion Etched Dies which I adhered over a piece of patterned paper as my card base. I stacked 2 of the die cuts using pop dots to give it extra dimension. The bottom layer was cut using some light pink cardstock and for the top layer I used white cardstock.


I then stacked 3 layers of the Trefoil Crest Etched Dies to frame my stamped sentiment. Love that die cut! Becca really knocked it out of the park with these gorgeous dies! So  elegant, beautiful and timeless!


You can find the New Romancing the Swirl Collection HERE! Have fun shopping! :)


Have a sweet day!

INTRODUCING AMAZING PAPER GRACE - ROMANCING THE SWIRL COLLECTION


Welcome sweet friends. Today we are introducing Becca's New Dies. Welcome to the Romancing the Swirl Collection - you can take a quick peek of the entire collection -------->HERE.

About Romancing the Swirl Collection
The Romancing the Swirl Collection by Amazing Paper Grace for Spellbinders is chock full of calligraphic swirls and elegant, classic dreamy motifs that will be in style for years to come.  Meant to be used together across the collection, every die will be in character with another as they are combined.  Well rounded with squares, circles, ovals, and rectangles - each combination provides the ability to create a layering masterpiece adorned by the extra embellishments in the collection.

Join us as each Creative Team member shares their creations with two dies from the collection.  We'll be sharing creations for weeks to come so you have a continuous source of inspiration!  We are listing all of the creative team below so that you don't miss a beat on the hop.  Don't forget, each of us will be giving away an Amazing Paper Grace die pulled from the comments - one from each blog.  The prize details are at the bottom of my post.  So, without further ado let me talk about the dies I get to introduce:

My Projects Today:

First up is S5-369 - Ringlet Round



This is such a gorgeous die set! It makes any card look so elegant and pretty. It reminds me of a vintage doily. I added the large die cut to my card base by just adhering the center part of it, which left the sides raised a little so it doesn't look so flat. I left my die cut open but you can add a background to the die as well with the included Frame Outline Die. This die cuts so easily too. Such a dream to work with!



I made another card using the Ringlet Round Die Set. This time I used the dies as my card base. I just simply added some hot glue to the very top of the back of the card front to adhere it to another die cut to form the card. The leaf die cuts are from the New Corner Cotillion Set.


This die is large but not too big. Just right, if you want my opinion! ;) It's approx. 5" x 5".


    Second up is S5-366 - Swirl Background





My second project uses the beautiful Swirl Background Etched Die. I adhered it over a piece of patterned paper to give my card an elegant yet whimsical look. Such a fun die to work with! Definitely one I will be using over and over again! Love all those swirls!


This is an A2 size die. So it's perfect to use for backgrounds or as a focal point like I used on my card.

These dies are available right now on the Spellbinders website.  Because there has just been a European launch, I'd encourage you to go ahead and grab those dies that speak to your heart -----> HERE.
