♥ Elegant Poinsettias ♥


Hello. Today I'm sharing a card I made with some more of the new dies from the A Charming Christmas Collection by Amazing Paper Grace for Spellbinders.


On the top and bottom of my card front, I am using the beautiful Snowflake Toppers Etched Dies. I cut out 2 each of the Arched Topper in white and gold paper. I then added a light layer of glue to the back of the white cut out and adhered them over the gold just slightly offset so a little of the gold peeks through.


The Cinch and Go Poinsettias are super easy to make and look good in many different colors. They make the perfect poinsettia in just a couple of minutes!

 
You can find all of Becca's Dies HERE and also at Scrapbook . com where all of the Charming Christmas Dies are On SALE!! ;)


Hope you have an amazing day!

♥ Christmas Poinsettia Tag ♥


Hello. Only 124 days until Christmas! It will be here before we know it! So, today, I'm sharing a Christmas tag I made with some new dies from the A Charming Christmas Collection by Amazing Paper Grace for Spellbinders. The Cinch and Go Poinsettia Etched Dies are super easy to use. And they make the prettiest poinsettias!  I made these flowers in about 5 minutes. They look great in red, white, pink, yellow, etc!


I am also using the Sentimental Christmas Stamp and Die Set as well. LOVE this set!! I added some tiny foam dots under the inner scroll frame for some added dimension. And that Holly and Berries charm is too sweet!

Have a fabulous day!

INTRODUCING AMAZING PAPER GRACE - A CHARMING CHRISTMAS | BLOG HOP

♥ Will remain on top until 8/19/18. Scroll down for new posts using A Charming Christmas! ♥


Tis the season to be jolly!  Even though it is only August, Christmas will be here in the blink of an eye.  I'm sure you are already listing out all the cards and gifts you're gonna make, right?  This year Becca of Amazing Paper Grace has designed a Christmas Collection - A Charming Christmas - for Spellbinders and we have a hop today to show you all the goodies and things we've made.  You can see the entire collection -----> HERE.

About A Charming Christmas Collection
Sweet little charms are so fun to play with, they can be dangled off of gifts, dangled off of cards and used in 3D Projects - they are just like the icing on the cake.  You will see that the "holiday" part of most of the sets in this collection have a Charm to personalize them - they are sized the same so you can mix and match them through your projects!  Here's the big deal: Outside of the charms and embellishments you add to make these dies Christmas, separately they can be used all year-round!! Yep, we're all budget shoppers too and want to get the most use out of a die!

Join us as each Creative Team member shares their creations with two dies from the collection.  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 S4-948 - Charming Christmas Boughs Etched Dies

                     
This is such a beautiful die that can be used in so many ways. It can be shadow layered, like I did with the gold, or you can turn one die cut one way and another in the opposite direction and then layer or use as is. And the sweet little ornament charm and snowflake dies add even more charm to this beautiful die! Such an elegant set for Christmas cards!




 
Next up is S4-962 - Charming Round Tag Etched Dies.

                   
These fun tags/charms are prefect for cards, gifts, gift bags, etc. I love that not only do you get the ornament which can be changed out to give several different looks but you also get the sweet reindeer and mitten too! I also used the new Charming Tag Sentiments Stamps and the Seasons Greetings sentiment from the Sentimental Christmas Stamp and Die Set.





Availability:
These dies are available right now on the Spellbinders website -----> HERE

♥ Annabelle's Trousseau ♥


Happy Thursday to you. Stopping in today with a card I made with the Annabelle's Trousseau Layering Frame Medium Etched Dies by Amazing Paper Grace for Spellbinders. This set was released last year but has been one of my favorites! So I wanted to revisit it. It reminds me of an old Victorian house.

 
I simply layered the die cuts using some foam dots for added dimension. I finished it with a stamped sentiment from the Smitten Clear Stamp Set by Penny Black Stamps, pearls and some ribbon.


You can find all of Becca's beautiful Dies HERE.


Have a fabulous day!

♥ Heartfelt Thanks ♥


hello there. Stopping in today with a card I made using some beautiful Amazing Paper Grace Dies by Spellbinders.  For the base of my card, I am using the Grand Arch 3D Card Etched Dies. I then layered a Hemstitch Circle Die on the front.

 
The sentiment is stamped on the Label die that comes with the Grand Arch Set. The sentiment is by Penny Black Stamps. Paper is Prima. I then finished off the card with some flowers, pearls and ribbon.

 
The Grand Arch is Out of Stock at Spellbinders but is in stock HERE at Scrapbook.com And it's On Sale! :)


Have a wonderful day!
