Fun Folds 2 Cutting Collection

Our original Fun Folds Collection was one of our most popular collections ever. Introducing the Fun Folds 2 Cutting Collection. Ten brand new card bases ready for you to embellish and create with. Our Fun Fold card bases give you a beautiful starting point for your creations, with no measuring and scoring. I quickly made an Easter card using the Shutter Card file and some Verve stamps. You'll notice that I actually folded this card backwards to create a new look. Instead of the center panel being on the front, I folded it to the back and adhered my oval to just one side of the card. Try this with the other folds to get even more options. The Diamond Fold Card has as completely new look when folded backwards.

Spellbinders Digital Die Launch Party: ...

Thanks for joining us today as we celebrate this fun collaboration between Spellbinders and Pazzles. Our first project today is by Pazzles Design Team Member Melin Beltran. Melin's Blog This gorgeous layout shows how you can combine the Pazzles Tools with the Spellbinders Digital Dies to create completely different looks. Melin used the Embossing Tool on the vellum butterflies and then used the Pen Tool to draw in the lines of the Banner Basics Two file before cutting around the drawn image.

All Hopped Up Layout

This layout is often how I felt after an Easter egg hunt with my children and grandchildren. It will be a fun way to show the excitement of young and old as they enjoy the day.




Hot Tamale Treat Topper

I was so inspired by Amanda’s So Lucky To Have You Treat Topper that I turned it into a treat for my hubby. With just a few changes and his favorite candy it came out so cute. First, I changed the Lucky wording to Hot Tamale and then changed the Pen Tool writing to read "You are one". I added a couple of hearts and hot tamale candies, then some stickles to fancy it up a bit. He’s going to love it!


Spring Tulip Layout And Card

Hello crafty friends, Melin here, and today I wanted to share a layout I created with a spring theme. The layout is pretty straight forward. I cut the flowers and leaves and inked their edges for a little dimension. I like laying out everything before I cut and print so I know exactly what size everything needs to be. I used the DCWV Butterfly Garden paper for the background. I used the following craft room files: Frame With Oval And Lattice, Spring Tulips, Spring Daffodils, Tulip Flourish, Fancy Circle Frame.
