Spellbinders Snow Garden Collection
This winter floral collection is just gorgeous. For the first card I created a birthday card using the new Crocus and Ladybugs Etched Dies. I have a lot of friends and family with winter birthdays! I cut the florals, leaves and ladybugs out of white cardstock. I inked the flowers and leaves using Distress Oxide inks in Wilted Violet, Shaded Lilac and Peeled Paint. I used an embossing stylus with a balled end to help give the flowers shape.
I cut a layer using the new Notched Corners Die out of Bristol Smooth cardstock and inked the background. The sentiment was hot foiled using gold foil. I embossed the background layer using the Holly Flourish Embossing Folder. The little ladybugs were colored using Copic markers. The 3D florals really give a 'wow' factor to the card!
I decided to make a thank you card for the second one. I cut the florals out of both white and light blue cardstock and inked them using Distress Inks: Faded Jeans, Shaded Lilac, Peeled Paint.
I also used the Notched Corner Dies to foil the sentiment and inked up the background using Distress Oxides: Faded Jeans, Shaded Lilac and Salvaged Patina. I added a frame of the Mirror Gold cardstock and adhered it to the layer that I embossed using the Floral Frenzy 3D Embossing Folder.

Spellbinders Better Press Fall Themed Cards
I added gold splatter and adhered the panel to an A2 top folding kraft card base. I think this one is my favorite of the two and the impression of both the image and sentiment are so cool!
I've linked all the supplies I used below. These are affiliate links but do not cost you anything extra to use them. I hope I inspired you and thank you so much for stopping by! Have a blessed day :)

Spellbinders Hello Blooms Stencil
For my first card, I inked up the layering stencil using Distress Oxide inks. I cut the sentiment and the florals with the dies that are included. The hello was cut using the Gold Mirror Cardstock. For the background I used the Floral Frenzy 3D Embossing Folder. For a finishing touch I added some Teal Color Essential Gems.
For my second card, I partially stenciled the florals onto an A2 sized layer of cardstock. I hot foiled the new Best Wishes On Your Birthday Glimmer Hot Foil Plate using Glimmer Hot Foil in Gold. this card came together so easily! The stencil is so easy to use and lines up well.
For a finishing touch I added a few Prism AB Color Essential Gems. They have a purplish tint to them that coordinates perfectly with the purple florals.
