Say Cheese

This oval-shaped birthday card is full of retro charm 📼 and vibrant colors 🌈 — all thanks to the Take Note Collection from @teamspellbinders! I used the 🎞 Reel Color Die to create a vintage viewfinder look, complete with a colorful mix of squares and a tiny camera 📸 front and center. That camera steals the spotlight with its bold red lens 🔴 and layered details. The sentiment 🥳 ties it all together, making this the perfect card to send snapshot-worthy celebration vibes. With its unique shape and cheerful palette, this one’s definitely a keeper! 💌

Bright Skies Ahead 

Bright Skies Ahead 

📌 I created this 4.75” x 4.25” card using several charming elements from the Spellbinders Take Note Collection! I used the BetterPress Take Note Press Plate two ways: first, traditionally with ink for the notepaper look, and second, dry embossed into the background for a subtle bit of texture. I built a rainy day scene layered with clouds, raindrops, and a cheerful umbrella — complete with playful touches like a sunshine corner, push pin, and the sweetest sentiment: “Friends make every view brighter.” A bright little reminder that cloudy days don’t last when you’ve got good friends nearby!

Petunias in Bloom and A Hummingbird in Flight 

Petunias in Bloom and A Hummingbird in Flight 

This dimensional card features gorgeous products from Susan Tierney-Cockburn’s Summer Solstice Garden Collection at Spellbinders. I used the Petunia Cascade embossing folder to create a soft, elegant background, then layered in 3D petunias and a delicate hummingbird for a lifelike, garden-inspired look. The blooms are shaped and shaded to add incredible depth — perfect for showcasing by hand or in a gift box (definitely not one for a standard envelope ✋💌). This card is a little breath of summer in paper form, and it was such a joy to create!

A Sunshine-Soaked Card

This card features the gorgeous gladiolus from Lisa Horton’s Wildflowers Collection at Spellbinders, paired with soft golden tones and elegant layers. I used a BetterPress plate to add delicate script texture to the background, blending in warm ink for a soft, sun-kissed glow ☀️. The stitched oval panel gives the florals a clean focal point, while the sentiment — “You make every moment golden” — brings it all together beautifully. It’s the perfect way to brighten someone’s day with a little handmade sunshine!

Bold, bright, and perfect for sending a little sunshine! #SSSYouAreMyFavorite
