Happy Holidays dear friends! Yes, it is getting closer. Popping up to share some last minute Christmas inspiration. I’m working on some other projects but this flower figures prominently and luckily it’s something that I can share :-) I’ve been using this gorgeous flower using a new Spellbinders Contour Die called Layered Blooms (yep, it’s a steel rule die) to decorate packages and oh so many more things. That flower – easy and gorgeous! That sentiment – of course it is Quietfire Design! I used a new Christmas set called Tiny Christmas Wishes for the perfect finishing touch!
SPEAKING OF WHAT I’VE BEEN UP TO . . .
I can’t hint, but Spellbinders can hint. Today, Spellbinders is sharing my story, the inspiration for my designs. Read the article carefully and you’ll be able to figure out what’s coming (wink, wink). The whole story is at this link —–> Designer Spotlight – Becca Feeken. I’m so tickled to have the opportunity to be a licensed designer. If you have a moment, chime in over on the Spellbinders blog. Thank you for letting me share my inspiration!!
My card above is embellished with some of my favorite dies – Spellbinders Cinch and Go Flowers (love that swirl!), Spellbinders Pierced Rectangles (a must have) and Spellbinders Petite Pennants. Okay, back to my work desk! I’m going to have a glass of mojo and continue with some pressing deadlines. I couldn’t resist showing just a small piece of the gorgeousness that I get to work with! Thank you sweeties!!

Oh, Becca, what a gorgeous card! I love how you’ve created the frame, too. I’m going to head over to the Spellbinders website to leave you some love there too. Can’t wait to see what new designs you have in store for us. There are so many dies on my wish list (and I already have so many). Have a blessed Christmas and a Happy, Healthy, Creative New Year! Hugs
Oh my Becca, this is just sooooo gorgeous work from you again. I have already read and commented on their site, and it was a wonderful article and I loved to read it. Everything you ever touch just become such an amazing beauty, I truly think, you have magical hands, and I just soo love everything you ever make, and I love your elegant and amazing style in everything you do, and todays card is no difference. One of my biggest dreams is to be able to own one of your amazing white and golden cards one day, and I know, I will be lucky some day right? ha ha .
Have a wonderful christmas now with you lovely family and enjoy a little family time of the desk for once okay.
So gorgeous. Can’t wait to see your new designs. It is equally gut-wrenching for us too!! What die was used for the scroll under the Merry Christmas tag. I really like that!
Wanda, that scroll/swirl is from my Cinch and Go Flower set – it is vine-like so I love to use it with the flowers :-)
Have a wonderful Christmas Becca, greetings from Australia. Your cards are ‘amazing’

Hi Becca, Understated elegance! Wow,what a card–the simplicity screams sophistication, confidence, style, and beauty. What a contrast to my add everything on the table glued and layered and hope for the best. This card is so well thought out a design. When you’ve got it you’ve got it and Becca has got it. Thanks for making everything look so easy but you have method to your madness and I am so pleased to sit back and duplicate, better known as copy die for die, stamp for stamp, flower for flower. Why mess with success? Thanks, Barbara
Very beautifull card!
Oh this card is Beautiful. I love the simple and elegant lines. Well done Becca. Can’t wait to see your new dies. HUGS

I won’t be there long but would LOVE to see you if only for a hug.MERRY CHRISTMAS and ITS GONNA BE A HAPY NEW YEAR CAUSE BECCA IS MAKING US HAPPY WITH AWESOME NEW DIES. Over to tell spellbinders how special you are.
Hugs

Beautiful card, Becca. Can’t wait to go read the article. Please keep my mother in prayer. She will be going to a rehab tomorrow and probably onto a nursing home. Her world is about to change and she is so unhappy and scared. The worst part is that she doesn’t know the Lord. Very scary. Anyone that reads this please pray for her.
Becca what an exciting time for you and so deserved .
My craft store is about to get more of your dies delivered any day!!!
This card is so you thank you for sharing Pam xxxxx
This is what I wrote about you:
Becca was an early influence on and inspiration to me when I ventured into papercrafts. Therefore, this post will not be short. Becca Feeken was responsible for me starting to buy Spellbinders. When I saw her work, I was in awe. Could I possibly pull off something like that? I now have three magnetic cases filled with awesome Spellbinders dies. Yes indeed there are more carefully stored, especially those big ones. I was thrilled when she designed her own dies. Got them too! Becca’s creative spirit is manifested in her work. Beautiful, inventive, timeless and so freakin’ coooool! I cannot wait to see her new designs.
Thank you Spellbinders for letting Becca bring you to us! Her videos are awesome and she is a very good teacher…that mesmerizing voice. Becca truly loves what she does and shares it with us in a spirit full grace!
Once again Becca, you are showing us true beauty! Can’t wait for your new designs! I have told Spellbinders MORE than once online, as well as in person at shows, that YOU are the reason my Spellbinders collection numbers over 100 dies! Prior to finding your site, I had 1 die, and had never opened it….2 short years later, things have changed! Your designs have changed everything about the way I craft! Blessings to you and yours Dear Lady, as you celebrate the season, although with a heavier heart this year. However, you display your sadness with such “Amazing Grace” I believe you will have a blessed Christmas!

WOW! Congratulations! I am so proud of you. I have visited Spellbinders’ site and left a comment and a recommended note. Looking forward to more of your dies. I have a group of four of your dies at this time. More of your dies are now on my “wish list”. Your card today is gorgeous. You inspire me with each of your creations. Merry Christmas my friend.
Incredible great big hug, congratulations that your talent and designs can be shared with others.
That is a beautiful card. I don’t have any spellbinder steel rule dies. Merry Christmas.
Lovely! You do wonders with gold and white/cream. Where’d you get that button?
Earlene, that cute little button is from the sewing section at Hobby Lobby :-)
Becca, Love your new dies. Really want the flower making one. Merry Christmas
Love your gorgeous work and dies! Yu are such a wonderful designers and love seeing your creations!

Ohhh – Wedding! I never seem to have what I need when I make wedding cards, so I am really excited to see what you have created! Congratulations on the Spellbinder Spotlight.
Hi Becca,
What a lovely card,looking forward to all your new dies.I read all about you on Spellbinders and its so true about every thing you do.You and your family have a very merry Christmas and happy and healthy new year.
Congrats Becca, how exciting for you… I can’t leave a comment at the Spellbinders site without having to sign up to another site or Facebook which you have to give your friends list and I do not like doing that so I will not be commenting over there until they change that and just let you sign in with your normal google account
Oh my! Fabulous, as always. Love the elegant white and gold and the pop of red. Wishing you, Dear Becca, a joyful Christmas and a New Year filled with love and peace and happiness!
