WRBF-3701-2012
Greeting blog friends!!  Welcome to the Spellbinders Explore Beyond Blog Frenzy and Giveaway!  I have two projects to share with you today, the first is smack dab in the middle of my comfort zone and for the second I’m actually ‘exploring beyond’ to try something just a little bit different :-)  For the first project I wanted a memorable wedding card so I picked my colors of white and gold and used Spellbinders™ Celtic Accents and Spellbinders™ Celtic Motifs for a dazzling accent of unique swirls and fine detail.  The occasion called for a long format card that fits into a #10 envelope.
WRBF-3702-2012
There’s a bit of dimension with the raised medallion and I used the border for a tone on tone accent.
WRBF-3703-2012
The card has many details, but it’s a cinch to make and uses few supplies!

  2. Cut a panel of pearl cardstock to 8-7/8″ x 3-5/8″ and mat onto a gold panel cut to 9″ x 3-3/4″
    WRBF-3716-2012
  3. Cut/emboss two of the long borders and mount them on the card (using Glossy Accents) width wise with a strip of ribbon in between, securing on the back and adhering to base using foam tape.  Apply swirl of pearls to right end and attach stamped sentiment.
    WRBF-3717-2012
  4. Cut/emboss the pieces shown above making sure gold piece centers are hollow and white piece center is filled.
    WRBF-3718-2012

  6. Score around again on the area shown above.

    WRBF-3722-2012
  8. Adhere to white round layer – this will form the bottom of the medallion.
    WRBF-3723-2012
  9. Cut/emboss four of the rounded triangle pieces and secure in corner with a brad then stack the elements as shown above.
    WRBF-3724-2012
  10. Attach medallion towards the left side of card.
    WRBF-3725-2012
  11. Add bow and trinket pin on left side of card.
Now on to my second project for today…
WRBF-3700-2012

I’ve always wanted to try embossing paste using Spellbinder die templates.  You never know these things until you try, so I put on my brave hat and rescued some black tiles from a remodeling project.  I cleaned the tiles off and spread Dreamweaver Embossing Paste across the template which I masked with painters tape then removed leaving the relief of the Celtic pattern.  I got so excited about this, that I’ll be trying again with mat board and have some gold paste coming my way.  I love the dimension!
WRBF-3707-2012
I assembled the tiles into an accordion fold book and inside I put some of my favorite Quietfire quotes as well as a place to journal some gratitude.
WRBF-3705-2012
Each of the inner pages is rimmed with gold and the same gold leaf pen used to fill in the corners before overlaying a celtic embellishment.
WRBF-3706-2012
The above picture shows the tile front cover and back cover of the accordion album, side by side.

So is there anything you have on your “want to try” list?  Come on, be brave, tell me what it is!!   I’ve found that experimenting around makes me eager enough to plunge into new techniques.  I encourage you to embrace your curiosity and try those things on your ‘want to try’ list; do it – one by one.

    GORGEOUS wedding card, Becca!!! Always LOVE white & gold (or silver) for a wedding/anniversary card.

  • Francie in MontrealMarch 1, 2013 - 11:41 am

    These cards just rose, at the speed of light, to the top of Francie’s favourite Becca cards. In a word, they are amazing.
    I have used the paste with a Dreamweaver’s snowflake stencil and glitter. The results were terrific. Then I packed it away never to be used again. Duh. I must fish it out. One day in the future, I would like to master sponging and brayering. These skills totally elude me. For now, anyway.
    Back to your cards and step by step instructions. Thank you. You have no idea how much I appreciate you, your craft and wordsmithing virtuosity and best of all, you share with us.ReplyCancel

  • SusanMarch 1, 2013 - 11:42 am

    Your wedding card is simply magnificent Becca — so rich and classy looking.
    Love the idea of using the embossing paste on the tiles — but as usual your creativity took you one step further and you created an amazing journal — wow!

    Love the wedding card. Are those ceramic tiles that you used? They don’t look that heavy, on the finished project. I might be envisioning something you are not using. I have not seen the embossing paste, I am curious to check that out. Sad you are not doing our daily bread.ReplyCancel

Hi there blog friends, I have another shaped card for you!! Purple is the order of the day :-)  I love taking all the new filigree dies and layering them for a lacey look.  I started out with Spellbinders™ Radiant Rectangles and cut so that I would have a hinge.  For my back side I cut the same combination but left out the middle piece so that I would have a solid back.   I did cut out an extra middle piece so that I would have something to layer with – I popped it up on two pieces of foam tape and stamped on it with Garden Gate Background Stamp.  On top of that I layered a JustRite Papercrafts custom die – Vintage Labels Three that is stamped with a matching stamp from For All You Do Vintage Labels Three.   I finished off by one more small little layer made with Spellbinders™ Standard Circles Small.  I filled it with a sweet sentiment from Circle of Love.

WRBF-3733-2012

Also, be sure to visit me tomorrow, March 1st, at noon (EST).   I have a die template to show that you probably have not seen before ;-).  It was not shown during the recent sneak peeks, so tomorrow I’m going to give you some ideas on how to use it; it’s truly a treasure.  It’s being shown as a part of the Explore Beyond Sneak Peek and Giveaway.  Yep, as a part of the Sneak Peek there is a giveaway for die templates, so you want to be sure to read the entire Sneak Peek post for the link to enter.  In addition as a bonus, (not part of the Blog Frenzy) leave a comment on my blog March 1st post after 12 o’clock noon or my March 2nd post after 12 o’clock noon (EST) and I’ll pick a name to receive the Filigree Topped Box with Cards I showed recently as well as some extra stamp set goodies I have stashed away.  I’ll pick a name on March 3rd.

Many of you had questions about how to make the filigree shaped card that I described as having a hinge, from the card I showed on this post https://www.amazingpapergrace.com/you-amaze-me/.  Today I have a quick tutorial on how to!   Even though I leave the insides of my cards blank, I try to finish off the insides so there is no tape showing or no raw ribbon edges – this video will walk you through that but you can save a step or two if the inside doesn’t matter to you.  Here’s the tutorial:

SUPPLIES I USED
Stamps:  JustRite Papercrafts –  For All You Do Vintage Labels ThreeCircle of LoveGarden Gate Background Stamp
Paper: Neenah Classic Crest – Natural White
Ink: Amuse – Amethyst, Heather, Grape
Accessories: JustRite Custom Die – Vintage Labels ThreeSpellbinders™ Radiant Rectangles, Spellbinders™ Standard Circles SmallBecca’s Bow Maker

JR_2013_NewSHIPPING_iconsmOh, and more great news – JustRite has new shipping rates!!  Check it out!!   Thanks so much for stopping by today – if you’re mildly curious about what I’ll be showing, see you tomorrow!!!

  • Dottie DavisFebruary 28, 2013 - 10:40 am

    As soon as I saw how you folded the edge of the cardstock in this marvelous tutorial the whole thing came together in my confused mind! On the card for Feb 28 did you lay the back side of the card flat and run the whole thing in your die machine so it would be solid? That card was a little confusing to picture (in this confused mind)! You have gotten so good at putting these combination of dies together to accomplish the right look! Thanks for all your work making the tutorial and answering our questions.ReplyCancel

    Thanks so much for the tutorial Becca! It helps a lot! Another question–I find that with the more intricate Spellbinders dies, I have to fun them through the machine several times. How many times do you have to run the die through the machine to cut through the second layer of the hinge?ReplyCancel

    This is just a note of thanks. I’ve been following you since 2/08 and need to let you know how you have inspired and reinvented my creative mind. Up to that time I was an average crafty person dabbing in an assortment of media but not seriously committed/in love with One media but stamping was something I used for class work and ‘primitive’ card making. How I found you was definitely God’s gift to me because from day 1 – card # 1 I am having a love affair with your blog. Your card layouts, designs, choice of colors & papers, ideas aside from cards and tutorials have been the finest lessons I needed and use daily. I LOVE your cards. I have built up 3 3″ binders filled with your daily offerings and use it like a bible/guidance/ inspirational ideas to follow. Makes me feel like a teenaged kid grasping at and in awe of your creative mind. I thank you for generously sharing your ideas. May you always be blessed.ReplyCancel

This made perfect sense, and I really appreciate this video tutorial. As you said, it can be used for other cards too. I realize it takes your time to prepare these, but oh, it is so enjoyed. Since you can’t come to my area and teach classes (or ?can you?!), your videos are the next best thing! Hope all is well in your world, and been loving the cards & posts.

WRBF-3731-2012
Sweet Blog Friends, today I get to participate in a very cool hop!!  In previous hops we would pop in with new goodies from Waltzingmouse Stamps.  This time, we’re all going back and picking one of our favorites and using it again.   Well, no way!  No way could just pick one favorite, I have entirely too many – but here are two that I got even before I was on the Design Team – they are the Dainty Doilies – Large Set  Dainty Doilies 2 – Small Set.   This hop is also a very special occasion because we are welcoming 9 new members to the design team.  They are all fixtures in the stamping world and have always represented Waltzingmouse so well and now they are all on the team!!  Please help us welcome them!!

WRBF-3730-2012

Everybody needs a doily set in their stash and this is my favorite!!  For my card I made a 5 x 7 card base and set up my layers using Spellbinders™ 5×7 Matting Basics B.   Then I simply cut the largest die template from Spellbinders™ Big Scalloped Circles LG and embellished it with the picot doily from the small set then I cut/embossed with the second largest die template from Scalloped Circles LG again and embellished it with the full doily from the large set.  I love embossing that doily with ivory and of course it had to be dressed up with pearls.  I finished off with lace, ribbon and roses and one small decorative corner from Spellbinders™ Vintage Lace Accents :-)

SUPPLIES I USED
StampsWaltzingmouse Stamps – Dainty Doilies – Large SetDainty Doilies 2 – Small Set
Paper: Neenah Classic Crest – Natural White, from my stash
Ink: Versamark, Versafine Onyx Black
Accessories: Spellbinders™ 5×7 Matting Basics B, Spellbinders™ Big Scalloped Circles LGSpellbinders™ Vintage Lace Accents, lace, pearls, Maya Roads Trinket Pin, seam binding, mulberry roses, Ivory Embossing Powder, Becca’s Bow Maker
