More Spellbinders Embellishments


I once again am making embellishments with new dies.  This is probably the last "new dies" post for awhile, because I have long since spent my paper crafting allowance - but they're so much fun!

Athletic Apparel: (pictured above) - I LOVE this set of dies!  They are SO versatile.  These were made by die cutting from white & then coloring with ink (red = colorbox, blue & orange = distress oxide, lavender = teardrop, orchid = particraft.  I used numbers from the coordinating Jersey Numbers set that has both number and mat.  The red and white shirt depicts a "button up" and was the one I had to look at a video to figure out how to use.  Often used for baseball uniforms, this one simply takes the basic shirt (blue without the offsets) and adds the long button up piece on top of the original collar.  For the blue shirt, I cut two each of collar & cuffs & left one white - offsetting just a little as you see in the picture.  The lavender is a sleeveless style with golf-type neckline.  The word "Friend" was stamped from HOTP Heartfelt Greetings.

Sporting Goods Set:


This die set certainly covers MANY different sports.  I can see using all except the lacrosse equipment - since I don't know anyone who plays or watches that sport.  

Woodland Scene:

This is a fun little set for creating small Christmas scenes.

Be Bold Blooms:

I made flowers from another set which I can't remember at the moment, but this last set is Be Bold Blooms.  I've been waiting for it to go on sale ever since it was recommended by a friend.  It DOES make a fun variety of floral elements.
