Oh Joyful Day collection - Christmas Shaker Tags trio

 Hi crafty friends! I have a trio of shaker Christmas tags to share today. As soon I saw the new tag die set from the Essentials Holiday collection from Spellbinders I just had to make a set of shaker tags! They are all decorated with elements from the new collection Oh Joyful Day which features a card making kit, Scrapbooking Kit and several individual addon products like sentiment stickers and chipboard embellishments.
ESSENTIAL TAGS DIE SET AND OH JOYFUL DAY COLLECTION
 
To make my shaker tags, I used the largest tag die from the new Essential Tags die set as the base. I made a frame with the largest and 3rd largest die. I then die cut the "twine tab" and adhered it at the top. I filled my tags with a variety of shaker elements from my stashI decorated the tags with elements from the Card Making kit and the Oh Joyful Day Cardstock Ephemera pack. I love love the colors in the collection and the ephemera! If you missed the cards I made using this collection, you can find them HERE.
Aren't these fun? There are so many elements in the kit you could make as many tags as your heart desires! 
Tag 1
Tag 2
Tag 3
It was hard to stop at just 3, but I have another fall wax seal card I'm working on and didn't want to get too distracted. I love how these turned out! 
Thank you so much for stopping by and have a great day!

Autumn is here! Falling Leaves plate and September Wax Seal of the month -2 card designs

 Hi everyone! Today I'm sharing 2 fun fall cards. Fall is here whether we're ready or not, and this month Spellbinders has a great new fall collection called Falling Leaves and the Monthly Club kits also have a fall theme.
First up is a card using some of the Falling Leaves collection with a few added fall accent die cuts.
AUTUMN RAIN PRESS PLATE AND STENCIL BUNDLE

One of my FAVORITE things to do with the BetterPress plates is to foil them! I love how the BP plates can be pressed or foiled. Given their multi-use, I wonder if Spellbinders will continue to make them and quietly stop making Hot Foil plates?
I chose to foil the Autumn Rain plate with matte gold foil and colored it in with the coordinating stencil set (which has 5 stencils). I used a blue teal color for the umbrella for a nice pop of color and stenciled the leaves with a nice green turning to red. I added some fall leaf die cuts with a simple 1 layer sunflower as accents.
Next I have a fall card using the September Wax Seal of the Month, the seal stamp is called "Falling Leaves" and is an oval shape with a variety of fall leaves. I used the Autumn Mix of wax beads and highlighted the leaves with my DecoColor gold pen.
SEPTEMBER 2024 WAX SEAL OF THE MONTH AND AUTUMN SEALED SPRIGS
 
I used a couple of my older Sealed Stems sets with the wax seal. I love all of these stems and they can be used without wax seals. A lovely bow, circle sentiment, lots of possibilities. I wanted to use some of the fall papers that I had in my stash and used the patterned and solids from the paper pad.
I love how these turned out!

SBC Fest Day 2 inspiration - Thanks floral card

 Hi everyone! I have a fun card to share. This weekend was the 5th annual SBC Fest hosted by Scrapbook.com. SBC Fest is a 2-day virtual papercrafting event with card making and scrapbooking classes by some of your favorite crafty instructors like Simon Hurley, Kristie Marcotte, Jamie Pate and more! The class videos are available FOREVER so if you can watch them any time at your convenience.
Here is a link to the SBC Fest page which shows each instructor, their class supplies list, and class homework. This is my 3rd year and I love to watch and play along with products I have in my stash.

As an affiliate, SBC gave me early access to the instructors cards and after seeing their projects and checking the class supply lists, I was excited to see I had the all the die sets that Erin Thompson used in her class! And you know I love me a floral die cut card. Be sure to catch her class on the replay! 💖
Here is my card inspired by her wonderful class project
SUNNY LANE FLORAL AND THANK YOU SENTIMENTS DIE SETS

I kept the basic layout of her card, sentiment and general flower placement. I changed out the papers used and I added patterned papers along with solids for my floral die cuts. I also changed the background to be white cardstock embossed by the Tiny Dots folder and went with silver instead of gold for my arches.
I think it's pretty amazing that Scrapbook.com puts on a free 2 day virtual event. I consider myself a seasoned card maker and I learn LOTS of tips and tricks with every class I watch. If you find yourself wanting to purchase any of the class supplies, be sure to use the code SBCFEST5 at checkout for 10% off.
AND add those freebies too! Here are 2 of the 4 freebies offered right now!
TIP: add the freebies one at a time. Once in your cart, add 1 freebie, then leave the cart and go back in and add the next.
