Spellbinders Stylish Ovals Collection Floral 60th Birthday Shaker Card

My partners sister was having her 60th birthday & I knew I needed to create something memorable for the big milestone.

I had some assembled pieces left from my previous card with this set, so I created a few more and changed up the layout a bit to suit the occasion

Inspired by a card that Cathy Zielskie made, I used the My Favorite Things numbers die set to make the shaker focal point.

I decided to go with a hot fouled sentiment from a spellbinders set I had, to tie in a bit more gold on the card.

Spellbinders Be Bold Blooms

When I first started crafting I was intimidated by die sets that had lots of little pieces. I have grown my skills, but I still challenge myself.

This set is easy to cut, but. I got a little overwhelmed trying to choose a color palette. So, I decided to just recreate the project that was shown on the card for this set.

Using a mix of My Favorite Things & Spellbinders card stock, I created a direct CASE (“Copy And Share Everything”) of the product project example. The base card stock color is Sea Salt from Taylored Expressions.

Thanks for stopping by!! I hope you like it, and are inspired to create something too!

Spellbinders Stylish Ovals Collection Floral Hello You

I was inspired to pick up this set from the Spellbinders Sylish Oval collection again, to recreate another card from the Crop & Creste Delivered event. Using the same two color ways as my previous post I used only one layer from the Infinity plate and kept the floral spray in one piece this time.

I die cut the “Hello You” sentiment twice, and layered it together to give it a bit of dimension.

I used a pre foiled sentiment from a Pink Fresh Studios sentiment ephemera pack that I had in my stash so that I could vary the sentiments for this design.

HELPFUL HINT: Use a shim with these dies! I just grab a scrap piece of card stock and lay it on top of my die cut ‘sandwich’ to add just a bit of extra pressure that is needed to cut all the way through every detail in these plates.
