It’s day five of our Sweet 16th Birthday Week celebration, and we have saved some BIG things for this final day! First, our friends at Spellbinders are here to inspire us using their newest product inspiration with three different cards, and there are five new giveaways up for grabs, including the two biggest of the week! Let’s get today’s inspiration started!

…………………….

Hello, SCT friends! It’s Kim Kesti here, and I’m very excited to join everyone at Spellbinders in wishing Scrapbook and Cards Today a very happy 16th birthday! In honor of such a grand occasion, I would love to share three birthday cards created with a variety of Spellbinders dies. Let’s dive right in!

I just love our Bold Blooms die set, and it pairs so beautifully with the Sentiments Labels, and wonderfully detailed Circular Stitch Background die. This background die is amazing whether you add real stitching or just let it shine as it does on this card!

Next, another fresh take on the Bold Blooms die set! This time we’ve created a little drama with the darker cardstock background and that twinkle of glimmer by using the Sentiments for Everyday Glimmer Hot Foil Plate. Have you joined the Glimmer Hot Foil party yet? It seems no card is complete without at least a small amount of Glimmer on it. So elegant!

And finally, my favorite card of all! The Color Block Happy Birthday die is such a gem, and super easy to use. You can die cut multiple colors and end up with a whole stash of super fun, bright birthday cards. How fun is that?

Thanks so much for taking a look at my favorite birthday cards! When you take the time to create a handmade card for someone, it is sure to spark joy in their lives. Who’s next on your birthday list? Be sure to find more inspiration using our latest products at the links below!

Wow, what gorgeous cards from our friends at Spellbinders! Since it’s Friday, why don’t we share our grand prize giveaways first, beginning with the amazing Glimmer Hot Foil System that Kim mentioned above!

GRAND PRIZE #1

Take your cardmaking to shiny new heights with the Glimmer Hot Foil System! With the Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil System, you can add stunning and eye-catching foil details to any card or other project. This exciting system was designed to be used with your Platinum or Platinum 6 Die cutting & embossing machine and is also compatible with many other die cutting machines including the Big Shot, Vagabond and many others.

The Glimmer Hot Foil System is easy to use. Just heat the platform and chosen plate, create your foiling sandwich, and then run the platform through your die cutting machine. Foiled elements can be added to various materials, such as cardstock, fabric, ribbon, leather, and more. You can even create foiled designs using some of your existing metal dies.
