Spellbinders, Photosynthesis by Simon Hurley

I’ve got a new video on my YouTube channel today showing how I made this pretty card with the latest Spellbinders release by Simon Hurley. I’ve used the Ceramic Vases and Floral Stems die sets, along with the Must-Have Sentiments glimmer foil plate.

You can view the video here:

I also made a couple more cards with some of the other flowers and vases in the die set –

You can find product links both below, and of course more details are in the video.

Spellbinders Four Petal Collection

Another stunning collection from Spellbinders. So many beautiful elements to this collection.

I’ve used 3 different sets from the collection – the Four Petal Floral embossing folder, the Thank You Floral die set, and the Making Me Smile Glimmer Foil plate.

For my first card, I kept it very simple. The embossing folder is so stunning I didn’t want to cover it at all. So I just highlighted it with some gold wax, and added a sentiment (from the Thank You Floral die set). It’s a big embossing folder (this card is 5×7), so you can easily just use parts of it if you like.

For my next card, I decided to use the florals from the Thank You floral set, then add just a strip from the embossing folder (and I kept it white so it didn’t distract from the flowers). I also used one of the foiled sentiments. I used some of the Spellbinders foil in a lovely pewter colour.

For my final card, I used the foliage from the Four Petal Thank you Floral, but I didn’t quite use it as intended – it’s intended that you’d place the flowers on the little round areas, but I thought they also looked like berries, so I went for a very simple look. Again I used the embossing folder in the background in white for a subtle look, and one of the foiled sentiments (this time in gold). This is a smaller 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 card so illustrates how you can use a part of the embossing folder.

If you are in the UK, Spellbinders now have a UK website you can order from.
