Sending Hugs
Posted by Becca Feeken on Monday, June 29th, 2009
Greetings!! In need of a card for a friend who is having a hard time, I set out to find something in the new selections from JustRite Stampers that would fit the bill. From the JustRite Tiny Words Borders and Centers set I narrowed my choices down to Sending Hugs although several of the other sentiments work for this occasion too!! As you know, I am really smitten with the Spellbinders Pendants and I’m especially excited that they stack so well between the items in each set, with other sets, with Nestibilities and with the JustRite borders and centers!
In this case I started out on the bottom with Spellbinders Standard Circles Large, which serves as a base. Then I layered on the Spellbinders Eyelets Pendant, followed by the Spellbinders Renaissance Hearts Pendant with the center cut out. I folded the Pendant 8 times then glued the ruffled pendant into place with glue dots. Next I layered two of the Renaissance Hearts Centers with glue dots as well. I stamped my JustRite Tiny Words Border and punched it out with my 1 1/4" round punch then stamped the JustRite Tiny Words Center and punched it out with my 1" round punch. Using three of the Renaissance Hearts Accent Pieces, I snipped out the center with scissors then used each accent as a buckle, holding it into place with a corsage pin. The corsage pin was longer than I needed it to be so I cut them shorter with my wire cutters.

A beautiful gift for your friend Becca, how thoughtful of you!
I’m running out of adjectives to describe your cards and your talents. Amazing!!
Good evening, Becca. As you say it is wonderful that all the new Spellbinders dies mix and match so well with many of the others and it is shown to perfection with your card here. Those buckles are so cute!
I love what you create with the Spellbinders dies. You are very creative!
Where did you find the botoms for the corsage pins? I love the way you used them.
Thanks,

Amazing! But inquiring minds want to know: How do you mail your multi-layered cards? Do you make special envelopes?
Wowzers, another masterpiece. It will be well cherished by the recipient.
This is just breathtaking. You are truly a very talented lady.. I so look forward to all you creations.
So pretty, the buckle effect is so neat as a border treatment with the ribbon, lovely image too!
This card is absolutely georgeous…..love the colors and how you used the Spellbinders dies. You are such an inspiration!!!!
You should have done all the Pendant examples. Every one that you make is more stunning than the next one. Guess I’m going to be spending some money REAL soon. Love how you cut the hat pin to fit, too. Gosh, you just keep coming up with one good idea after another.
Hugs.

Jeepers, Becca, this card is absolutely inspirational. Now, I’m not saying that all your cards aren’t, because they are, but something about this has brought me back several times and now I’ve finally commented.
You are by far my biggest paper crafting heroine!! =)
Just when do you come up for air? Your cards continue to inspire me - sometimes giving me great ideas and other times I just copy it but always give credit to you on Scrapbook.com where I post my things.
I believe that you are truly divinely inspired. God has given you a wonderful gift. Thanks for sharing not only your credations but your wonderful quotes.
