    Hello Becca,

    I don’t think I’ve ever posted a comment on your blog before, even though I am visiting every day (sometimes more then once).
    Your creativity and talent are stunning, and I am always left speechless when I see them and never seem to find the proper words to express how much I admire you and your work.

    I promise to be more talkative this year and make my presence known. :)

    If you have the time, please stop by my blog (http://madarom.blogspot.com/2009/01/tagged-and-awarded.html) – there’s an award for you in there.
    Your blog is truly fabulous.

    Hugs,
    MadaReplyCancel

    Hi, I just love your style. I’ve only been making cards a few months and have the Big Shot but love all the dies at spellbinders. Do they work well in sizzix / how to use with a big shot? Wasn’t sure I can afford to buy the machine too – but if I did I wasn’t sure for example if I got the machine if I need extra plats/ extended for let’s say the multi-rectangle group of dies.

    Again – love ya staff!ReplyCancel

One of the soaring highlights in blogland last year was the huge release of new Spellbinders dies. I scheduled time every night to check in with each blogger that was making a reveal of a new Spellbinders die and absolutely swooned when I saw the fabulous dies that were slated to be released. Spellbinders is celebrating their 5 year anniversary and the celebration will be another huge unveiling of new dies. There is an opportunity for you to win, and win big! I am pleased to be able to share details of the amazing Spellbinders Blog Frenzy!

Here’s what you will want to know: These dies can only be seen on Spellbinders Designer blogs and there will be 16 days chocked full of sneak peeks. Today there will be a drawing for the die template I am showing you plus all the sets that have been revealed since the beginning of the Spellbinders Blog Frenzy on January 5, 2009. The prizes are progressive, each day an additional die is added to the daily giveaway list for a grand total of 16 dies on the 16th day of reveals. You will want to take care and read my entire post carefully, from beginning to end, to make sure your entry is correct, ensuring your eligibility to win.

WINNERS WILL BE ANNOUNCED ON SPELLBINDERS BLOG at www.SpellbindersPaperArts.com/blog

Without further ado, I am so pleased to be able to reveal die cut templates that absolutely had me doing a little happy dance!  The awe-inspiring Spellbinders has done it again – I present to you two new die template sets. 

LG Octagons, SKU #S4-185 and LG Scalloped Octagons, SKU #S4-187.  MSRP – $24.99 each

The octagon is such a complex shape full of possibilities.  I knew it would be one of my favorites because it’s a shape that I encountered often in both origami and quilting – areas that always lend inspiration to my stamping.  The LG Octagons come in a set of 7 nested dies that are symmetrical in a circular shape with eight flat sides.  The largest die measures 4" x 4" while the smallest measures 3/4" x 3/4".  The SKU # of the LG Octagons is S4-185 and the MSRP is $24.99.  The LG Scalloped Octagons come in a set of 6 nested dies that are symmetrical in a circular shape with four scallops on each of the eight sides.  The last scallop on each side is the first scallop of the next side.  Each scalloped octagon, regardless of size, has 24 scallops.  The largest die measures 4 1/2" x 4 1/2" while the smallest measures 1" x 1".  The SKU # of the LG Scalloped Octagons is S4-187 and the MSRP is $24.99.

I have two projects to share with you today.  On the first project, I’ll share with you how I made it and on the second, a video tutorial will be forthcoming.  When I received my dies, I was intrigued by both shapes together and that led me to the inspiration for this “Give Thanks” card.  The straight edges of the LG Octagons crisply illuminate the feminine scallops of the LG Scalloped Octagons; the two shapes mesh very well.

My Many Thanks card is a large card measuring 7 ¾" high by 5 ½" wide and is designed to be sent using a 6" x 9" catalog envelope.  We’ll make this card by building up from the bottom.

Step by Step

1.  Score in half, a piece of cardstock measuring 15 ½" high by 5 ½" wide. 

Tip – if you do not have paper larger than 12" you can still make a larger card by seaming the pieces.  Cut one piece at 10" x 5 ½", score one at 7 3/4".  Cut the other piece at 7 ¾" x 5 ½".  Allow the flap to overlap and adhere with the seam showing on the inside, back of the card.  Cover this with design paper on the inside of your card.

2.  Smudge the edges of the paper with distress ink – I used brushed corduroy. 

3.  Cut a solid piece of cardstock to measure 7" high x 5" wide.

4.  Cut a patterned piece of paper to measure  6 7/8" x 4 7/8".  Smudge the edges with distress ink and glue the design paper on top.  Attach to base with pop dots.

5.  Cut a small strip of paper 5 ¼" wide by 2" and punch with a border punch.   Trim down to a 1" height and attach along the top edge of your card.  Smudge with distress ink and add pearls for embellishment.  Attach with pop dots.

6.  Cut/emboss the first layer of medallion using the 4 ½" x 4 ½" LG Scalloped Octagon and the 2 ½" x 2 ½" LG Octagon at the same time

7.  Cut/emboss the second layer of the medallion using 4" x 4" LG Octagon and the 3" x 3" LG Octagon at the same time.  Smudge with distress ink.

8.  Cut/emboss the inside layer of the medallion using the 1 7/8" x 1 7/8" LG Octagon

 

9.  Stamp your sentiment then assemble the medallion with pop dots, taking care to thread a 5” piece of ribbon through the top layer of the medallion, securing it with a button.

Card Recipe:
Stamps:  The Paper Company Studio
Paper:  Base  – The Paper Company, Blonde Columns, Design Paper – The Paper Loft: Grandma’s House, Bazzill – Capers
Ink:  Ranger Distress Ink – Peeled Paint, Ranger Distress Ink – Brushed Corduroy
Tools:  Spellbinders Wizard Die Cutter, Spellbinders LG Octagons S4-185, Spellbinders LG Scalloped Octagons S4-187, Martha Stewart Cornice Edge Punch,
Accessories:  Michaels Pearls, JBH Button, Offray Grosgrain Ribbon, Hobby Lobby Cream Satin Ribbon, Pop Dots

My second project is a card and gift box ensemble.  You know I love medallions and I have been dying to create one using Spellbinders products.  This one is easily put together and because you can use any size LG Scalloped Octagon, S4-187,  it will span many different box and card sizes.  The birthday card is 7" x 5" and the medallion measures 3 1/4" x 3 1/4"; the gift box measures 4 1/4" x 4 1/4" x 4 1/4".

Although I mentioned using the Wizard in my card recipe, I wanted to make sure you know it’s very simple to use Spellbinders die templates with other popular die cut machines currently on the market.  Instructions and sandwich recipes come with new die cuts and that information is readily available on the Spellbinders website.  In fact, if you are a visual person like I am, there are three wonderful videos by Spellbinders that show how easy it is to get fabulous results using their universal dies.

Check them out on their website at www.SpellbindersPaperArts.com/videos
