Tuesday Tutorial - Combining Spellbinders

Hi Everybody,

For todays card I am going back to some of the older dies that you may have in your collection and I am combining several sets to produce my design.  I have used a pretty lilac and white colour scheme and added in the flowers.
Spellbinders Supplies:
  • S6-001 5x7 Matting Basics A
  • S6-002 5x7 Matting Basics B
  • S6-012 5x7 Mystical Embrace

  • S4-646 Labels 56
  • S4-328 Foliage
  • SEL-009 Chicken Wire EF
  • S1-026 Flying Bugs
  • PL-001 Platinum Die Cutting Machine
Other Supplies:
  • Flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts
  • Glitter from Glitter Magic
  • Card from Papermill Direct
Instructions:
With die #7 from Matting Basics A cut two pieces in white card to create the base
With die #7 from Matting Basic B cut a layer in lilac and emboss this layer with a 5x7 folder
With the largest die in Mystical Embrace cut a layer in white
With die #3 from the Deco Elements cut one in white
And with die #4 from the [plain label;s cut one more in white and emboss the top layer
Stamp and emboss a sentiment
Cut tow butterflies from Flying Bugs
Cut several large leaves from Foliage
Select the flowers to match your colour scheme.

Add the layers to the card with foam pads between the layers
Arrange the flowers and sprinkle with glitter
