Crafting with the Spellbinders Sealed 3D Botanical Collection has been an absolute delight. In this post, I’m excited to share three elegant cards that showcase the beauty and versatility of these products. Each card features unique designs, intricate details, and a touch of gold foil for a sophisticated finish. Let’s explore the step-by-step process of creating these cards.
Sophisticated Best Wishes Card
Intricate Layers and Elegant Foiling
For the first card, I aimed to create a sophisticated look with layered labels and elegant foiling. Using the Scallop Labels Die, I cut out labels from teal pattern paper and pink striped pattern paper. The background features a floral pattern paper, enhanced with gold foiling using the Timeless 5×7 Card Front Etched Die. Foiling with dies adds a beautiful, intricate detail.
Layering the Labels
I adhered the large teal label at the top center of the floral background. Next, I added a smaller pink striped label, creating a border effect along the bottom of the teal label. This layering technique adds depth and interest to the card.
Foiled Sentiment and Floral Arrangements
For the sentiment, I used the New Beginnings Timeless Sentiments Press Plate to foil “Best Wishes Today and Always” onto pink cardstock. The foiled sentiment was then adhered to a label across the center. To decorate, I created a floral arrangement using the Club Blooms Die Set, with pink flowers and light teal leaves. I added vellum and gold mirror cardstock leaves for variation.
Finishing Touches
To complete the card, I added a wax seal created with the Forest Mushrooms Wax Seal Stamp and a mix of black and light blue wax beads. I painted the wax seal with a pink paint pen for an extra touch of elegance.
Elegant Thank You Card
Bold Labels and Striped Background
For the second card, I used the Fresh Picked Labels Die to cut a large label from teal pattern paper. The background is a pink striped pattern paper, filling the A2 card front. The combination of bold labels and stripes creates a striking design.
Creating the Sentiment Tag
I cut another tag from the striped pattern paper for the sentiment. Using the Always You Timeless Sentiments Press Plate, I foiled “Thanks For Everything” onto a smaller pink label and adhered it to the striped tag. This layered look adds dimension and interest to the card.
Floral Cluster and Wax Seal
Similar to the first card, I decorated this card with a floral cluster created using the Club Blooms Die Set. The flowers and leaves add a touch of nature and elegance. To finish, I added a wax seal created with the Peony Butterfly Wax Seal Stamp and black wax bead, highlighting the design with a gold paint pen.
Charming “The Best is Yet to Come” Card
Delicate Scallop Labels and Gold Foiling
For the last card, I returned to the Scallop Labels Die. I cut the background from pink striped pattern paper, slightly smaller than the card front. I foiled the background with gold using the Timeless 5×7 Card Front Etched Die, adding a luxurious touch.
Layering for Depth
I added a scalloped label coming down from the top center. For the sentiment, I cut another tag from teal pattern paper and layered it with a pink label die-cut. Using the New Beginnings Sentiments Press Plate, I foiled “The Best is yet to Come” with gold foil, creating an inspiring message.
Floral Cluster and Wax Seal
As with the previous cards, I used a floral cluster to decorate this card. The combination of pink flowers and teal leaves, along with vellum and gold mirror cardstock leaves, adds a beautiful, cohesive look. To finish, I used a wax seal created with the Forest Mushrooms Wax Seal Stamp and black wax beads, highlighted with a gold paint pen.
Conclusion
Creating these cards with the Spellbinders Sealed 3D Botanical Collection was a delightful experience. The intricate dies, elegant wax seals, and stunning foiling techniques allowed me to create cards that are both beautiful and meaningful. I hope these projects inspire you to explore the possibilities with the Spellbinders collection and create your own elegant cards. Happy crafting!
