Step into the enchanting world of card making with the latest additions to Spellbinders by the Simon Hurley Spring Sampler Collection. Featuring the Spring Bunnies Press Plate and Die Set, Spring Magnolias Press Plate and Die Set and Woven 3D Embossing Folder.

Easter Bunny Delight

Focal Image Brilliance:

The images from Easter Bunny BetterPress plates provided the enchanting focal point for this card. Using Porcelain BetterPress card panels, I pressed and brought to life charming bunny images, setting the stage for a delightful Easter scene.

Coloring and Diecutting:

With Prismacolor pencils, I infused the bunnies with soft hues, imbuing them with warmth and character. After meticulously coloring, I used coordinating dies to cut out the images, ensuring precise and intricate detailing.

Background Creation:

Employing the Punch and Pierce Cover Plate die, I fashioned a delightful background using light pink and grey cardstock. With careful attention to detail, I created a serene backdrop that perfectly complemented the whimsical Easter theme.

Assembly and Sentiment:

The final touches involved assembling the scene, strategically placing each element for maximum visual impact. The pressed and die-cut “Happy Easter” sentiment added a touch of charm and sentimentality to the composition.

Golden Easter Wishes

Focal Image Brilliance:

Once again, the Easter Bunny BetterPress plates took center stage, infusing the card with Easter cheer and whimsy. The leftover bunny images served as the focal point, radiating beauty and elegance.

Coloring and Diecutting:

With Prismacolor pencils, I meticulously colored the bunny and the eggs, creating depth and dimensions. After coloring, I used coordinating dies to cut out the images, ensuring precise detailing and crisp edges.

Background Design:

Utilizing the Punch and Pierce Cover Plate die with brushed gold cardstock, I created a regal backdrop for the butterfly, adding a touch of glamour and sophistication to the composition.

Assembly and Sentiment:

Carefully assembling the elements, I placed the bunny on the right bottom of the card, ensuring it took pride of place. The pressed and die-cut “Happy Easter” sentiment added a heartfelt touch, completing the composition with warmth and charm.

Magnolia Blossom Beauty

Focal Image Brilliance:

Transitioning to the Spring Magnolias press plate, I adorned a porcelain card panel with BetterPress images, capturing the delicate beauty of magnolia blossoms.

Coloring and Diecutting:

With Prismacolor pencils, I brought the magnolia blossoms to life, infusing them with soft, pink hues. After coloring, I used coordinating dies to cut out the blossoms, ensuring intricate detailing and precise edges.

Background Creation:

Utilizing the Punch and Pierce Cover Plate die with pink cardstock, I created a charming background that perfectly complemented the delicate magnolia blossoms, adding depth and dimension to the composition.

Assembly and Sentiment:

With meticulous care, I assembled the elements, arranging the magnolia blossoms against the background for maximum visual impact. The pressed and die-cut “Happy Mother’s Day” sentiment added a heartfelt touch, completing the composition with warmth and sentimentality.

Foil and Bloom

Focal Image Brilliance:

I foiled the Spring Magnolia flowers using gold foil which served as the focal point for this card, capturing the imagination with its intricate detailing and whimsical charm.

Coloring and Diecutting:

With copic markers, I infused the butterfly with pinks and yellow hues, creating a striking contrast against the embossed fog cardstock background. After coloring, I used coordinating dies to cut out the flowers, ensuring precise detailing and crisp edges.

Background Creation:

Employing the Woven 3D Embossing folder on fog cardstock for the background, I created a serene backdrop for the floral arrangements adding texture and depth to the composition.

Assembly and Sentiment:

With meticulous attention to detail, I assembled the elements, arranging the flowers against the background for maximum visual impact. The foiled and die-cut “Happy Mother’s Day” sentiment took pride of place, completing the composition with warmth and sentimentality.
