Spellbinders - Spotlight Frames and Florals

Hello there.  I’m sharing a couple of simple cards today featuring products from Spellbinders (SB)  Spotlight Frames and Florals collection by Lisa Horton.  I used Layered Anemones dies, Woven Lattice Texture die and A Little Hello Sentiments stamp and dies for both card.


The flowers and lattice (love this die) were die cut from white, the flower centers from black and the foliage from green cardstock.  Grey dye ink was applied to the flowers for shading.  Wilted Violet distress ink (DI) was ink blended around the centers.


The hello stamp is a single stamp with numerous sub-sentiments that complement the word hello.  Some of them work on their own, and I used one of them.  The sentiments were white heat embossed on black cardstock, then die cut out with the matching single die in just one pass through the die cutting machine.  Assembled the card onto a sand colour panel then mounted onto a white card base to finish.  


For my second card, I wanted the large layered “hello” die (love this die too!) be the focus.  Just like the first card, all pieces were die cut from white or black cardstock.  


Ink blending with DIs was used again to colour the white pieces.  

blue - Blueprint Sketch 
yellow - Scattered Straw, Wilted Violet


Assembled the card onto a white woodgrain panel and applied clear shimmer to the blue and yellow coloured pieces for some sparkle to finish.

Just love both versions of your anemones with lattice, Trina - so pretty in white on sand for card one & with the trio of yellow blossoms on card two!!

I've been admiring these Spellbinder dies for a while now. Both of your cards use them to great effect, and demonstrate how versatile they can be. I love the bright yellow flowers and bold, blue sentiment against the white on white background! Thanks for sharing with us at Color Hues!

Two beautiful cards, Trina. I love the white on white with the texture plate and of course, you have colored the Anemones beautifully. I am enjoying this release as well. Thanks for linking up with us at Color Hues.

Two great cards using those dies. Love the use of the sand coloured base in the first - it's my favourite of the two.

I don't know why I haven't seen this post! Both your cards are amazing and so professional, your own style never fail!
Those Anemones are just wonderful, love them so much and your way to give them shades is so inspiring. I always struggle with white, it's not easy give it dimensions. The centres of the flowers have a stunning 3D look. The lattice die seems a must have for clean and simple cards, but I think also for layering, just put also this one in my endless wishlist! :D LOL
