Spellbinders January 13th Blog Hop + Giveaway!

Hello, crafty friends!

I'm thrilled to be joining Spellbinders for the January 2021 Clubs Inspiration Blog Hop today. Spellbinders is celebrating all their Club Kits in shop for January 2021.

If you arrived here from the talented, Dilay Nacar's Blog, then you are on the right track. If this is your first stop, then you will want to start at the beginning, the Spellbinders Blog. We've got tons of inspiration and giveaways for you on the hop today, so keep reading till the end of this post for more information.

I have a 3D Vignette Card to share for the hop today using the Amazing Paper Grace – January 2021 Die of the Month Set. In case you missed, it I shared a Card on my blog few days ago using this month's "Mini 3D Vignette Valentine’s Mailbox" Set, which you can check out HERE.

This Mini 3D Vignette Valentine’s Mailbox functions just like a 3D Vignette, except for this one is a “mini”.  The front of the mailbox has an aperture that you can layer with a second die cut of the mailbox front and add a surprise message or photo.

For my project, I die cut the front of the mailbox using the Mini 3D Vignette Valentine’s Mailbox from Lemon Yellow Textured Cardstock. The solid mailbox door was cut from Light Pink Cardstock. I die cut the photograph to add inside the mailbox using the same die and then adhered it down to my mailbox outline frame die cut. I assembled the different pieces together following the tutorial by Becca Feeken. 

The different stems were also cut from Lemon Yellow Cardstock using different dies from the Mini 3D Vignette Valentine’s Mailbox, while the hearts, mini envelopes, and hearts were die cut from Light Pink Cardstock, Gold Mirror Cardstock, and White Cardstock. I stamped mini sentiments using Licorice Black Ink on several of these die cuts to add interest. You can customize in any way and style you'd like. I designed this for a dear friend's wedding anniversary, so I used sentiments which would go with my theme.

 I decorated the front of the mailbox using the decorative tag from the Shapeabilities Grand Dome 3D Card Etched Dies which I die cut from Lemon Yellow Cardstock and Gold Mirror Cardstock. The oval for the centre was cut from Pink Cardstock and i stamped my sentiment on it using Licorice Black Ink. I popped the sentiment tag to the panel suing foam tape for dimension. The lil' flowers are from an older Amazing Paper Grace die, and I added some mini fillers and rose buds to accentuate the design. 

This was actually very simple to make and I really enjoyed the creative process too. I decorated the back of the card too for more interest. I adhered a Light Pink Cardstock die cut behind the filigree frame and that's about it. My card was done!
