Slimline Camera Card for Autumn - Spellbinders APG and Small Die of the Month

 

Celebrate the Colors of Autumn and Smile - Amazing Paper Grace Dies for Slimline Cards

Spellbinders Amazing Paper Grace ( APG) Die of the Month (October) makes me smile...for real.  The clever design is a camera and can be used to create a dimensional folding card or an embellishment for a card.  I can't think of a better time than Autumn to feature a die shaped as a camera.  There is so much beauty in the colors of the season and a perfect time to smile, say cheese, and snap a photo.   

The slimline card I am featuring today uses both the Spellbinders Small Die of the Month (layering leaves die) and the APG die this month:

Spellbinders Small Die of the Month Membership

I love making slimline cards lately because they are different.  The camera die is the perfect width for a slimline.  

The card is embellished with Buttons Galore's Autumn Sparkling Sentiments.  These are brand new small wooden glittered sentiments for cards. tags, ATC's...well actually any project. They add a fun bedazzling feature to your crafty projects.  

They are 1/2in wide and approx. 1 1/2in long.  

Haul out the Raffia

Whenever I make something with an autumn theme, I am so inclined to haul out the raffia.  I can't help myself.  I tried to resist, but the raffia won out and it magically wrapped itself around the camera lens.  The leaves from  Spellbinders Small Die for October 2020  and a button from Buttons Galore's Button Basics - Fall Festival  collection finish off the raffia bow.  

Here are a few more close ups of the camera.  

As always, the Spellbinders dies for the month are exclusively available at Spellbinders through the monthly subscription.  

Thanks and Happy crafting.

Spellbinders Tool 'n One -"Must Have" Crafting Tool

I love Spellbinders dies, but do not like the little paper pieces that get stuck in the dies.  That's why Spellbinders Tool 'n One crafting tool tops the list of my favorite crafting tools, always found on my craft table.  

 Now Spellbinders has a new and improved Spellbinders® Tool 'n One.  

 In Spellbinders words, " It is a portable tool that performs multiple craft functions, including piercing, paper removal and many more! In addition, it provides a unique storage solution. The Tool 'n One attachments are housed within the pod of its main body. The tool easily crosses over for other hobbyists using small pieces and parts such as airplane models and miniature houses."

Tool Includes:

• Tool in One
• Brush Tip - Easily clean the tiniest paper bits from etched dies.
• Straight & Angled Piercing Tips - Clean out chads left in dies, separate backing from adhesives or paper pierce designs.

I created the background of this card by blending a variety of Distress Inks onto Specialty Stamping Paper  with Broad Blending Brushes.  After I was satisfied with the colors and the inking, I lightly misted with water and let air dry.  I love the effect water has on the Distress Inks as it activates the pigments.  Very cool.   

Here is the list of Distress Inks used: 

Tim Holtz - Distress Ink Pads - Crackling Campfire

Tim Holtz Distress Ink Pads - Spiced Marmalade

 Tim Holtz - Distress Ink Pads - Rusty Hinge

Tim Holtz Distress Ink Pads - Mustard Seed
