I did this project to try out my spellbinders monthly box. I signed up for the big one for this release bc I love christmas in July products and this one did not disappoint. I highly recommend it if you are not in any of the clubs but this particular kit is 130$ so totally understandable with everything being so high priced these days if you wanted to start smaller and maybe move up. I love this kit because they always add a couple extra surprises and they even include a 10 pack of their excellent new cardstock in different colors to match the kit. For this I used the festive forest betterpress plate on spellbinders watercolor paper and used Gina K medium and dark spruce inks for some texture and they worked beautifully. I did red and gold splaters with metallic watercolors (from Amazon) I used gold thread from stampin up (retired) and Used strawberry slush ink to press the sentiment. This is a beautiful plate, slightly larger that an a2 card panel but sized perfectly. Spellbinders press plates can also be foiled with their glimmer and I will be trying that next bc I think it will be absolutely beautiful.
I will be entering my project in the following challenges:
