Spellbinders Floral Frame Grid

Hello Crafty Friends, and thanks so much for stopping by today! I’ve had the My Life in Pictures set from the Spellbinders March releases on my desk, and finally found time to play with it and I’m so happy with what I came up with! Let’s go ahead and run through the details.

I began this project by die cutting the frame portion of the set a few times from Neenah 110lb cardstock and black cardstock. I poked out the little edge pieces from the white and left them in place on the black, and adhered the frames together with liquid glue. I also die cut the smile sentiment in the set once from gold, twice from Neenah and once from black cardstock and adhered all of those together, offsetting the black layer ever so slightly.

I wanted to create a grid type pattern, so I pulled out several floral sets that had some smaller die cuts in them. I also pulled a few colors of Spellbinders cardstock as well. I’ll list all of those supplies at the bottom of this post for your convenience. Once everything was cut, I did some light ink blending on the pieces using Guava, Gravel and Field inks. Once that was complete, I assembled the flowers and set those aside while I assembled the rest of the card.

For assembly, I cut a panel of Neenah slightly smaller than my card base and began adhering the frame pieces on a diagonal, trimming off the excess when complete. I then adhered the leaves in place and then secured the flowers with a mix of foam squares and liquid glue. The panel was adhered to the card base, the sentiment was glued directly in place and gold metallic pearls were added to finish up.

A relatively simple card design, but a little time consuming with all of the die cutting. I happen to love die cutting so I didn’t mind it all, and I really love how this card turned out! I appreciate you stopping by, and I hope you have an absolutely wonderful day!
