Spellbinders | March 2024 Monthly Club Kits


Hello again, crafty friends! Today, I'm sharing projects featuring the March 2024 Monthly Club Kits from Spellbinders. My first card features the "Stitched Read & Sip" Stitching Die of the Month and the "Sketched Lines" Glimmer Hot Foil Kit of the Month. Club Kits close on the 27th of each month so get them while you can!


I used similar colours on both cards, give or take, and I made one that was lighter and another that was more saturated with colour. The colour palette I used includes Ballet Slipper, Dragonfruit, Sprout, Midnight Green, Lilac, Lilac Blossom and Eggplant. Gold Glitter cardstock was also added as an accent on both cards.


For this first card featuring the "Stitched Read & Sip" Stitching Die of the Month, I cut the card base and panel from white linen cardstock. Then I cut the books from Ballet SlipperDragonfruitSprout, Eggplant and Gold Glitter cardstock.


After cutting the teacup and flowers from Ballet SlipperDragonfruitSproutMidnight GreenLilacLilac Blossom and Eggplant cardstock, I stitched both the teacup and large book using Light Gold DMC Diamant Grande Metallic Thread.


After using liquid glue and foam tape to assemble the layers of the teacup and books, I glued most of the pieces directly on to the base panel and popped ups few of the flowers with foam tape.


To create the sentiment, I used Gold Hot Foil to heat foil one of sentiments from the "Sketched Lines" Glimmer Hot Foil Kit of the Month on white linen cardstock and popped that on to the smaller book using foam strips.


I made this card for a friend who is starting a new job in a complete different industry than what she has worked in all her life. We regularly meet up for coffee and we're both avid readers so I thought this was the perfect design and sentiment for her new endeavour!


For this second card featuring the "Sketched Lines" Glimmer Hot Foil Kit of the Month, I cut an A2 panel from Lilac Blossom cardstock and used Pastel Lavender Hot Foil in two directions on an angle to create the cool background for my coffee cups.


Next, I cut all the coffee cup layers and flowers from the "Stitched Read & Sip" Stitching Die of the Month using DragonfruitSproutMidnight GreenLilacEggplant and Gold Glitter cardstock. This time, I didn't add stitching to those dies.


After stacking the layers of coffee cups with foam tape, I glued the flowers and leaves on to each cup in a different mix of colours so each cup had each colour represented on it. I also alternated the Sprout and Midnight Green leaves for variation.


For the sentiment from All You Need Sentiments, I used Gold Hot Foil on white linen cardstock and popped it up with foam strips. Lastly, I added a few Gold Pearls to embellish the card and give it a little more gold.


I made this card for a friend who had a freak slip-and-fall accident last month which resulted in a nasty break in her left leg. She often joins me and the recipient of the first card for coffee and lunch so we'll be missing her for a couple of months while she recuperates. I hope this card brings her a smile and encourages her to heal quickly.


Here's a list of monthly club kits I share, as well as some of the value kits offered by Spellbinders:
