Spellbinders | August 2024 Stitching Die of the Month - Stitched Colorful Palette


Hello, crafty friends! Today, I'm showcasing the last of the August 2024 Monthly Club Kits from Spellbinders. This card features the "Stitched Colourful Palette" Stitching Die of the Month with a sentiment from the "Colorful Splash" Glimmer Hot Foil Kit of the Month. Club Kits close on the 27th of each month so get them while you can!


The Stitched Colourful Palette is actually a 3.25" x 6.25" mini slimline size but I decided to use part of it on an A2 card. I really wanted to use white foil or mirror cardstock but didn't have any on hand so I stuck with regular white cardstock.


After I created the palette itself, I die cut the paint brushes from Onyx and Mirror Silver cardstock. After choosing my colour palette based on inspiration from page 97 of Lauren Wager's Palette Perfect, I die cut the paint blocks and brush tips from Velvet Rose, LemongrassGlacier, and EvergreenSpellbinders' Velvet Rose is now retired but exact alternates are Pencil Eraser or Raspberry Sorbet.


Spellbinders' DMC Color Essentials Cool Floss Bundle includes DMC162 which is an exact colour match for Glacier cardstock but I had to make a special trip to my local art store for the other three and found DMC223 for Pencil Eraser, DMC472 for Lemongrass and DMC501 for Evergreen. This last one wasn't an exact match but it's close enough and, as a bonus, I think it will work with several other dark green cardstocks that I have in my stash.


To finish the card, I use the largest of the Precision Layering A2 A Dies to cut a piece of Lilly White Gingham-Linen Petite Prints for the base panel. This colour is included in the Doodlebug Gingham-Linen Petite Prints 12 x 12" Cardstock Paper, available from Spellbinders. After glueing the palette and paint brushes to the panel and trimming off the overhanging excess, I added a sentiment from which I heat foiled with Pewter Hot Foil on Glacier cardstock and trimmed it using the small fishtail banner from Mini Everyday Sentiments.
