Hello, crafty friends! Today, I'm showcasing the September 2024 Monthly Club Kits from Spellbinders. The first card features the "Stitched Sunflower" Stitching Die of the Month and the second card features the "Friendly Thanks" Glimmer Hot Foil Kit of the Month. Club Kits close on the 27th of each month so get them while you can!
I'll admit, when I saw that this month's Stitching Die of the Month was a sunflower, I wasn't too excited about it. However, when I saw red and mixed red-yellow sunflowers at the market this week, that all changed and I couldn't wait to use a colour palette that would allow me to create red sunflowers! Have you seen them? They're stunning and so unusual! I had no idea that red sunflowers even existed.
The colour palette I used on both of my cards include Watermelon, Rose Water, Salt Water Taffy, Cookie Monster and Chocolate Truffle. After die cutting the pieces from their respective colours, I used embroidery floss from the DMC Color Essentials Floss Warm Bundle and the DMC Color Essentials Floss Warm Bundle. The floss in the centre of the flower is from my stash and I don't know the number of it but it's definitely DMC branded.
I cut the base panel from Salt Water Taffy using the largest of the Perfect Touch Rectangles. I love that the tiny little details match the centre of the sunflower! I popped the top layer of the sunflower and leaves up on 1mm black foam squares before glueing everything down. To finish, I added a few silver pearl embellishments.
The "Friendly Thanks" Glimmer Hot Foil Kit of the Month is big and includes the scripted thanks with a coordinating die, as well as five secondary sentiments. I went with a shaped card design with a Watermelon card base cut with the largest of the Nested Postage Labels and Tags. The plaid panel was created using Salt Water Taffy ink on Salt Water Taffy cardstock, with the Buffalo Plaid Press Plate.
I was also very excited to finally get my hands on the Rainbow Slice Tunnel Dies so I heat foiled the secondary sentiment using Espresso Bean Hot Foil on Rose Water cardstock. The big thanks was heat foiled using Sparkle Silver Hot Foil available in the Christmas Sparkle Variety Pack on Chocolate Truffle cardstock. This time I used 1mm black foam squares under the Rainbow Slices and 2mm black foam squares at the top of the sentiment.
Here's a list of monthly club kits I share, as well as some of the value kits offered by Spellbinders:
