Have you seen that Spellbinders now have a UK Website, no more import fees and there is free P&P on orders over £50, well I just had to take advantage of this and I have signed up for their monthly club kits - I have signed up for the VIP value club that includes all of the monthly kits at a fabulous price.
I have created this card with the July Cardmaking Kit called Under the Sea Magic, the thing that I really like about kits is that they often contain things that would not necessarily be your first choice and it challenges you to try something different - that is certainly the case with this kit.
I have used two of the beautiful 6" x 6" papers, one for the background and the lovely one with the mermaid on as a topper. I added a sentiment from the kit and fussy cut some seashells from the mermaid paper. Everything has been backed with gold Mirri and I added three gems that were part of the kit.
Thank you for visiting my blog today and thank you for all of the lovely comments that you leave, they are all read and much appreciated.

A beautiful card Pauline and well done for using something from the kit straight away. I have nearly 40 of the Tonic club monthly die collections and I don't think I've used one of them.

Wow, this is beautiful. Those colors are gorgeous and it sounds like a good kit. I can't wait to see what you make each month.
ReplyDeleteA gorgeous card Pauline and what fabulous news too. I used to buy Spellbinders from Christine Emmerson at Hope and Chances and have struggled to source Spellbinders. Although I have been trying to use what I already have!! x
