I'll give a very quick run down of each card on here but if you want a more detailed look, I highly recommend checking out the YouTube Video linked above!

Card 1

This card features the embroidery loop chipboard pieces that come with the kit. I used it as my focal point and used the largest circle die (included) to cut one of the card bases. Since they have a textured canvas finish, I thought it would look perfect as the embroidery cloth in the loop. I heat embossed a sentiment from the stamp set on it and assembled in on the center of an A2-zised card using this aqua paper from the paper pad. I added some die cut florals, sewing images and sticker sentiments along with some clear gems.

Card 2

This card was made to be a crafty card for crafty minds! If you're looking to make some cards for your crafty friends, this kit is ideal! I used the Spellbinders Essential Squares dies to cut the center square from the purple cardstock from the kit. I added the sentiment sticker and built up the rest of the card with die cuts of crafty supplies and chipboard button stickers. Finally, I added some gold matte pearls.

Card 3

This card is a mini slimline (6" x 6", scored at 3") and I chose to make this one all about sewing as it pertains to dressmaking. I used to do a lot of sewing in my past making indian sari blouses and I love the bust die included in this kit! I actually have my old bust sitting in my room with necklaces on it. I had to use it and jazz it with some banner sentiments coming from the stand portion of the bust. Then I added a few more related stickers and floral die cuts. I embellished this one with Spellbinders Pink Opalescent Sequins.

Card 4

On this card, I added adhesive to my card base and adhered two pattern papers in a diagonal fashion and cut off the excess. I added a silver glitter strip and picked all of the circle die cuts I could. I attached a few with foam and the rest were stickers. I added a chipboard sentiment along the join of the two papers and embellished this with Peach Opalescent Sequins.

Card 5

I tried to keep this card simple to highlight the beautiful large floral die cuts included in this kit! I used the Fluted Classics Slimline Rectangles and some partial die cutting to cut the white center rectangle. Again I cut this out of the canvas card bases and heat embossed the sentiment. I attached it to the card base covered with the pink polka dot pattern paper with some foam. Then I arranged the florals and leaves around the rectangle and embellished it with clear gems.

Card 6

I used my curved corner punch to curve the edges on this card. This gorgeous yellow floral paper is pretty busy, so I used some vellum to mute the pattern a bit and added the heart wreath sticker. I added a couple sentiment stickers and floral die cuts to match the colour scheme. And with a few clear gems, this simple but pretty card was complete!

Card 7

My final card is the most labour intensive. I used the dies from this kit along with the cardstocks to cut out the embroidery loop. I added it to the pink floral card base and used my Spellbinders Tool N' One with the stylus tip to shape the flowers, adding dimension. I arranged it all on my card and added a few small flowers outside of the loop along with the needle and thread. I stamped the sentiment on white cardstock and propped it up on the bottom of the card. And as always, I added some gems to the flower centers and around the sentiment. 

And that's my inspiration for the Spellbinders Sew Happy September 2022 card kit! I do plan on making some more cards with this kit that I will feature on my Instagram account - so please follow me there @deezinesbyd. You can also find a short reel there for these creations and others!
