Spellbinder's Pendants Blog Frenzy

PLEASE NOTE: The entries for my contest will be extended to 8:30 a.m. EST June 26 due to the difficulties I was having with the contest entry links. Thanks for your patience and sorry for any multiple emails.

Answers to questions: All of the embossed areas you see on the die cut outs were made by the die templates, using the embossing method for the dies. I didn't use any other tools. And the size of the the Tulip Pendant die template is about 4-1/4" in diameter and the Tulips Borderabilities die template cuts a strip long enough to fit on a 5-1/2" wide card. Hope that helps!

Are you ready for some fun? Spellbinders is introducing their new Shapeabilities Pendants and Borderabilities die templates during their Blog Frenzy from June 22 through June 29th. Products will be available for ordering June 30, 2009. Your comments on my post are always welcome but please note that this does not enter you into the contest. This contest is sponsored directly by Spellbinders Paper Arts. Please read the post to find directions for entering. If you have any questions, please e-mail PenContestQuestions@Spellbinders.us.

Today I'll be showing you the following Spellbinder's die templates:

S4-209 Tulips Pendants MSRP $24.99
S4-211 Tulips Borderabilities MSRP $19.99

And it wouldn't be complete without some fun projects to show you. For my first project, I started out by cutting and embossing the Spellbinder's Tulip Pendant die template using white cardstock. I then used yellow cardstock to cut and emboss small and large tulips that will fit perfectly onto stamped tulip stems.
So that all of my pieces fit onto my card, I cut off a portion of my Tulip Pendant Die Cut.
I then adhered patterned paper, my Tulip Pendant die cut, and polka dot ribbon to my card front. I also added a sentiment using green ink.
To embellish the center of my Spellbinder's Tulip Pendant die cut, I stamped an image onto white cardstock. I then cut and embossed my image using Spellbinder's Large Circle and Scalloped Circle die templates.
I then assembled all of my pieces to finish off my beautiful card and added two yellow sequins.
For my second project, I created a card using the same supplies as above, plus the addition of the Spellbinder's Tulip Borderabilities die template.
I adhered this beautifully embossed tulip border across the bottom of my card, added ribbon and some more tiny tulips to some stamped tulip stems to create another beautiful card.

The texture, dimension and details that the Spellbinder's Pendant and Borderabilities die templates add is simply amazing. Be sure to zoom to see the details better.
