Spellbinders | Hugs Collection: 2 Easy Die Cut Cards

Spellbinders Stampendous Hugs Collection handmade card with Kitty Hugs (S5-587) and Bear Hugs (S5-586).

How to Make Easy Die Cut Cards

Simple die-cuts can make high impact creations for cards, scrapbooking or any other papercrafts. Today, I created 2 quick and easy cards using Spellbinders + Stampendous new Hugs Collection.

Spellbinders Stampendous Kitty Hugs (S5-587) easy die cut Get Well card.

For Card #1, I made a Get Well card using the new Kitty Hugs (S5-587) etched die kit . I played around with layouts and in the end decided to keep my card very simple. I die cut my kitty from white card stock and then used my Stylish Ovals nesting dies to make a shaped background and card. The background is my alltime favorite Waterfall cardstock. I added a few pops of color with the facial features, bow tie, star and fish, which are all included with the die kit.

To make my shaped card, I took an A2 top folding card base and taped the top of the largest Stylish Oval die just above the fold, so the card base would remain in one piece, and then ran it through my die cutting machine. I hot foiled a quick sentiment and then assembled with adhessive squares.

Sweet Die Cut Card for a Baby Shower

Spellbinders Bear Hugs (STP-586) easy die card for a baby shower.

I am co-hosting a baby shower this month so Card #2 is for Baby Juliette. This die set is called Bear Hugs (STP-586). I love the simple sweetness of the pinks and whites.

The gift box , ribbon and bow are also from the Hugs Collection and the die set is called Hugs Accessories (S5-590). The set also contains several hearts, envelops, letters and a swag…very cute.
