Spellbinders fabulous Club Kits arrived the other day and I seriously couldn’t wait to play.  This Large Die of the Month Kit is just fabulous and could be decorated for any season or occasion, for instance – HALLOWEEN

The main die cuts this very cool door THAT OPENS.  In addition, there are dies that create the pillars, roof and step as the main elements and a bunch of embellishment dies.

 

Spellbinders October Large Die of the Month Halloween

Spellbinders October Large Die Cut of the Month – Halloween Card:

  • Cut all the pieces from white card and use Distress Oxide Inks to add the color.
  • Mask off the door and blend with Black Soot.
  • Next, the pillars, step and roof are done in Wilted Violet and glued around the door.
  • The card base is done in Peeled Paint and a bit of Black Soot.
  • Additionally,  Peeled Paint is used for the wreath and after all the skulls are attached, place a black rhinestone in between each one
  • For some fun embellishments, try The Halloween Sunday Drive dies.  The bats, the skulls for the wreath on the door, and the skeleton climbing out the mail slot in the door, LOL…don’t you hate it when the zombies escape, haha.
  • Silver Mirror card is used for the mail slot, door knob, and strapping on the pillars.

Christmas Card:

  • Holiday cards are the thing right now so I designed this one with a Teal front door.
  • Similarly, cut the pillars, roof and step in white, the card base is gray and the door is teal.
  • Finally, use your scrap bin for the rest of the pieces, Oatmeal Cookie and black for the mat, green and red for the wreath and letter in the slot, and white for the snowflakes.

This could also be a “welcome to your new home” card.

  1. Because of you, I enrolled in the small and large die of the Month. I love this one and cannot wait to get started on playing. Thank you for all your inspiration. I wish I had your coloring skill and learn so much from you. In Covid times, having an outlet like this is a miraculous thing. So much cheaper than therapy. (Well, maybe not…) HAHAHAHAHAHA

    Stay Safe!

  2. OMG!I need that door die! I’ve seen so many really cute cards with the door die, but this is the cutest!

    I happen to have the Halloween Sunday Drive and all the dies that go with Sunday Drive and also Truckin’ Through the seasons which can be used together. I see there is a new Sunday Drive additional Dies coming out soon too.

  3. The spellbinder monthly dies are really always amazing. This month is no exception. Thanks for sharing the great cards.

    1. thank you Roni. I was sitting there looking at the dies and remembered I had skeletons in the other die set, and off I went, being silly, haha

  4. I love this .months products from Spellbinders. I have received my Small and Large dies and could not wait to use them. This door die is so versatile. Love your Halloween card.
    Thank you for sharing your creations!

  6. So enjoyed seeing your cards for this bloghop! The Halloween card was hilarious with that “mailed” skeleton. And I love the colors and seeing you assemble the door card! Lovely!

  7. I thought all your cards were wonderful but I particularly liked the Halloween one. I thought it was tremendous and so imaginative;esp. with the skeleton coming out the mail slot! We had a house with a mail slot when I was a girl and it was great. Where did they all go?!

  8. I am in love with the skeleton wreath and the skeleton coming out of the mail slot! Sooo fun!!! Both cards are just fabulous in every detail.

  9. So many possibilities with this awesome front door set! Love the Halloween version! That skull wreath is FABULOUS! Beautiful Christmas version too!
