Spellbinders To Paris with Love Tutorial

Hello friends - thank you for visiting!  Today I am sharing a tutorial for Spellbinders using a beautiful die by Licensed Designer Stacey Caron, What is not to love about this fabulous skyline with famous icons of Paris.  It worked perfectly with one of the new Die D-Lites as you can see as you follow along with this tutorial.

The Ooh La La Collection by Stacey Caron has many elements that would be found if you were walking the streets of Paris - fleur de lis, scroll designs, flourish motifs and even the Eiffel Tower! Add them in your project for that French touch - Spellbinders 

1. Cut/emboss one  Paris Skyline using black card stock and one using patterned paper.

2. Lightly sand the patterned Die Cut using a Sanding Block.

3. Adhere the patterned Die cut to the black, slightly offsetting to form a shadow.

4. Cut/emboss patterned paper using Floral Panel outer frame edge.

5. Adhere the layered Paris Skyline to the card front using liquid glue.

6. Cut/emboss Love Letters envelope and latter using double sided paper.

7. Lightly sand the letter and insert into the envelope - add a drop of glue inside the envelope to sop the letter moving.

8. Cut/emboss the medium heart once using green card stock and once using cream.

9. Lightly sand the hearts and tuck them into the envelope - securing with a drop of glue.

10. Adhere to the top right corner of the card front at a slight angle.

11. Cut/emboss one Emmeline Treillage using patterned paper.

12. Pop up the card front onto the Emmeline Treillage using 3D Foam Squares.

13. Pop up the layered card front onto the pre-cut card base, using 3D Foam Squares.

14.Randomly stamp some postmarks using Espresso Truffle ink.

15. Adhere a small piece of torn white corrugated card to the top left corner, lightly sponge using brown ink,

16.Glue the wooden embellishment to the card front - near the top.

17. Wind Twine around the card front twice.
