Spellbinders Do You See What I See Tutorial

Hello friends - thank you for stopping by! Today I have a tutorial to share for Spellbinders - created using the Destination China Collection by Lene Lok - I have created not one but three cards using this fabulous Die, each one using a different technique to show how versatile it is - it was so easily done - as you will see as you follow along with the Tutorial.

Shapeabilities Lucky Clouds Etched Dies Destination China by Lene Lok is a set of two dies that includes a rectangle outline and its insert piece full of playful cloud designs. From detailed frames to intricate accents to beautiful lanterns, Destination China Collection by Lene Lok is a wonderful grouping of Asian inspired elements to bring an exotic flair to your projects. - Spellbinders
