StrangeLove Skateboards x Nike SB Dunk Low Is A "Fine Pair": Inspired by Strangelove founder Sean Cliver's lifelong love of skateboarding.
It seems the Nike SB‘s latest round of efforts is all about love. Sean Cliver’s love of Christmas shines through on his upcoming Dunk Low, while FRAME Skate’s “Habibi” SB Dunk was used as a symbol of love for the city they made their home — and even Supreme are showing some self-love with a tribute […]
Nike SB looks to continue its love affair with the ACG division with yet another Dunk Low inspired by an All Conditions Gear classic. This time, the skateboard sub-division nods the Caldera Plus ACG hiking boot on a Dunk Low Pro as a follow-up effort to last year’s “Terra ACG” release. Like that pair, we […]

It’s a Honey Kind Of Day - Love SB products! I am dying to try Whipped Honey with Cinnamon -- I can just taste the fluffy goodness on a homemade dinner roll!!!
While Blazers and One Stars might be what's popping in the streets for skaters lately, we still have mad love for the Dunks. This Nike SB Dunk High harks back to a simpler time in skateboarding when eight-year-olds couldn't 900 and when, if Pussy Gangster was out, you'd think it was CGI. Cloaked in an all black suede upper, the shoe is definitely suited to a thrashing, and a thin strip of gum on the outsole ups the swag levels.
Welcome to the weekend friends! I’m excited to be back today to share a couple of projects made with the new Sealed For Summer Collection from Spellbinders. (Check out the entire June release here…so much good stuff!) This collection contains beautiful Glimmer Plates, gorgeous dies, stunning embossing folders, fun new wax seal stamps, and a ton of new wax bead colors too! I used a bunch of the products from the collection to create three pretty floral cards for different occasions. But first, here's a quick look at all of the new wax colors stamped with one of my favorite new wax seal stamps from the Sealed For Summer Wax Seal Set 1. I LOVE the new Pink Damask and Driftwood colors the most I think, but those three beautiful purples match the Spellbinders cardstock really well too! SUMMERTIME FLORAL LOVE CARD Before I get to those wax seals though, let's start with this pretty foiled love card! The new Glimmer Bouquet Plate & Die Set was so gorgeous, I picked this up first to foil onto white cardstock using Gold Hot Foil, then colored with my Copic markers. I also foiled a matching sentiment using the Must Have Glimmer Sentiments Set. To create the background, I trimmed a piece of Waterfall Cardstock to 4 x 5.25, embossed it with the Mandala Blooms 3D Embossing Folder, and adhered it to a top-folding A2-sized white card base. Then I cut white cardstock using one of the Essential Modern Ovals Dies and splatted some diluted Salvaged Patina Distress Ink over it before adding it on top with foam adhesive. To finish off the card, I popped the bouquet and sentiment up on top of the card front with more foam adhesive. WAX SEAL SYMPATHY CARD Next, I wanted to try out one of my new wax seal stamps, so I marbled the Pastel Lilac and Enchanted Wax Beads together, stamped it with the For You wax seal stamp from the Sealed For Summer Wax Seal Set 1, and added silver metallic marker just to the sentiment once hardened. I cut Mirror Silver, Rainforest, and Purple Mist Cardstock using the Sealed Squiggles and Sealed Flowers Die Set to create the little bouquet behind the seal. To assemble, I trimmed a piece of Royal Amethyst Cardstock to 4 x 5.25, embossed it with the Floral & Vine 3D Embsossing Folder, matted it with Mirror Silver Cardstock, and added it to a top-folding A2-sized white card base with tape runner. Then I cut a piece of white cardstock using one of the dies from the Essential Modern Ovals Die Set, blended Peacock Feathers and Salvaged Patina Distress Ink up from the bottom, added it to the card front, and trimmed off any overhanging pieces. Once the wax seal and mini bouquet were adhered, I added a secondary sentiment beneath the wax seal foiled in Lavender Petal Hot Foil using the Hexi Gems Sentiments Glimmer Plate Set. SWEET FLORAL HI CARD Lastly, I wanted to make a simple and sweet floral card with the new Oval Floral Wax Seal Stamp from the Sealed for Summer Wax Seal Set 1. This time I melted just Coral Wax Beads for the seal, and applied gold metallic marker over the entire pressed design. I cut Sage, Peach Sorbet, and Mirror Gold Cardstock with the Sealed Squiggles and Sealed Blooms Die Sets to create the little bouquet behind the seal. Latte Cardstock was embossed with the Mandala Blooms Embossing Folder and I cut two sizes of ovals from Alabaster and Mirror Gold Cardstock using the Essential Modern Ovals Die Set before splattering some gold paint onto the smaller oval. Once the card had been assembled, I added a simple hi foiled with Gold Hot Foil using the Glimmer Alphabet Plate Set and applied inks to color the inside using the coordinating stencil. I love how this card turned out! I hope you enjoyed these pretty summer floral card projects and thanks so much for stopping by today.

Welcome back friends! I’m excited to be back today to share a couple of projects made with the new Classic Christmas Collection from Spellbinders. (Check out the entire July release here…just a ton of beautiful holiday stuff!) This collection is full of sweet holiday icons, beautiful sentiment dies, and a fun new layering stencil set in traditional Christmas motifs. I used some of the products from the collection to create three easy and pretty cards perfect for sending holiday cheer. WARM WISHES TURTLEDOVE CARD I'm a sucker for anything bird-related, and the new Christmas Bird Poinsettia Die Set was no exception! I cut my feathered friend out of different shades of grey cardstock to look like a turtledove and added a big pretty poinsettia, holly leaves, pine sprigs, and even a candy cane to fill out my bouquet. To create the background, I trimmed a piece of Glacier Cardstock to 4 x 5.25, embossed it with the Vintage Ornaments 3D Embossing Folder, and added it to a top-folding A2-sized white card base. After arranging my flowers and bird in one corner of the card front, I added a sentiment from the Christmas Die & Glimmer Sentiments Set foiled in Gold Hot Foil and cut from Phone Booth Cardstock. CHRISTMAS FLORALS CARD Spellbinders has really been creating some beautiful layering stencils lately and the Christmas Florals Die & Stencil Bundle might be my new favorite! I used several different shades of Distress Inks with the five stencil layers in the set followed by a dab of Champagne Stardust Butter for the poinsettia centers. It created a beautiful bouquet that nearly fills an entire card front, and I sliced it right in half for a slightly different look. After embossing a piece of Crimson Cardstock with the In The Pines Embossing Folder, I popped the two halves up on the top and bottom of the card front with foam adhesive. Then I cut a sentiment out of Mirror Gold Cardstock using the Christmas Florals Die & Stencil Bundle and added it in the center. I love how easy it was to create that gorgeous and colorful image! BOTTLE BRUSH CHRISTMAS TREE FOREST CARD Lastly, I love that there are now two more larger sizes of bottle brush trees to add to my collection thanks to the new Bottle Brush Trees Duo Die Set. I cut Dahlia, Rainforest, Waterfall, Pink Sand, and Purple Mist Cardstock with both the Bottle Brush Trees Duo Die Set and the Bottle Brush Trees Die Set (smaller trees released last year) and layered coordinating colors of Glitter Foam on top to create this bright and cheery forest. To assemble the card, I trimmed a piece of white cardstock to 4.125 x 5.375, embossed it with the Flurry of Snowflakes 3D Embossing Folder, and adhered it to a top-folding A2-sized white card base. After adding my bottle brush tree forest to the front of the card with foam adhesive, I cut a sentiment out of Mirror Silver Cardstock using the Christmas Florals Die & Stencil Bundle and popped it up in the corner with more foam adhesive. I hope you enjoyed these pretty holiday card projects and thanks so much for stopping by today.

Happy Friday friends! I’m excited to be back today to share a couple of projects made with the new Metamorphosis Collection by Simon Hurley from Spellbinders. (Check out the entire February release here!) This collection contains beautiful butterflies, sentiments, and scene-building elements perfect for springtime and everyday cards! I created two colorful butterfly cards with the collection perfect for sending a happy hello. BUTTERFLY CONGRATS CARD The Stained Glass Window Die Set creates a beautiful background element that nearly fills an entire A2-sized card front. I decided to use it almost like a trellis and cut it out of both white and Mirror Gold Cardstock (offset a bit for a golden shadow layer) before adhering it on top of a card base onto which I had blended Mowed Lawn, Peacock Feathers, and Prize Ribbon Distress Oxide Ink. That bold flower was cut from several shades of yellow, green, and gold cardstock using the In Bloom Die Set (shading was added around the edges with Distress Inks). After cutting a piece of white cardstock using one of the butterfly shadow layers from the Brilliant Butterflies Die Set, I blended Candied Apple, Ripe Persimmon, and Carved Pumpkin Distress Oxide Ink over it and added the detail layer on top cut from Onyx and Mirror Gold Cardstock. To finish the card off, I foiled a sentiment in Gold Hot Foil using the Sentiments For Everyday Glimmer Plate Set. BUTTERFLY WINDOW HELLO CARD For a softer look, I started this card by cutting the detail layer of one of the butterflies from the Brilliant Butterflies Die Set out of cardstock that I had blended Wilted Violet, Picked Raspberry, and Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide Ink onto and adhered it to a shadow layer cut from vellum. This time I cut the sideview flower from the In Bloom Die Set out of Purple Mist, Lilac Blossom, and Royal Amethyst Cardstock and foiled a sentiment from the Be Bold Glimmer Sentiments Set using Bright Pink Hot Foil. To create the background, I die cut the center of a piece of white cardstock using one of the dies from the Essential Floral Reflection Die Set and embossed it with the Flower Frenzy 3D Embossing Folder. After inking an A2-sized white card base with Salty Ocean and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Inks, I added a few splatters and adhered the embossed window panel on top with foam adhesive before popping the rest of the elements up around the window with more foam adhesive. I hope you enjoyed these pretty butterfly card projects and thanks so much for stopping by today. You can shop the Metamorphosis Collection now and create your own beautiful spring cards!

Hello again friends! I'm excited to share a few projects today made with the brand new Fresh Picked Collection from Spellbinders (you can check out the rest of the January release here...there is a ton of fun stuff in this release!) This collection is full of fun and kinda funky florals that you can use to fill an entire cardfront or just as a focal point as well as some cute sentiments and a great basic embossing folder. I created three cards using most of the products in the collection, and can't wait to make more! BUTTERCUP SYMPATHY CARD I loved the dainty flowers in the Fresh Picked Buttercups Die Set, so I picked this one up first to work with. I knew I was making a sympathy card, so I chose some muted, but pretty shades of cardstocks to cut all of my flower branches out of - Velvet Rose, Peach Sorbet, and Sage Cardstock. After cutting, I added some shading with coordinating Distress Inks and assembled everything with liquid glue. For the background, I embossed a piece of Barely Peach Cardstock with the new Flowers & Foliage 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to a top-folding A2-sized white card base. Then I arranged all of the branches and popped them up on top of the card front with foam adhesive. To finish off the card, I foiled a sentiment from the You Are Everything Sentiments BetterPress Plate Set in gold and added some Gold Mix Gems. ANEMONE THANK YOU CARD Although all of the main die sets in the collection can be used to create full card fronts, you can also take just a stem or two and use it as a focal point on your card. Here I cut two of the floral stems from the Fresh Picked Anemone Die Set out of Rainforest, Purple Mist, Lilac Blossom, Royal Amethyst, and Plum Cardstocks and assembled them with liquid glue. I placed them in the center of the card front for a bold and pretty focal point. To create the background, I blended Peacock Feathers and Salvaged Patina Distress Ink over two-thirds of a piece of white cardstock and then embossed it with the Geo Screen Embossing Folder. After adhering the anemones to the card with foam adhesive, I popped a sentiment cut out of Mirror Silver Cardstock using the Fresh Picked Sentiments Die Set right on top with more foam adhesive. To finish off the card, I added a few Crystal Mix Gems. DAFFODIL HELLO CARD Lastly, I love daffodils and really love the funky look of the flowers in the Fresh Picked Daffodils Die Set! I cut mine out of Fern, white, Sunkissed, and Persimmon Cardstocks, assembling them with liquid glue. A bold sentiment from the Fresh Picked Sentiments Die Set was cut out of Mirror Gold Cardstock as well. To assemble the card, I embossed a piece of Cosmic Sky Cardstock with the new Columns Embossing Folder before adhering it to a top-folding A2-sized white card base with tape runner. Then I popped the flowers up on top of the card front and added the bold sentiment in the lower corner. To complete the card, I foiled a secondary greeting in gold using the Mini Sincere Sentiments Glimmer Plate Set, cut it into a small strip, and added it beneath my hi. If you're interested in even more florals, then you'll want to check out the new From The Garden Collection by Wendy Vecchi! Here are peeks at three cards I made using the new Garden Party Stamp Stencil & Die Set, Vintage Florals Die Set, Heartfelt Thanks & Scallops Die Set, and Flowers & Foliage 3D Embossing Folder. You can find additional details for these cards over on the Spellbinders blog! I hope you enjoyed these bold floral card projects and thanks so much for stopping by today.

Happy Monday friends! I’m excited to share a few projects today made with the new Monster Birthday Collection from Spellbinders (you can check out the rest of the January release here…so much fun stuff in this release!) This collection is full of adorable creatures ready to celebrate birthdays or other fun occasions with you. I created four bright and fun cards for various occasions using nearly the entire collection and I hope you love them as much as I loved creating them! DRAGON TACO PARTY CARD There's only one thing dragons love more than parties and tacos, and that's taco parties. When I saw the adorable creature in the Dancin' Birthday Dragon Die Set, I knew I had to make a card for my son based on one of his favorite books - Dragons Love Tacos. I cut the little guy out of red and orange cardstock to look like the dragon on the cover of the book and added him on top of an arch cut with the Make A Wish Arch Labels Die Set and stamped with a cute sentiment from the Monster Birthday Sentiments Stamp Set. For the background, I started by blending Salty Ocean Distress Ink around the edges of a panel of Glacier Cardstock and then embossed it with the Columns Embossing Folder. Then I cut and assembled 10 tacos using one of my favorite old Large Die of the Month Sets - Food Truck (on super sale right now!). I adhered the tacos directly to the background with liquid glue and trimmed off any excess with a pair of scissors before adding my arch on top with foam adhesive. Check out how my dragon dances too! DANCING PANDA BIRTHDAY CARD Next I wanted to play with the sweet little critter from the Dancin' Panda Birthday Die Set. I cut her from white and black cardstock, shading the white bits with a little Lost Shadow Distress Ink to add a little interest before adding pink glasses cut using the Smart Glasses Die Set. Since my little girl is turning six this year, I cut a fun number balloon for her to hold out of Fruit Punch Cardstock using the Birthday Balloons Die Set. I found some pretty pastel plaid patterned paper in my stash for the background and matted it with Teal Topaz Cardstock before adding it to a top-folding A2-sized white card base. Then I cut white cardstock using one of the dies from the Heartfelt Thanks & Scallops Die Set and stamped a simple greeting on the bottom using the Monster Birthday Sentiments Stamp Set. The panda and balloon were popped up on top with foam adhesive and check out her little swaying legs! DINOSAUR SHAPED CARD How about a cute shaped card to wish someone a great day? I cut the adorable dinosaur from the Birthday Dinosaur Die Set out of Pink Sand and Fruit Punch Cardstock to make a sweet shaped card for my daughter. To make her even sweeter, I added the wreath of flowers from the set on top of her head too. She stands upon a hill cut from Rainforest Cardstock using the Color Block Scenic Scape Die Set and embossed in white with yet another cute greeting from the Monster Birthday Sentiments Stamp Set. I created a card base out of white cardstock using the largest die from the Make A Wish Arch Labels Die Set and added a layer of Glacier Cardstock (Salty Ocean Distress Ink blended around the edges) as the background cut with the next largest die from the set. Once my hill and dinosaur were placed on the front of the card with foam adhesive, I cut a couple of clouds using the On Cloud Nine Die Set and popped them up in the background to finish off this perfect little scene. MONSTER APOLOGY CARD I love that the collection contains sentiments for so many occasions other than birthdays too! This cute little monster from the Dancin' Birthday Monster Die Set looks great in colors reminiscent of Sully from Monsters, Inc.! I used the same layout for him as my first card with the dragon, choosing to mount him on top of an arch cut with the Make A Wish Arch Labels Die Set and stamped with a greeting from the Monster Birthday Sentiments Stamp Set. This time I created a simple background by applying Opaque White Hot Foil to Teal Topaz Cardstock using the Geometric Optical Background Glimmer Plate and my Glimmer Hot Foil System. Once mounted on a top-folding A2-sized white card base with foam adhesive, I added the monster and arch on top with more foam adhesive. How cute are his little dancing legs?! I hope you enjoyed these cute critter card projects and thanks so much for stopping by today. You can shop the Monster Birthday Collection now and create your own adorable cards for any occasion!

CATS! You know I love this challenge! I added glossy accents to my halloween cat and gave her green eyes and a pink nose. The sentiment is washi tape. Dies: SB/Witches Brew, Pumpkins. Fun and done!
Welcome to the weekend friends! Today I’m thrilled to share one more new collection that’s part of the July release from Spellbinders…the Celebrate The Season Collection. With gorgeous traditional holiday designs, beautiful backgrounds, and a variety of sentiments, this collection has something for everyone when it comes to holiday cardmaking. I created three fun Christmas cards with some of the products in the collection perfect for sending a little holiday cheer. Note: This collection has been very popular and certain products have been in and out of stock in many shops. Be sure to check the more extensive list of links at the end of this post and click the notify me button in the shop if you’re having trouble locating a specific set! MERRY LITTLE RED SLEIGH CARD The Winter Welcome Sled Die Set is such a gorgeous set with so many beautiful details. From the embossed woodgrain on the sled to the tiny laces on the ice skates, any card made with this die set looks instantly elegant. I cut my sled from Phone Booth and Mirror Silver Cardstock and added two-tone grey skates and a white poinsettia with greenery to embellish. The background was created by trimming a piece of Raindrop Cardstock to 4 x 5.25 and embossing it with the Sweater Weather Embossing Folder before adhering it to a top-folding A2-sized white card base with foam adhesive. After popping the sled up on top of the card front with foam adhesive, I added a sentiment from the Glitter Wishes Glimmer Plate Set that I had foiled using Silver Hot Foil. Crystal Mix Gems were added to finish off this pretty card. HOLIDAY CHEER CARDINAL WREATH I love all of the layered birds that Spellbinders has been releasing lately, and the Tweet Cardinal is no exception! Fearing he might get lonely, I created a female cardinal for him to hang out with using the recently-released Little Chickadee Die Set. The wreath was formed using the pine branches from the Holiday Blooms Die Set...I overlapped three layers of branches cut from Fern and Rainforest Cardstock for a full, but simple wreath. Then I added some of the flowers and berries from the set for a little extra color and finished off the flower centers with a few Gold Mix Gems. To create the background, I trimmed a piece of Cosmic Sky Cardstock to 5.25 square and embossed it with the Knock On Wood 3D Embossing Folder before matting it with Mirror Gold Cardstock and adhering it to a top-folding 5.5 square white card base. After adhering my wreath and cardinals to the front of the card, I added a sentiment cut from Mirror Gold Cardstock using the Mix & Match Holiday Greetings Die Set. SLEIGH BELLS & REINDEER CARD Lastly, I thought the little sleigh bells from the More Holiday Decorations Die Set were so cute that I wanted to create a little silly and fun card with them. I added straps of them all over a piece of Dune Cardstock that had been embossed with the Dazzling Dots Embossing Folder and matted with Fern Cardstock. That cute reindeer was created by adding Gold Hot Foil to white cardstock with the Deer Friend Glimmer Plate Set and coloring it in with Copic markers. I gave him his own sleigh bell and a few holly leaves before adhering him to the front of the card with foam adhesive. To finish off this simple card, I added another sentiment from the Glitter Wishes Glimmer Plate Set, foiled in Red Hot Foil. I hope you enjoyed these fun holiday cards and thanks so much for stopping by today.

Happy Monday friends! I'm excited to be back today to share a couple of projects made with the Holiday Cheer Enclosed Collection from Spellbinders. This adorable collection is full of cute pet images and sweet sentiments and is perfect for all of the animal-lovers on your Christmas card list! I created a fun card and gift tag with the collection and love how you can customize these little critters for the recipient. BOX OF CHRISTMAS CHEER CARD As an animal-lover myself, I can't think of a better gift than one of these adorable furry friends. I cut Persimmon, Poppy Field, Fern, and white cardstock using the Special Pet Delivery Die Set, added a few details with Copic markers to make this kitty look like my own, and assembled him with liquid glue. Then I cut Dune Cardstock using the Surprise Box Die Set, stamped some of the adorable labels onto it in Acorn Ink using the Santa Paws Sentiment Stamp Set, and assembled it with my little kitty popping out. To create the background, I trimmed a piece of Phone Booth Cardstock to 4 x 5.25 and applied Gold Hot Foil to it using the Plaid Tidings Background Glimmer Plate before adhering it to a top-folding A2-sized white card base with foam adhesive. Then I embossed a greeting in gold onto white cardstock using the Santa Paws Sentiments Stamp Set and cut it out with the Sentiment Labels Die Set before adding it to the front of the card with gold twine and foam adhesive. CUTE PUPPY CHRISTMAS GIFT TAG And I couldn't leave out the dog-lovers in my life...how cute is this little guy?! I cut the puppy out of white, Lunar Grey, Graphite, Poppy Field, Fern, and Dune Cardstock using the Special Pet Delivery Die Set and assembled him with liquid glue. The frame and sentiment banner were cut out of Phone Booth, Alabaster, and Mirror Gold Cardstock using the same die set. I cut two tags out of Fern Cardstock using the Create A Decorative Tag Die Set and embossed one of them with the Holly Flourish Embossing Folder. Then I adhered the tags together so that I would have a sturdy, flat surface on the back to write a message to my recipient and added the framed puppy on top with foam adhesive. I love easy and fun this little tag was! I hope you enjoyed these cute holiday projects and thanks so much for stopping by today. You can shop the Holiday Cheer Enclosed Collection now and create your own adorable pet-inspired projects! And don’t forget to check out the brand new Sealed by Spellbinders Wax Seal Collection released today...I'll be back soon with lots of fun inspiration, but you may want to grab your favorites now because this is sure to be a popular collection!

Hi friends! I'm so excited to share another new collection from Spellbinders with you today...the Stitched Alphabet Collection. With every lowercase letter of the alphabet plus a beautiful ampersand, this collection can be used to spell out any name or greeting that your stitching heart desires! The stitching is minimal on these letters, so they're perfect for beginners...or leave them as-is for a beautiful look as well (see below for an example). I cut the letters to spell L-O-V-E out of white cardstock and stitched them in shades of pink, yellow, blue, and green. Then I popped them all up on top of their coordinating shadow layers cut out of Mirror Gold Cardstock. The rest of the sentiment was foiled in gold using the Love Enclosed Glimmer Plate Set (a previous Glimmer of the Month Kit). To assemble the card, trim a piece of pretty patterned paper to 4 x 5.25 and adhere it to a top-folding A2-sized white card base with tape runner. Stagger the stitched letters across the card front and adhere down with liquid glue, then pop the foiled sentiment up underneath with a little foam adhesive. Embellish with a few pretty daisies cut from white, Mirror Gold, and Fern Cardstock using the Mini Blooms & Sprigs Die Set. Here are three more fun projects I made with these fabulous dies...you can find the complete instructions for these over on the Spellbinders blog. I love the different looks you can achieve with these dies! I hope you enjoyed these easy and fun projects and thanks so much for stopping by today. You can shop the Stitched Alphabet Collection from Spellbinders now and stitch your own words for any occasion.
