Today’s post is all about mixing and matching supplies – featuring the Spellbinders Club Kits for June 2025.
I’m loving that cute die-cut walrus and the seagull dies included in the small die of the month: Shipmates.

Wishing You Oceans of Joy
Why not create a festive Christmas card using the adorable images from the Spellbinders Small Die of the Month?
Just add Christmas Party Glasses from the Cats and Pugs Accessories, and you will be all set!
To ground your image, try adding a banner at the bottom of the panel, like I did, or use a simple shape topper to help separate it from the background.

Fake it till you make it
“Fake it till you make it” is a reminder to show up with confidence, even when you’re still figuring things out. It’s advice I often share with younger generations (and just as often with my peers)… though at this point, I can’t even fake it anymore, lol!
This idea made me giggle, so I brought it to life with a walrus lounging in a tub alongside a rubber duck and a cheeky seagull, all under a sunny sky and yellow umbrella, pretending to be at sea, enjoying the waves.
The rubber duck, often a symbol of childhood and playfulness, adds a fun layer of make-believe to the scene, reminding us that it’s okay to lean into imagination, no matter our age.
It’s also a little invitation to dive into your stash and mix different supplies to build a story, share a message, or craft a one-of-a-kind composition.
Oh yeah! This card is BIG – A5. So I folded an A4 sheet of cardstock in half to create the card base because I needed plenty of space to fit all the elements.
Another key element of the card is the sentiment. I used BiBi,C’s Alphabet Stamps —and I’ll admit, I usually struggle to line up individual letter stamps (or maybe I’m just too impatient to even try!).
So instead, I stamped each letter using Versafine ink over black brushed cardstock, leaving enough space between them, then applied gold embossing powder and heat set it.
After that, I punched out each letter individually.
It wasn’t too difficult, and I actually enjoyed the challenge of finding a fun way to fit the sentiment into the scene. I think it worked out!
