We have been waiting a long time for a plate that will allow us to use Provocraft Cuttlebug Embossing Folders, QuicKutz Embossing Folders and Sizzix Textured Impressions and Texture Fades Embossing Folders with Spellibinders Grand Calibur Machine!

Even though Spellbinders has not yet produced a plate that is the size of the other plates for that machine, there is a sandwich for 4″x6″ embossing folders using item W-025 Sizzix Original Cut Mat ( otherwise known as the Rasberry Spacer Plate).

Start with the A Base Plate on the bottom.  Place the folder with cardstock on top of the A Base Plate and cover with the Tan Embossing Mat then the W-025 Raspberry Spacer Plate.  Insert into the front of the Grand Calibur.  Turn the handle and the sandwich exits at the back of the machine.

There you have it! I know that this will make a lot of you happy!

We DO have replacement Grand Calibur Base and Cutting Plates in stock for $22.49 per set!

Now you can complete your projects using just one machine! There is no need to switch!

Thanks and Happy Scrappin’!

Paper, paper and more paper! It is the foundation of Paper Crafting, right? Right! We have to have paper before we can do anything else in our chosen hobby! Die Cuts With A View is constantly producing enticing Paper stacks, Mat Stacks and Cardstock Stacks to suite our individual and unique needs! They are in the business to bring us the essentials of our trade!

I love DCWV paper for several reasons. Their use of color is very appealing to the eye, they have a variety of weight and texture, as well as themes!

I want to point out a few examples! As summer time is approaching Endless Summers 12 x 12 Paper Stack offers  vivid color pages (some glittered) perfect for vacation photos to the tropics, lazy days at the beach, travel, or play in the back yard pool!

Of course, there are countless opportunities for backyard bar-b-ques and pool parties with lots of food! Thus, we have The Snack Stack 12 x 12 paper stack! Yummy pages of brownies, gummy bears, cookies and popcorn, as well as healthier snacks like Kiwi, rasberries, and glittered cherries fill this stack for you to create memories of those special parties with family and friends!

If you are the outdoorsy type, then the gloss and glitter of the Premium Photo Stack will catch your eye! 12 x 12 pages filled with palm leaves, daisies, snow covered trees, water, clouds, you name it! There are even pages of diamond plate for you to mount your photos of that prize 4×4!

If wedding bells are ringing in your ears then the Luxury 2 paper stack has to be part of your scrapbook trousseau! Very Elegant, the rich pearl and metallic colors along with flourish and damask patterns make this a must have for those formal occasions coming up!

These are just a few suggestions to get you going for summer! With all the invitations for social events coming, the crafter inside still needs to take a few moments of quiet time to relax and create!

Thanks and Happy Scrappin’!

We are so excited to have received the new Sizzix Textured Embossing Folders! We Oooed and Ahhhed over them while deciding which were our favorites! Now, I can tell you, that was hard! They are all gorgeous!

I love the embossing folders for making quick cards! You are probably starting to realize that I am all about quick! Sometimes I feel like the rabbit in Alice in Wonderland, always in a hurry because I might be late! Needless to say that quick works best for me! You will most likely see quick ideas from me on our BLOG because that is what I do best! (Or at least have time for)

For this card I used the damask folder from the Corners & Damask Set. I ran white card stock through my Cuttlebug Machine then ran a Tim Holtz Antique Linen Distress Ink all over the top, which helped bring out the design. The pattern strip is from Basic Grey’s Hello Luscious 6×6 Paper Pad with a strip of ribbon. I used 1″ Scor-Tape to adhere the strip and 1/2″ Scor-Tape to apply the ribbon. The tag is made from Spellbinder’s new CHA release Grommet Tags.

Using the corners folder of the Corners & Damask and both the DCWV Luxury Mat Stack and Linen Closet Solid Mat Stack, I made a quick wedding card! I finished it off with Spellbinder’s CHA Fancy Tags Two and Basic Grey’s Opaline Half Pearls!

For this next card I used a card from DCWV Latte Box of Cards and embossed the front with one of the Country & Flowering Foliage Set, the ran the card stock strip through with the other folder in the same set. I used another new CHA release, Labels Eighteen #3 die for the stamped greeting.

Last of all, I simply used two of the four folders in the Butterfly Migration Set for a simple, yet pretty “Thinking of You” card! I used a dauber to dab ink around the edges of the greeting and on the butterflies to create contrast to the rest of the card. 5 minutes tops!

I hope these give you an idea of how pretty these new Sizzix Embossing Folders are!

Thanks and Happy Scrappin’!
