If you’re a paper crafter, the Xyron Wishblade Digital Cutter is a must for any upcoming Holiday projects you have planned. It attaches easily to your computer (PC or MAC), allowing you to cut an endless variety of shapes, letters & patterns.

Tune in now! Savvy crafter Beth Kingston will walk you through the amazing features of this machine … and give you plenty of crafting inspiration. In the meantime, here are some projects — created using the Wishblade — that she’s asked us to share!

Hello everyone!

I am absolutely thrilled to be visiting you on The Shopping Channel tomorrow. I’ll be introducing you to Spellbinders Paper Arts and sharing some of our most popular products: the Wizard Embossing & Die Cutting System and Spellbinders Die Templates, featuring Nestabilities. You will learn how to cut, emboss and stencil using these triple function die templates, giving you professional results in minutes.

The Wizard is an all-metal constructed, universal die cutting machine that exerts 3,000 pounds (over 1,300 kilograms) of pressure to ensure the most precise cutting and the deepest embossing. Do you already have another die cutting machine? Or die cut templates from other crafting companies? Feel free to use our die templates in other machines or other manufacturer’s die cuts in the Wizard—remember, we offer universal products.

In several segments, I’ll be sharing projects and techniques using the Wizard and our templates: Nestabilities Ovals, Squares, Circles and more!

Check out this project by artist Becca Feeken. This gorgeous card highlights the Spellbinders Nestability Scalloped Circles and Squares:

This layout by artist Holly Craft is absolutely stunning. Nestabilities make perfect frames and mats for all your layouts!

Join in the fun on Thursday and learn how easy it is to make beautiful projects in minutes!

See you then…

From the Memories Direct Designer Collection Series, our elegant 9500+ piece scrapbooking kit has the heaviest grade paper we manufacture. Plus, with over 9,500 pieces to work with there are endless possibilities and so many options of things to do with this one kit.

The kit comes complete with 12×12 and 8×8 flat papers in many themes for any event of the year. The colours and designs we used in this kit are timeless and elegant.

Coordinating paper journaling tags, frames, borders, accents, titles, lettering, numbers, punctuations and more are also included. Truly all you need to do is add your photos- even ribbon, brads, eyelets, velum and chipboard accents are included too!

On the “Peek-a-boo” layout below, I outlined some punch-out letters from the kit to give the title a little extra kick. For the cute “flip-over” in the corner, all I needed was to attach a small square of the plaid paper to the back side of the green paper. The square only had to be big enough for what shows when you flip it over. Then I used one of the brads in the kit to attach it.

The “Wedding Forever” layout below uses flower punch outs with jewel punch outs as the center. They look like real bling, but won’t bulk up your scrapbook. The “forever” title and the blue tag are included in the kit. I just backed the blue tag with regular white paper to make it stand out a little more. The envelope is also included in the kit, but I stamped over it with a poem stamp to give some texture. The three “buttons” under the title are simply more punch outs from the kit with the clear epoxy stickers included in the kit giving them a 3-D effect.

Here are a couple more layout examples, both created with the Memories Direct 9500+ Piece Scrapbooking Kit - I hope they help get your creative juices flowing!

I’ll have lots more examples & inspiration for you during my visit to The Shopping Channel this Thursday.

Be sure to watch!
