The first one is Shapeabilities Blessings Vine Frame Etched Die.
I love how easy it is to use the die for the entire card front.
Since I used kraft card stock for the die, I thought it would be a good idea to do some ink-blending for the background.
You can see the etched details on the leaves and it does make the card shine!
My 2nd project was created with this Shapeabilities Just For You
Again, this small box die does it all for you. I have no trouble folding the cute box as the die is a keeper. I also love that you can use it all year long.
Usually when I get an intricate box /pillow case die, I often question my ability in turning it into a box. Not this one. I also use the small die from Shapeabilities Mosaic VineEtched Die.

In this card, I used the small lace die from Shapeabilities Thinking of You Scalloped Rectangles Etched Die.
It may look intricate, but it is so easy to take it apart and layer however you like.
I am also glad that I got my new Grand Calibur as the die cut machine does great job. No more fussing about bits not being cut. The small flowers are from Shapeabilities Just For You.
I hope my post gives you some inspiration and ideas about these Spellbinders Dies.

Wow! What beautiful Valentine's cards. The intricacy of these dies really lends itself to enhancing patterned papers. Love that little box a lot.
Gorgeous projects. I love the extra touch the shading provides.
These are beautiful cards! I love Spellbinders dies for their intricacy and the beautiful designs one can create with them. :) A friend gave me a beautiful Spellbinder's butterfly die for Christmas and I can't wait to use it!

The blessings vine/ivy die is sublime! I see a lot of ways to use it besides the original intent. Beautiful card too.

I have to say when I first got my Cuttlebug (10+) years ago, I went crazy buying Spellbinders dies. I had a nice collection of basic dies in no time and I love them to this day. Great products for sure.
You created very beautiful cards. Love them.

How big is the box when finally put together, Virginia? It looks as though it might be big enough for pencils or small chocolates. Great looking projects.
love the box die cut; totally keeper!
I especially like the Just For You Die as I can see that die used throughout the year...on bags, etc.
