Spellbinders Explore Beyond: Sneak Peek and Giveaway Day 4

Hello all and happy 2013! I hope you had a fantastic holiday season. The new year is off to a great start and I am so excited to share a sneak peek of two brand new PageMaps die sets that will be premiering at the CHA Winter Show next week (along with four others)!  Four of my favorite designers have joined me to test drive these dies, and we have the most wonderful layouts and cards to share with you today.

First up is the “Say What?” speech bubbles. I think everyone loved playing with this fun set of dies! Marla used all five die shapes on this layout to capture all of the funny things her kids said during a road trip:

Stephanie had the same idea in mind, but clustered the speech bubbles together to showcase lyrics to a song that her son made up, and included die cuts from two other previous PageMaps sets:

I thought these speech bubbles would be great on a card and had some {quirky} fun with this little gem, perfect for Valentine’s Day:

To round out the Say What? collection, here is one of my favorite layouts Kelly has ever created. I’m not sure if it’s because it’s such a sweet story about her little one, or how she used the dies, but it is so darn cute!

Next up, is our second sneak peek reveal called “Charmed, I’m Sure” and it’s filled with itty, bitty charm tags. One thing I love about this set is that they are the perfect size to top off a layout or add a small sentiment to a card. Here, Lynn Ghahary created a baker’s twine pennant and used all of the charms in the set:

Summer used a combination of both new die sets and created a hilarious page about her son and all the ways he is “cool” (or so he thinks):

Marla mixed up both sets, too, and I love how she double matted the charm tags:

As I mentioned earlier, these charm dies are great for cards! I used two of them to write my sentiment on for this card:

The creative possibilities are endless with both of these new die sets, and they also work well with many other previous PageMaps dies, too.
