Spellbinders | March 2026 Small Die of the Month

 PRODUCT LINKS BELOW CONTAIN COMPENSATED AFFILIATE LINKS AT NO COST 
 
Hello Friends! Spellbinders March 2026 Club Kits are now available! Today I'm featuring the NEW Small Die of the Month. If you aren't already a subscriber you can find all the clubs available HERE.
 
The NEW Small Die of the Month is called, Unstoppable (DOM-MAR26). This set creates a Super Woman along with 4 encouraging Sentiment Strips.
 
I created a fun shaped card featuring the NEW Unstoppable Small Die of the Month (DOM-MAR26) and Solar Flare Embossing Folder of the Month (EOM-MAR26). The shape was created with the Mirrored Arch Labels (S5-613).
 
Card Measurements:
White Mirrored Arch Labels Card Base: 4" x 5 1/8"
Breeze Embossed Arch Labels Panel: 3 3/4" x 4 7/8"
Poppy Sentiment Strip: 3 1/8" x 5/16"
 
To Create Shaped Card:
  • Die Cut 2 White Mirrored Arch Labels measuring: 4" x 5 1/8".
  • Take 1 White Mirrored Arch Label (pretty side up) to score to create hinge. Score across panel 1" from the top. (this measurement can vary on the shape you are creating)
  • Add strong adhesive above the scoreline you just created. I also like to use my trimmer to trim a small bit of the bottom to square off the shape to help it stand upright on display. (trimming can be skipped if your shape has a straight edge)
  • Adhere the other white panel (pretty side up) to the top to create the shaped card base. 
  • Decorate top panel.
