Cardmaking in 5 Easy Steps – Cards & Coffee Time – January 21, 2026

Hello Crafty Cardmaking Friends! Ready for a fun “just because” card? I’ve got a 5-step project that’s all about getting more bang for your buck by customizing your supplies.

We’re hacking the Spellbinders Birthday Bear Die Set by Simon Hurley—it’s technically for birthdays, but we’re swapping that out for some happy “smiles” instead. I’m also obsessed with the Puffy Hearts 3D Embossing Folder because it has a matching Puffy Hearts Stencil. We’re going to fussy cut those hearts to make a cute banner for our panda to hold—it fits perfectly from paw to paw!

Check out more over at the Spellbinders Shop. Watch the how-to tutorial below! I love how this turned out and hope you do too:)

As always, you can watch how I created this card over on my YouTube Channel or down below. Grab your coffee friends and let’s get to crafting!  Thanks so much for stopping by!  Wishing you a fun and crafty day!  Hugs, Tina
