Spellbinders Contest and DT Projects

It has been 7 months since I started with Spellbinders and I have so much to share.   I would say that I've noticed an improvement in my designs and projects with the addition of die templates.  Before I made the Spellbinders design team, I had their circles, squares, scalloped circles, etc.  The basic shapes, which I mostly used for cards.  Since the team, I have started to use so many more shapes and labels, and not just for cards, but as you'll see below, for 3D items, layouts, jewelry, and even felt coasters!  Those are particularly easy to make (just get some sheets of cork for the bottom).

DESIGN TEAM CALL:
The Spellbinders design team contest has been announced for next year!  I would encourage anyone who loves their Spellbinders products to apply.  The people behind the business are fantastic, as are the people they hire to work with the design teams.  It's a pleasure to work with Spellbinders.

And here are some projects I've made to date using some of the new Summer Release 2011 die templates.  The supply lists are linked to the Spellbinders products, just in case you want to see the whole set of die templates.
