I am just loving some of the new Spellbinders Shapeability dies that were released this winter.  The die set “Shoot”, a set of five arrow dies, actually inspired this layout.  Because arrows made me think about directions, I googled ‘direction quotes’ and found a perfect quote for a scrapbook page.  There were a lot of great quotes to choose from but I’m thinking that arrows are the perfect touch for many projects.  A very versatile die set.  Spellbinders also manufactures my favourite alphabet die sets – the font one upper and lower case sets are the perfect size and style for many projects.  Just love them.  When you make your own letter stickers, you never run out of ‘a’s.

Adhering small or delicate die cuts can be tricky, but a Xyron Create-a-Sticker makes the process incredibly easy.  I turned all of my Spellbinder die cuts into stickers so that they could be easily attached to the layout without worrying about glue seeping out from under the edges.

Then, I just laid my Spellbinders stickers on top of a gorgeous piece of FabScraps paper from the Time Travel line.  Simple and done!

Supplies:  FabScraps patterned paper and chipboard, Bazzill Basics Paper cardstock, Spellbinders dies, Xyron adhesive, Brother sewing machine, Clearsnap ink.
