Spellbinders to the rescue

Hello there crafters!
I have a quick yet effective card to share with you today. Last week I needed a last-minute card for the birthday of a colleague. I had just one evening to come up with something and therefore I took my Spellbinders out and started playing with them. They're my go-to tool when I need to whip up a card in almost no time - they're so easy to mix and match and the result is always great! I added a stamped greeting (Lily of the Valley stamp), Prima 6x6 designer paper, some matching ribbon and a charm from my stash and bang! The card was ready!

Thanks for stopping by and hope to be back soon with a new creation.
Have a nice weekend!
Hugs, Vittoria

Matchbox chest

Hello there crafters,
I hope you all had a nice and pleasant Easter time with your family and friends.
I didn't have much time for crafting the past few months but I've managed to complete a cute Easter project which has been on my mind for quite a while.
A few months back I bought a lovely matchbox die from Sizzix and decided to use it to put together a chest. I found a good tutorial on YouTube which was made with a similar Sizzix die and I managed to put 2 chests together. I used some gorgeous Prima papers to cover the chests, and on the top I added a metal handle from which I've hung a tassel, a key and a number tag. I had so much fun creating those chests, believe me! In each of the 4 drawers I put a small bag with chocolate Easter eggs for the recipient. the handle of the drawers were made with some drop pearls attached with a tiny brad. For the feet of the chest I used 4 round wooden pieces which I painted black. don't you just love the result?

Thanks a lot for visiting and if you have any question, just ask! :D
