- FSJ thin metal dies are made of steel to provide clean cuts with each and every use without warping or dulling. The dies have a green coating that makes them easy to find as well.
- Over 50% of FSJ stamps have coordinating dies - no more fussy cutting!
- FSJ also offers 50 exclusive colors - matching cardstock, ink, ribbon, and accessories that makes crafting as easy as 1-2-3 !
Where can you find these products? FSJ products can now be found at Spellbinders. Are you ready to see some card samples using both FSJ and Spellbinders products? Great!
My first card features the FSJ beautiful background stamp, Color Me Fall. I already know I'll be reaching for this background time and again. And if watercolor is your jam, you'll love how well FSJ deeply etched red rubber stamps marry with water based inks and markers. I paired the background stamp with Spellbinders October Small Die of the Month, and my second FSJ stamp set, Thankful Friends. Antique gold embossing here and there along the edge of the panel, and little bits sprinkled on the image project an old stationary look similar to those found in children's classic poetry books.

We all love watercolor, and there are so many ways to incorporate it on your card. This clean and simple (CAS) design pairs a watercolor wash and embossed sentiment from FSJ stamp set, Thankful Friends, as the background. An acorn and maple leaf from the same stamp set anchor and balance the design. All are placed on card stock die cut with Spellbinders A2 Curved Matting Basics A. Did I mention the FSJ Thankful Friends includes 12 stamps in the set?! Nice!

FSJ Color Me Fall background stamp steals the show again on this card with Faber-Castell Polychromos Pencils as the medium of choice. Warm, vibrant, color! I didn't want to cover an inch of it and decided to use the Spellbinders May 2018 Small Die of the Month, Border Sentiments to finish the design. Perfect choice!

Oh, my, these cards are absolutely beautiful, Susie! I went to look at everything. It's amazing what you've done with these stamps! I've thought about joining the Small Die of the Month club and I see that's where the acorn came from. You might have sealed the deal for me. No matter the medium, you do breathtaking work. I probably overuse that word when it comes to your cards, but I mean it almost literally. Thank you for bringing beauty to my day!
ReplyDeleteLeslie, please don't apologize! I love your visits, you're my best customer! (she smiles). I am so delighted you like the cards. Spellbinders has really come a long way since we first purchased their classic dies (remember?). Now with the merge of Fun Stampers Journey their inventory of paper crafting products offers even more. I've actually thought about joining the Large Die of Month Club. You can cancel at any time. If you don't care for the monthly offering you can opt out. Thank you again for your visit and comment. Big hugs, Susie ~
