I’m thrilled to share Elegant Posts and Labels Four SM with you...

{Embellished Glass Vase}

I love the look of metal on glass.  It is both elegant and timeless.  You can achieve this look using Spellbinders Premium Craft Foil, decorative paper and the new die templates I am revealing today.  This is certainly a fun way to decorate a vase, candle holder or any glass surface to personlise that gift and make it just that little bit more extra special.  Here is what you will need for this project:

{Supplies}

Spellbinders S5-032 Elegant Posts

Spellbinders S4-309 Labels Four SM

Spellbinders S4-190 Labels Four

Spellbinders Precious Metals Premium Craft Foils

Grand Calibur Die Cutting Machine

My Mind's Eye Patterned Paper
Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L E-Z Runner & 3D Foam Squares
Michael's Jewelry Essentials Findings

Sanding Block

Glass vase
Fresh Flowers

{How To}

In this video tutorial I demonstrate how I put my Elegant Post die template with sign together.  I also explain the  difference between Spellbinders S4-190 Labels Four and S4-309 Labels Four SM die templates, and why you will love owning both of these label sets.

{Pressed Ceiling inspired Wall Clock}

For my second project I was inspired by the beautiful lines of pressed tin ceilings.  I cut these Elegant Posts die cuts from cardstock and Spellbinders Premium Foil.  This particular Spellbinders Premium Craft Foil is an off white/ivory color on the one side and silver on the other.  Once sanded it created a beautiful petina finish to my embellishmetns.  I trimmed the posts and kept the detail pieces to complete my center design.  By nesting two of the Spellbinders S4-399 Labels Four SM die templates, one inside the other, I was able to cut a frame for my center embellishment.
