Handmade Kitchen-Themed Cards with Spellbinders Dies | Video Tutorial
Today I’m sharing two handmade cards that were such a joy to create! These cards combine Spellbinders utensil cutting dies, soft floral embellishments, and a lightly mixed media background to create sweet kitchen-themed designs that are perfect for many occasions.
The sentiment “Made with Love” fits perfectly with the cosy kitchen theme and makes these cards ideal for gifting to friends, family members, or anyone who loves cooking and baking.
Watch the Video Tutorial
In the video below you can see the full step-by-step process of creating both cards, from preparing the background to arranging the die cuts and flowers.
In the tutorial I show how I:
- create a light mixed media background
- assemble the kitchen utensils using Spellbinders dies
- combine the dies with floral elements
- layer everything together to create balanced card compositions
The Card Design
Both cards use the same concept but with slightly different color combinations and arrangements. The utensil die cuts create a fun kitchen theme while the flowers soften the design, giving the cards a warm and handmade feel.
The backgrounds were created using a simple mixed media technique, adding subtle texture and splatters that help the layers stand out without overwhelming the design.
Color Inspiration
For these cards, I chose warm colours: pink, purple, kraft and white accents. This palette works beautifully with the wood-like texture of the rolling pin and utensils, making the design feel natural and cosy.
Perfect for Many Occasions
These kitchen-themed cards would be wonderful for:
- housewarming gifts
- thank-you cards
- baking friends
- handmade gift packaging
- recipe gift cards
The “Made with Love” sentiment makes them especially meaningful for handmade gifts.
Supplies Used
Main supplies used for these cards include:
- Spellbinders utensil cutting dies
- cardstock in pink, purple, kraft and white
- floral die cuts and leaves
- foam adhesive for dimension
- mixed media background splatters
- sentiment die cut “Made with Love”
Final Thoughts
I love how combining unexpected elements like kitchen utensils and flowers creates a unique card design.
If you enjoy die cutting, layered embellishments, and creative backgrounds, this project is a fun one to try.
