The Gina K Designs team would like to welcome you to this special Spellbinders™ "Thank You" blog hop.
For a list of those participating today, check out Stamp TV. If you didn't come from Gina's blog, make sure to stop by there first!
For my card, I used the Stamp TV kit from February, Sent with Love. I used the S4-292 Beaded Circles, and S4-114 Standard Circles LG, and the S4-239 Classic Scalloped Borderabilites Petites from Spellbinders.
I stamped the butterfly on the white circle and then again onto a scarp piece of cardstock. I cut out the hearts, popped them upon to the main image and covered them with stickles.
A little about the Grand Calibur-
It's about 10lbs, and has a GRAND sized platform! You can run up to 2 whole sets of Nestabilities through it at one time- (depending on the set of course! ;)
Here is all of what you get with the Grand Calibur. The A Base Plate; The C Cutting Plate; the B Embossing Plate; and the tan Embossing Mat.
For a quick size reference- here is my Grand next to my Wizard- fyi, that white tray pops out to run card stock through with out trimming first!
And here you can see the S5-029 Nested Lacey Pennants dies, The S4-324 Ribbon Banners, and part of the the S5-027 Labels Twenty-One dies. (You may have seen some "snippets" that work with the above sets on Gina's blog already! ;)
You can run ALL of these through at one time!
Here are most of the Grand sized dies, they all coordinate and nest with the regular classic Nestabilities™.
So you can see just how much larger they are- A grand set and a regular set.
An A2 sized card front with the largest of the regular Nestabilities™.
And here is the largest of the grand set on an 8 1/2 x 11" sheet of card stock- Which you can run through the machine as is.
Make sure to head on over to Carolina's blog next!!!
And make sure to check out Stamp TV!

Wonderful card AJ! Love it !!
Wow! Those are huge!
Beautiful cards & thanks so much for all the information on the Grand Calibur & dies!
I love this machine as it was a gift from my husband who understands how much I enjoy making cards. Thanks for these great photos showing how to use all the dies. At this point I only own four sets and have already used them over and over again. I still love my little work horse Cuttlebug and have also purchased the long A spacer, 2 B Cutting & C Adapter boards. All these wonderful new tools make your workplace a fun place to be at.
Beautiful card!
What a cute card! This Nestabilities tool has been on my wish list for a while now!
Can't do without the Spellbinder dies. Truly, I use them for nearly every card I make!
Wonderful card. Thanks for sharing.
