Charmed is an meaningful new way of celebrating monthly birthdays with birthstones. Gemstone stickers and accents have long been counted on as a great basic in a papercrafter's stash of supplies.

Here are a few more details on my personal creations!
This garnet birthday card was super easy to create, and you could easily do it for any of the birthstone colors. I created my card base from Scarlet Jewel, which is a close match for a true garnet color.
I die-cut the sentiment from Charmed and stamped it in Scarlet Jewel. The companion sentiment was added underneath in black.
I cut all of the solid jewel shapes from the white yardstick layer and adhered the whole card front with foam tape for dimension. I then cut the small gem frames (You're a Gem dies) from our gold adhesive sheets and adhered those directly to the Scarlet Jewel card base. The dimension of the gems, along with the shine of the gold is such a nice touch!
This treasure card is done in shades of citrine gems, which cover a range of oranges. I started by stamping the sentiment from You're a Gem in black ink.
I then created an sunburst type of arrangement with stamped gems in black ink, I colored them with Copic markers. The center gem is the lightest color and then I worked my way outwards darkening the hues. I used a pen to add some shimmer over each gem.
I hope you have enjoyed all these amazing creations that both the team and I have shared with you today! Are you a big birthstone fan? Or maybe just a fan of sparkle? Can you see yourself using these new stamps and dies to create cards for your loved ones? We would love to hear your initial thoughts on everything we introduced!
