Hi friends! Well today is the Spellbinders Designers’ Blog Hop and I am happy to have you join me here. If you are new to my blog, welcome! I am going to be completely honest and tell you I embrace all styles of art. I love it all. Today I’ll be showing you some variations of one of my dies from my latest collection “My Little Red Wagon” by Spellbinders. Later in the week I might be dabbling in mixed media, party planning, watercoloring or pictures from my junkin escapades. Anyway, back to the blog hop. I have to say that I am so fortunate to work with some AMAZING artists and licensed designers at Spellbinders. They are good people, have creative minds, are very kind and I count myself fortunate to work with and alongside them. You will definitely want to click on their link and see what their favorite die is in their collection. (See link at bottom of this post.)
I was asked to pick my favorite die from my latest collection and though I have a few that are at the top, there was a tie between the wagon and the elephant. I thought of a billion, well not a billion, maybe a few hundred, ok, just eight ideas of different ways to change the wagon up, so that made the decision for me. I’m certain I will have the elephant in the spotlight again but if you want to see him, you can take a peek here. So back to my story. I called this “The Roundup” because that is pretty much what a wagon train does. I’ve lined up each and every one and I would love to hear which wagon is your favorite. So without further delay…
Riding in coach…aka Shabby Chic
The Flower Cart. Embellishment dies by the amazing Becca Feeken . (I really do get by with a little help from my friends!)
The Covered Wagon-Western Theme…
Grunged Up and No Place to Go…
Fourth of July Celebration…
Fall-o-ween…
It’s a Wrap…Remember it’s a box too!
So there are your eight styles. Which one would you make? Which one did you pic as your fav? Got an idea in your head? Would love to see your project.
I hope you enjoyed your stop here and that you’ll return. Remember to enter to win Spellbinder’s prize package. Click here to find out all about it!

These are an absolute delight , Debi . Love the variation of themes each one telling a little story of its own. Hard to pick a fave as they are all so lovely on their own right but being a grungy girl at heart I’d say that one caught my eye … until I scrolled on and saw the 4th of July wagon and the pumpkin …. Lets just say I love them all.

Vee Aiken says
I love ur elephant. The flower cart is ridiculously adorable.
For some reason I got a dumbo flashback, big time and u could have put the elephant in it, as a cart. A few straws , a roof topped with a banner flag. ? what can I say… I just loved Dumbo ?
Sandra Blazek says
My grandson is having a circus themed first birthday party in November your cart is adorable! 🙂
Penny Hanuszak says
Let me tell you you’ve used that die in such interesting ways it’s difficult to decide on a favourite so I’ll give you my two top picks. The grunge with no where to go looks like my childhood rusted out, hand me down wagon, so it ranked first. My second choice is the Falloween wagon……….too cute for words! Thanks for inspiring with your oh so creative ideas and designs.

Your Flower Cart is by far my favorite. (but I do like the 4th of July and the Pumpkin carts too) Becca Feeken has long been a favorite designer of mine, so I was glad to see your use of her dies.This cart is so adorable and I love the roof. Great job.
Carol A Razzano says
The 4th of July cart and wagon caught my eye immediately. I help out at our local polling place at election times and these items would look so smart on our tables..You can never go wrong with the Red, White and Blue theme. Thanks for sharing.
Diane Lynne Clemen says
Your Flower cart caught my eye immediately. Becca Feeken is one of my favorite designers, so I was glad to see your use of her dies.The roof is so very pretty. You have shown that there are so many possibilities for using this die. Many more are popping into my head as I type. Thank you for the inspiration.
(PS. Ella-Fant is too adorable for words)
Sharaine says
So many ideas…
Angie Hall says
I love the flower cart version. All them show your talents in thinking “out of the box” with this die.
Laura R says
Wow- so many different feelings and uses from one die!
Carol Harris says
Love them all but the “grunged up with no place to go” sorta spoke to me. I love the numbers on the hubs of the wheels, and for some reason I just love the inks looking all oxidized and grungy! Kinda like finding a treasure in a junk pile feeling… thanks for the creative turn on!
