Spellbinders April 2020 Club Kits Blog Hop: APG 3D Vintage Vignette Typewriter Birthday Card
Hello, Friends! Welcome to the Spellbinders April 2020 Club Kits Blog Hop. You should be coming here from BIBI’S blog. If so , you are right on track. You can find a complete blog hop list at the bottom of this post. Today, I’m sharing another adorable Amazing Paper Grace Vintage Vignette Typewriter card. If you missed the cute pink and black typewriter card that I shared earlier this month, you can find that HERE.
I love a snarky greeting on a birthday card, don’t you? So I paired this adorable 3D Vintage Vignette Typewriter Die up with Authentique Paper’s Party Paper Collection. Insert a 3″ x 4″ sentiment card from the collection in the typewriter “roller”. Then use the die from the kit to cut extra designer paper “pages”. Place dimensionals between these layers for even more depth and dimension. Finally, create a banner with stickers from the Party collection kit.
Die cut the pieces of the 3D Vintage Vignette Typewriter from foil cardstock and patterned papers as I did here. To add extra depth and detail, run the die cuts through a second time using the embossing plate and mat. Then assemble the pieces with dimensionals between the layers. As a final touch, place a small dab of Ranger Black Enamel Dots on each key for extra shine and dimension.
APG 3D Vintage Vignette Typewriter Birthday Card: A Peek Inside
Turn the card into a sweet little gift by adding pockets on the inside. First, tuck in a little chocolate and a blank sentiment card on the bottom. Then create a gift card wallet and tuck into a second pocket on the top half of the card.
Such a great snarky sentiment!

Thanks for the amazing inspiration! I am totally in love with the new products! Especially the April card kit!
Lol, the fun sentiment inside makes this card do double duty. It’s gorgeous and humorous at the same time, my favorite combo. I love the colors you used and that typewriter die is a real stand out.
Thanks, Shartl! This is one of my favorite paper collections. It’s as though it was made with this little typewriter in mind. Glad you are enjoying the hop!

Another delightful card, Kathy. Your take on the Spellbinders Kit is vintage Kathy! tfs-Hugs.
Oh my goodness. What an amazing project you created. So many details and little surprises. I love it so much.
Thank you so much! I had such fun imagining and creating this card for the hop. Glad you enjoyed it as well!
This is incredible! I Love this typewriter and the vintage look! I LOVE all the layers and flower accents you added! Just amazing inside and out!
Ah, Kathy! Today was my day to catch up on Kathy By Design posts in my inbox, and this just happened to be the first! Now it looks as if I will have a busy day (or five) to play along in this blog hop. No money for new crafty items, so it would be fun to win! How generous!
As for your card, I just love the design and that fabulously put together typewriter! It must have taken ages to do all those keys! Having the snarky birthday sentiment rolling off the roller is so clever and the checked ribbon is the perfect compliment/embellishment as are the flowers. I particularly love the snarky sentiment card in the pocket within (and the chocolate). I hope you’re having a great day! Much love!
What great colors and details. I can tell that it is a Kathy card. LOVE IT!!!!
Hello Kathy, my old friend! This card is completely adorable!! So much candy for the eyes! It’s so nice to stop by and see you again. Hope you are well.
Your cards are always just exquisite and the combination of those vintage papers with the typewriter die make for such a beautiful card. The front is already fabulous but the humorous sentiment and chocolate inside make this a gift in itself.
Beautiful color combo and embellishments! Love the typewriter!
I love the typewriter and all the dimension you added. The colors are so pretty together ❤️
Thank you so much! As soon as I got the die, I knew I wanted to make this card. Thanks for hopping!
Really cute, love the nostalgic designs.
It was fun to make! The foil really makes the die pop.
My little typewriter arrived this week. Been cleaning and destashing my craft studio so haven’t had a chance to play!!
Oh, yay! You will have fun! Thanks for hopping!
This is Wonderful! The details are Amazing! ❤
Thanks, Traci! I love adding little details to my stuff.
This card is just awesome! I love this typewriter die, glad I subscribe to the club. I too like snarky birthday cards and this one is fabulous.

Your card is an absolute delight! I love all of your layers!
Thank you so much! I’m all about the layers! LOL
Very cute! I used to have an old typewriter that had been my grandfather’s. I wish I still had it today!
Oh, that would be a real treasure now. Sometimes you can find them at the flea market. Thanks for hopping!
First I want to express my appreciation for your excellent designs, enthusiastic approach to teaching us how to accomplish each project and for generously sharing your sources! And yes, snarky is so great! I was overjoyed to see the return of this die in todays project. It reminds me of my Aunt’s Royal typewriter she left me. Still works! Who doesn’t love a beautiful Mother’s Day card and such beautiful feminine touch you’ve added – very inspiring. Any Mom would smile ear–to–ear when she received this card!
What a cute, fun card, Kathy! The 3-D effects with the sentiment cards in the roller is really cool!. The ribbons and flowers are such a great match and I really like the way you have layered the different papers. Your paper combinations always look so perfect! Thank you for sharing! Hugs!
Lovely palette on this charming design, and even more delightful on the inside. Thanks for sharing this inspiration with these fun products.
Very interesting vintage style cards. Love the extra dimension you added with different layers.
wow – love your typewriter card and how you added the pockets on the inside – clever!! TFS!
Thank you! I almost always add a pocket inside my cards. That way, they double as a gift.
beautiful design loved the colors, can be seen as old fashion
Thank you so much! I was going for vintage, so that works for me!
Wow!! I love how you blinged out Becca’s wonderful typewriter! Amazing! Thank you.
Thank you, adding that foil paper really made the little details in the die pop.
What a beautiful card!! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much! And thanks for hopping!

It’s like going back in time with your ideas. So clever. So enjoyable.
Wow, thank you, Denorah! I do love a vintage vibe. It just seemed to fit with this die. Thanks for hopping!
Stunning card!
Thank you so much, Judy! Enjoy the hop!
Hi, I learned to type on a manual typewriter, oh my. Then came the electric typewriter and then computers. Do I miss the old manual? No, especially with a mistake, had to correct the original and all the carbon copies, ugh. This die is so cute though, i love it, and no mistakes typing, lol.
Yup! Me, too, Barbara! Give me a keyboard any day! But I do think learning to type on a manual made you pay more attention to proper posture and hand position and all the rest. My husband picked up a manual recently and I tried it out. Hard work! And yes…this die is super cute!
Kathy, you inspire me so! You are incredibly talented….Love your typewriter card.
Wow, Deb! Thank you so much! I just really love to play with paper. I’m so glad you are finding inspiration here! Happy crafting!
Oh man – that is AWESOME. I love this – well done!
Wow…thank you, Jenefer! I’m so glad you enjoyed it! You just made my day!
Love what you did with the typewriter!
Thank you so much! It’s a very versatile die!
stunning!!!
LOVE the typewriter card both inside and out – thanks for sharing the eye candy:)
I haven’t used my typewriter yet I so need to….you have used so many layers love it
Thanks, Judy! Foam dimensionals! LOL I love layers and dimension. Hope you have fun with your die!
Adorable, beautiful card with all those “cute” sentiments!!! I just don’t know if I can live without that typewriter die! I used to have a real one just like it …so wish I’d of kept it!!! Luv theses Authentique papers! Thanks for sharing another great card design Kathy! Hugs, Suzy Q
Love the typewriter to go with this sentiment, the blue color and the black and white ribbon.
Wow gorgeous card…..very intricate 🙂
Thank you, Fiona! Yes, this die has a lot of little pieces. But it’s not that hard to put together once you get the hang of it!
Gorgeous card and that typewriter sure brings back lots of memories using them at work – then came the computers – but I still have a soft spot for the typewriter!! Great work Kathy!!
That typewriter is gorgeous! So creative!
