Set Sail with 11 Nautical-Inspired Spellbinders June Club Cards! ⚓

Friday, June 06, 2025 | By: Lea Lawson

Ahoy, crafty friends! ⚓ Grab your captain’s hat and a steaming cup of coffee (or a bubbly beachside beverage?), because we’re setting sail on a creative voyage through Spellbinders Club magic!

🌊 The June "Seas the Day" kits are making waves with adorable sea critters, nautical vibes, and sun-kissed summer scenes you won’t want to miss! 🐚✨ New club sign-ups are open today, and if you’re a current subscriber, you can still add clubs. However, if you’d like to switch to the Deluxe Caboodle, be sure to do so by the 5th of the month!

Each month, I challenge myself to showcase every product in the kit across all 11 cards. I might miss a sentiment here and there or a tiny detail die, but for the most part—you’ll get to see the whole Caboodle in action as you browse today’s post!

I had such a hard time picking favorites this month because I truly fell in love with every kit as I created! These three cards feature two of the die set clubs, plus a few extra goodies. I just can't get over how adorable the salty sailor walrus and his seagull first mates are—not to mention all the punny sentiments and perfectly paired backgrounds!

And when I saw that Glimmer club members were getting Opal foil in their kits, I may have squealed a little! ✨ It was the perfect, subtle touch to bring this fishing net background to life.

All clubs will be linked below for easy clicking!

I can’t get over how much I love this card set now that it's finished! The curvy background came to life using the wave die from the Stitching set—without the stitching details. I always love finding new ways to stretch my supplies, and this simple die turned out to be the perfect trick for adding bold pops of color!

It’s a great reminder that sometimes, less is more—you don’t always have to use every detail layer to create something beautiful. Hope this inspires you to experiment and make your supplies work for you! 🌊✨

For my final June club cards, the Harbor Weave BetterPress plate takes center stage, bringing a sophisticated touch of texture to these designs! Inked in sunset hues of pink, orange, and turquoise on Porcelain cotton paper, this letterpress detail gives a subtle nod to the Nautical theme while keeping the look crisp and timeless.

To elevate the elegance, I paired these cards with hot foil sentiments and the Wax Seal kit, adding just the right amount of shimmer and detail. There’s something truly magical about the way letterpress and foiling come together—it’s like sending a little piece of the sea, wrapped in artistry. ✨⚓🐚
