Cake Caper – Spellbinders Press & Foil of the Month | November, 2026
This month’s Spellbinders Press & Foil of the Month, Cake Caper, is guaranteed to bring a smile! One of the things I love about this month’s set is its versatility. The plates can be used with both the BetterPress System and the Glimmer Hot Foil System, giving you lots of creative possibilities. The set features three adorable geese getting up to various antics, along with four fun sentiments. I decided to use the BetterPress system to create three sweet and playful birthday cards.

Card Details
I began by pressing each of the three goose images individually onto BetterPress Porcelain A2 Cardstock using BetterPress Black Ink. Each image was pressed onto a separate panel, which I then trimmed to 2¾” x 4”.
Next, I used the coordinating stencils to quickly and easily add colour to the images. I chose a combination of Distress Oxide Inks, including Vintage Photo, Spun Sugar, Saltwater Taffy, and Wild Honey. The stencils make colouring these adorable images so easy, while adding just the right amount of colour and detail.
Each finished panel was matted onto black cardstock measuring 3” x 4¼”, creating a nice contrast with the soft pink A2 card bases made from Blush Colorwheel Cardstock.
For the sentiments, I once again used the BetterPress System, pressing them in black ink onto Porcelain Paper. I used the coordinating dies to cut out each sentiment, along with additional layers of black sheet foam. The sentiments were mounted onto the foam for added dimension and placed just beneath each of the three images.
A sprinkling of Berry Self-Adhesive Gems added the finishing touch to these sweet birthday cards.
Closing Thoughts
I absolutely love how these cards turned out! The combination of the adorable geese, soft pink cardstock, and pops of warm colour makes for such a fun collection of birthday cards. Cake Caper is a delightful set, and I love that it can be used with both the BetterPress and Glimmer systems. Whether you’re creating birthday cards or simply looking for something a little whimsical, these cheeky geese are sure to make someone’s day!
