Three Cards From The St. Nick Set

 Today I have a clean and simple Christmas card that was made with the new St. Nick Die Set and Argyl Plaid 3D Embossing Folder from Spellbinders.

1.  To make my card, I embossed 3/4ths of a white cardstock panel with the Argyl Plaid 3D Embossing Folder, applied thin gold glitter washi tape where the embossing folder ends and glued it to a kraft colored card.

2.  I die-cut the trees from the St. Nick Die Set from two shades of green cardstock, kraft colored cardstock and the star from gold cardstock.

3. Once assembled, the trees on the right and left were glued flat and the center tree was popped up using foam tape from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.

4.  The Believe was die-cut from gold cardstock using the Snowflake Wishes Stamp and Die Set and glued to the bottom of the card.  The sentiment from the same set was stamped in green, die-cut and glued below the Believe.

5. Green rhinestones were randomly placed around the card.

This is the 3rd card that I have made with this set, here are the other two.

Slimline Santa Card

Today I have another card made using the St Nick Die Set from Spellbinders. This time I used the same die-cut pieces and sentiment but put it on a slimline card and got a completely different look.

St. Nick Die Set

For the background, I sponged blue ink on a white cardstock panel and glued white snowflakes that were die-cut from the St. Nick Set, to the background. 
The star was cut from gold cardstock and glued to the top right corner.

White glitter paper was hand cut and glued to the bottom of the panel. 

This panel was then mounted to a white slimline card.

St. Nick Christmas Card

 It's Christmas in July, that's when crafters start on Christmas cards, so they'll be done by the end of November and ready to mail out. After doing all of the work to make our beloved Christmas cards, we want the recipient to have the full month of December to display our cards.

My card is made using the St. Nick Die Set .

The background was made by adding Stormy Sky Distress Ink on a white cardstock that had been cut with the Emerald Cut Labels and Tag Die Set.

A Winter Hello

Today I have an all-occasion winter card that can be for Christmas, birthday, thank you, or a card just to say hi.

To make my card, I used the Snowman Etched Dies from Spellbinders. 

Snowman Etched Dies

The small snowman, scarf and hat band were die cut three times from white glitter cardstock from Printworks Specialty paper. The scarves and hat bands were sponged with different colors of Distress Inks.

Since this glitter paper is smooth, it can be stamped on and run through your printer. The faces were stamped using Onyx Black VersaFine Ink and the nose was colored using an orange alcohol marker, I used the ones from Spectrum Noir. 

The hats were die cut from black glitter paper.

Magic of Christmas

 I'm playing along with Color Hues Color Challenge #76, the colors are red and metallic gold, but you can also use neutrals.

I made a Christmas card using dies and stamps from Spellbinders, 

I used the Shapeabilities Layered Poinsettia Etched Die Set (it's on sale for $10.99 off!) and die cut red cardstock. A couple of layers were sponged with red ink to get some color variation. 

The leaves were die cut from gold foil cardstock.

To make the background, a white cardstock panel was embossed using the Autumn Serenade 3D Embossing Folder and it was glued to a top folding red card.

The Sentiment was made using the Snowflake Wishes Clear Stamp & Die Set ( sale $6.75 off ), "believe" was die cut from gold foil cardstock and black cardstock. The gold was layered on top of the black, slightly askew.

Fun Fold Christmas Card

Today I have a fun fold Card using dies and decorative paper from Rubbernecker Stamps and all of the adhesives used are from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.  To make my card, I cut a sheet of 8 1/2" x 11" periwinkle cardstock diagonally. The cardstock was then scored to create the fold. Next a 4" x 5 1/4" piece of decorative paper paper was then cut diagonally (this will make two cards) and one piece was taped to the bottom fold using TAPE RUNNER.

Snow fakes were die-cut from white cardstock and glued to the top fold of the card using the DUAL TIP. The snowflakes that were hanging over the edge were cut off.

To make the frame, white cardstock was die-cut using a scalloped rectangle and and a stitched rectangle that's slightly smaller was cut from periwinkle cardstock and attached using RUNNER

The frame was centered and glued to the left top fold of the card, using the DUAL TIP.  Believe was die-cut from the same carstock colors, glued together using the DUAL TIP. Hearts were placed aroud the sentiment using the HEARTS RUNNER and crystal micro fine glitter was sprinkled on.

Christmas Cheer

Wish your friends and family a little Christmas Cheer this holiday season with a cup of cocoa or hot toddy.

I used the Merry Mugs Die Set

and the Fran's Frames Dies both of these sets are from Spellbinders

I've had these red and black buffalo plaid note cards for a while and thought it would make a pretty background for my cup of cocoa. That's how I came up with this color combo, and I think I'll make more experimenting with different colors.

The white paper is white glitter paper from PrintWorks Specialty Paper (available on Amazon) so it has a lot of sparkle for the holidays.

* I colored the snowmen with Prismas Colored Pencils and added Crystal Stickles to the fur on the hats.

* The postage die from the Stampendous Fran's Frames Etched Dies was used to layer the sentiment and it was popped up.

* The snow on the ground was embossed using some chunky white and gold embossing powder. It was heated from underneath so the embossing powder wouldn't blow away.
