Spellbinders – Santa Parade

Hello! Today, I am sharing three takes with the same die set from the Spellbinders A Sweet Christmas Collection by Sharyn Sowell. All three of the CAS holiday cards showcase the Santa Parade set which is part of this fabulous collection. The parade die measures a generous 7″ x 3″. With little effort, this set packs a big punch! I cut the parade out of black cardstock, glitter cardstock, and white cardstock, which I colored with Distress Inks. On all three cards, the bases are 7 ¼” x 4″; the rectangle backgrounds are 7″ x 3 ¾”.

For the card featuring the black cardstock parade silhouette, I used a sentiment from the same die set. I cut the sentiment twice from brushed gold cardstock for extra depth; I used the same gold cardstock for the base.

I heat-embossed a Hero Arts sentiment for the card on which I cut the parade from glitter cardstock. The gray cardstock base lends a cozy feel with the patterned paper.

On my final card, I used Distress Inks in Festive Berries, Barn Door, and Fired Brick to color white cardstock before cutting the cardstock with the parade die. I heat-embossed the Hero Arts sentiment on to the solid teal cardstock rectangle. To finish, I sprinkled on Taylored Expressions sequins.
