Hello and Ho, Ho, Ho! Today, I am sharing tags featuring Spellbinders Holiday Die D-Lites. I have used the Santa die set on one and the Snowman set on the other! Spellbinders has generously provided me with a Santa die set and Snowman die set to giveaway to one reader (US addresses only please). I have details on the giveaway at the end of the post.
On the Santa, the hat, the beard, the face, and the mustache were cut and embossed. I cut his hat from red cardstock and used a snow marker to add the white fur. Similarly, I cut his face from peach cardstock and used the snow marker to add his eyebrows.
There are lots of options on how to craft these sets. For example, I have seen examples where the hat and the face are cut from white cardstock and colored with Copic markers (in which case the fur pieces are left uncolored as are his eyebrows).
For the Snowman, I cut and embossed the hat, the face, the holly leaves and berries, and the scarf. I cut the hat and eyes from a black foil.
Using the die in the Happy Grams set, I cut patterned paper to create the tag bases. On both tags, I used a sentiment from the Charming Tag Sentiments set, which I cut with a die in the A-2 Matting Basics B set.
Now to the giveaway! I like all sorts of Christmas decorating styles and color combinations – whimsical, rustic/farmhouse, traditional, … and have decorated over the years in a number of different styles. To enter the giveaway (US addresses only please), simply comment on this post telling me your favorite Christmas decorating style by Thursday, October 25, 9 PM PDT. I’ll contact the winner on Friday, October 26.
