Spellbinders | Camper Life Winter Birthday

Hello! I am sharing a winter birthday card featuring the incredibly versatile Camper Life die set, part of the Warm Wishes Camper Collection at Spellbinders. Check out all the new collections here. I used the Camper Life die set on a Halloween card and a holiday card. Scroll for details about the Spellbinders  Back to School Sale that runs until August 28, 2022, 11:59 PST.

  • I created the background snow by applying Deco Foil Blanco Transfer Gel through the Layered Christmas Tree stencil on to Cosmic Sky cardstock. In order to cover the entire background (the card is 5 inches wide by 7 inches tall) I stenciled twice. Once dry, I added the panel to a card base.
  • With the Camper Life die set, I cut the camper and snowbank from Snowdrift, LagoonPhone Booth, Timber, Beeswax, white glitter, and silver foil cardstock.
  • I heat-embossed the Sweet & Savory sentiment on Lagoon cardstock and cut it with a Spellbinders banner die.
  • I added the camper assembly, snowbank, and sentiment to the card background.
