Hello! I’m recapping some of my holiday-themed cards created thus far with Spellbinders products. Click on the photos for the original posts containing details and supplies. I’ve been using a lot of glimmer foil this season! The Hello Holidays sale is underway, and a number of the supplies I used on the featured cards are on sale.

Spellbinders Winter Greetings + Sale
Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS, masculine holiday card created with Spellbinders products on which I combined diecutting, glimmer foiling, and dry embossing. This card design is similar to this one and this one; it’s become a favorite!
- I die-cut and assembled the Snowman.
- I cut a clipped square from the A2 patterned paper panel.
- I dry-embossed coordinating solid cardstock with the Cozy Knit folder and adhered it behind the patterned paper.
- I glimmer-foiled the Holiday Sentiments Series 2 sentiment on Whip Cream cardstock and cut it with a die in the set.
- I added the sentiment and snowman to the card front. I embellished with snowflakes cut with dies in the Snowflakes set and the Festive Wreaths set.

Spellbinders November Clubs Blog Hop
Hello! I am delighted to be participating in a blog hop sharing projects created with the Spellbinders November 2020 Club Subscriptions. You should have reached me from the blog of Virginia Lu. (The entire list of participants is included at the end of my post.) For the hop, I created a gift card holder showcasing the November Small Die of the Month kit from Spellbinders – “Frankie Goes to the North Pole.” (I previously shared cards created with the November Small Die of the Month set in this post. I shared gift card projects using the the Festive Wreaths Slider Card die set here.)
To celebrate this release, Spellbinders is giving away a $50 gift certificate to five lucky blog readers, selected from the comments on the Spellbinders blog. Giveaway closes on Sunday, November 15, 11:59 pm EDT. The winner will be announced in the blog hop post the following Tuesday. The winner is responsible for shipping cost, duties and taxes. Please note, store credit (gift certificate) cannot be applied to Club Subscriptions. Store credit can be applied to shop past Club products, Club extras and regular releases.
- To begin I die-cut and assembled Frankie. I set him aside.
- I glimmer foiled the Glimmer Gift Border in Gold on Candy Apple cardstock. I foiled the entire plate on the left-hand side of the cardstock. I then moved the plate down to foil the bottom-right side and finally moved the plate up to foil the upper-right side. In doing so I created more of a random background than had I simply glimmer foiled the full image on the right-hand side.
- I cut the top of the Festive Wreaths Slider Card using the foiled cardstock. (By the way, the Festive Wreaths Slider Card die set is one of the products in the Spellbinders BOGO sale!)
- I created the insert with patterned paper from a past Spellbinders kit. I backed the assembly with Candy Apple cardstock.
- To showcase the snowman, I cut a circle from Brush Gold cardstock and dry-embossed it with the Falala folder.
- I added Frankie, along with snowflakes cut with the Festive Wreaths Slider Card, to the dry-embossed circle and added the circle to the gift card assembly.
- Frankie is ready to be posted!

Spellbinders Quick Trimmer
Hello! I’m delighted to be sharing product news from Spellbinders – the introduction of the Quick Trimmer, with which you can accurately cut foil to size without any scratching and easily trim sentiment strips! This is a huge time saver when it comes to cutting foil! The trimmer comes with a self-healing mat, trimmer plate, and foil and paper blades. Check out this video for all of the details!
Earlier, I created a Halloween card using the trimmer, and today I am sharing a Christmas card of similar design.
