Rubbernecker Die-cut Snowmen Card

Hello! Today, I am sharing a winter-themed, friendship card featuring Rubbernecker die-cut snowmen. Just because the holidays are over, it doesn’t mean that winter-themed craft dies and stamps have to be stored away with the decorations. Use them to brighten up someone’s day! Of course, you can use these same supplies to create a Christmas card with a red-and-green color scheme.

Rubbernecker Die-cut Snowmen Card

  • Create card background from patterned paper cut with the largest die in the Mini Slimline Nested with Stitch set, measuring 6 by 3 ½ inches.
  • Create a 6 by 3 inches rectangle from colored paper or cardstock. Cut with the Circles Stitch die in the center, using washi tape to secure the die to the paper. Trim ¼ inch from both sides (the larger original size provides more wiggle room).
  • Die-cut snowmen from various colors of paper and cardstock with the Winter Snowmen set and assemble.

  • •With white powder, heat-emboss the Snowmen with Presents sentiment on dark blue paper. Trim heat-embossed panel to a size slightly larger than the die-cut circles.
  • From the back of the paper rectangle with the die-cut circles, attach the sentiment to show in the center circle.
  • Create a 6 inch by 2 ½ inches strip from pink paper and attach to the back of the die-cut circle strip.
  • To highlight the circle frame, attach white cardstock strip measuring 6 by 2 3/4 inches to the back of the die-cut circle assembly. Adhere to card background ¼ inch from the left edge. The asymmetry creates visual interest.
  • Position the die-cut Winter Snowmen in the top and bottom circles and adhere. (Photo below shows the die-cut pieces before final assembly.)

Spellbinders Mini Slimline Layering Basics

I am delighted to share two cards created with the recently released Mini Smiline Layering Basics sets – Precision Layering Mini Slimline A and B – at Spellbinders.

Both cards measure 3 1/8 x 6 1/8 inches. I die-cut the layers using the A and B dies. Each set contains 12 dies with which to cut spaced layers of 1/8 inch. When combined with the other set, you will achieve a 1/16-inch border.

On both, I die-cut sentiments from Snowdrift cardstock with the Smooth Lines die set.

Spellbinders Color Block Thank You

Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS Thank You card created with the Be Bold Color Block Thank You die set at Spellbinders. The Be Bold Color Block collection features die sets with which you can quickly and easily create bold and graphic greetings. I shared projects created with other dies in the collection here and here.

On the first card, I die-cut the “THANK” letters from glitter cardstock with the Be Bold Color Block Thank You set. I used the die to hold the letters as I taped them together from the back. I adhered the assembly to an Onyx card base measuring 3.25 x 6.25 in. I die-cut the “you” letters from white glitter cardstock, which I adhered to letters cut from Snowdrift cardstock. I added the letters to the card base with foam adhesive.

For the second card, I die-cut the “THANK” letters from Onyx cardstock with the Be Bold Color Block Thank You set. I die-cut the background in sections from the glitter cardstock. I used the die to tape all of the pieces together. I then added an additional set of Onyx letters. I constructed the “you” letters as I did on the first card.
