Spellbinders | Christmas Delivery

Hello! Today I am sharing Christmas-themed projects created with the Spellbinders Christmas Delivery Printed Die Cuts, part of the Oh! What Fun Collection. The Christmas Delivery set includes sentiment banners and focal items including gift-givers with bodies and legs that can move. I created two tags and three A2-size cards with the die cuts.

I added textural interest to the backgrounds with embossing folders and a stencil. I used the Puff Dotty 3D Embossing Folder and the Faux Stitch Embossing Folder. For the snow, I used white embossing paste through the Layered Christmas Tree Stencil and sprinkled on Sparkle Dust Glitter.

I created hills for the tags and cards with a die in the Warm Wishes Camper set and with the Color Block Scenic Scape dies.

Additional snowflakes were cut with dies in the Let It Snowman, Chill Bear, and Holiday Decorations sets. I embellished the Christmas tree and the coats on the gift-givers with Poppy Pearl Dots.

I trimmed the sentiment banners with a die in the Holiday Sentiments Series 2 set.
