Spellbinders | Reindeer Mug Christmas Card

Hello! There’s nothing like a warm drink on a winter day, and this handmade card captures that feeling with a festive reindeer-shaped mug, created with the July Small Die of the Month Club kit at Spellbinders. The sentiment “snuggle season” perfectly sets the tone, while the background patterned paper adds to the holiday theme. The versatile Cocoa Greetings” kit also includes dies to create Santa and penguin mugs—plenty of options for festive creativity!

    • Cover an A2-size card base with a patterned paper panel.
    • Cut the mug with dies in the Cocoa Greetings” set. Assemble.
    • Press sentiment and cut with its coordinating die.
    • Add assembled mug and sentiment to card base with foam adhesive.

The Christmas mug makes an adorable and substantial focal point, and the creative fun comes in deciding which mug to build, what colors to use, and how to tie everything together with background and accents for a festive, personal touch.
