Spellbinders | Festive Christmas Ornaments

Hello! Today, I am delighted to share a Christmas card featuring the Festive Ornaments die set from the Merry Mugs & Circle Delights Collection at Spellbinders by Nichol Spohr. The ornaments take center stage against a backdrop of patterned paper. Previously, I shared a slimline card featuring this same die set HERE. Note: Now through November 30, save on many Spellbinders products with the Black Friday Sale!

With the Festive Ornaments set, cut ornament bases from red foil and green foil cardstock. With the same set, cut ornament holders from Brushed Gold and Brushed Silver. Cut the decorative elements from red glitter, green glitter, and Brushed Gold cardstock. Assemble.

After creating the ornaments, I went on the hunt for patterned paper on which to stamp a sentiment from the collection’s coordinating Santa’s Sippin’ Sayings stamp set. I stamped, as well as heat-embossed, one of the sentiments on several patterned papers and was not happy with the results; the sentiment simply did not show up enough. Going back to the drawing board, I found this patterned paper – Wonder of the Season – that was sold by Stampin’ Up! in 2020. I chose the paper because it had whimsical text on it, enabling me to forgo the sentiment. To embellish, I added snowflakes cut from Gold Glitter Foam with a die in the Holiday Decorations set.
