    Christmas Traditions Inspiration with Jennifer Kotas

    October 7, 2021 / 1 Comment

    Hello! My name Jen and I’m so happy to be on the Spellbinders blog today. I’ve got two cards and a tag/ornament to share with you, all made from the new Christmas Traditions Collection. All of the hot foiling for the cards uses Aura Hot Foil Roll and all of the color was added with ink blending. I hot foiled the Holiday Florals Background twice on white cardstock. It was cut to 4” x 5 1/4” and placed on an A2 card base with foam tape. The sentiment from the Essential Christmas Greetings was hot foiled then die cut with the second largest Nestabilities Classic Ovals LG Etched Dies. This…

    Christmas Traditions Collection – Card Inspiration with Annie Williams

    October 6, 2021 / 2 Comments

    Hi there, this is Annie Williams and I’m excited to be back on the blog today to share a couple of projects using the new Christmas Traditions Collection from Spellbinders.  The classic holiday images, gorgeous Glimmer plates, and beautiful sentiments in this collection inspired me to create three colorful cards perfect for sending a little Christmas cheer. I love anything poinsettia for the holidays so I reached for the Holiday Florals Background Glimmer Plate first to foil a beautiful border for this bold and bright Christmas card. Trim a piece of white cardstock to 4” x 5.25”. Apply Gold Hot Foil to each corner using the Holiday Florals Background Glimmer…

    Christmas Traditions Inspiration with Andrea Shell

    October 5, 2021 / 1 Comment

    Hello! It’s Andrea Shell with you, and I’m delighted to be back as a guest on the Spellbinders blog. Today I have three cards to share with you using the festive Christmas Traditions Collection. My first card features the beautiful Rejoice Nativity Etched Dies. These dies make it so easy to create elegant Christmas cards! I cut the frame die from gold foil paper, white cardstock, and two shades of brown. I trimmed “rejoice” from the white frame and the manger from the dark brown one and layered them onto the gold frame. I cut the sky background from navy cardstock and layered it onto a white oval. I glued…

    The Christmas Traditions Collection – Three Takes on the Nativity Scene

    October 4, 2021 / 3 Comments

    Hello crafty friends! It’s Jean here sharing holiday cards created with the Christmas Traditions Collection at Spellbinders. The nativity products in this collection caught me eye, as I vividly remember a Christmas card depicting the Wise Men that I saw as a young child. With that inspiration in mind, I used the Three Kings stamp set and the Rejoice Nativity dies in three different ways. Let’s take a look. A color palette of white, gold, and a touch of silver put the emphasis on the nativity focal point. Create a 4 inches wide by 5¼ inches tall background with Christmas Traditions Paper Pad Attach to A2-size card base. With the…
