Die D-Lites Holiday Inspiration | Treat Bag with Anya Lunchenko
Hello everyone! My name is Anya Lunchenko, I am excited to be a guest designer on the Spellbinders blog! Holiday related projects are my favorite to create and today I wanted to share with you a treat bag I made using some of my favorite dies by Spellbinders. I used the Silhouette digital die cutting machine to cut the bag shape and a number of different Spellbinders dies to decorate it. After assembling the bag together, I made two dimensional Christmas trees and added them to the bag with pop dots. I used the Nuvo drops in white to add the snow effect to these trees. To the right of…

Faux Stained-Glass Holiday Cards by Christine Smith as seen in Simply Cards and Papercraft Issue 183
Today we have a special guest – Christine Smith (visit Christine’s Blog and Youtube channel) sharing her Stained-Glass Holiday Cards Masterclass published in the Simply Cards and Papercraft Issue 183 (you can purchase this issue HERE). The faux-stained glass look is such an easy technique to master, and it’s so versatile too! Simply cut a couple of the same die-cut, stack them together, add colour (by any means you can think of!) then fill the ‘wells’ created by the stacked dies with Nuvo crystal glaze. Leave this base piece to dry overnight, then simply add another die-cut over the top to give a neat and finished look. For a really…

Die D-Lites Holiday Inspiration | Clean and Simple Christmas Tags with Laurie Willison
Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie Laurie Willison here. I am so glad you are joining me today. Today I wanted to share a variety of tags using the Holiday D-lites Dies. They are the most adorable dies that create amazing dimension when embossed. Today I am using the Reindeer, Santa, Snowman and Christmas Tree D-lite dies. I tend to make lots of tags for gifts at Christmas time and the simpler the better when it comes to mass production. To create these tags, I used the D-lites Santa and Reindeeer dies. The Santa tag was created using a basic tag die along with a Rectangle die to create an embossed…

Die D-Lites Holiday Inspiration | Christmas Tree Cards with Kimberly Crawford
Hello everyone! Kimberly Crawford back again today to share another peek at the Holiday Die D-Lites. I don’t know about you, but when I get a brand-new set of dies, I cut them right away. That way I can see what they look like, see the size, see the details, see all the good stuff! So often I get so focused on the image (positive cut image) that I forget to take a look at the left-over pieces (negative image). Christmas Tree Die D-Lites are a perfect example of a set of dies that have incredible positive and negative images! The original die cut image is meant to layer together…

Die D-Lites Holiday Inspiration | More Christmas Cards with Enza Gudor
Hello there! This is Enza Gudor, and today I’m back to share a new set of cards showcasing the adorable Holiday Die D-Lites Dies. You can find my first post here. I decided to go with a less traditional color scheme this time: pink and teal, with touches of red and green. For the first card, I used the Die D-Lites Christmas Dies and the Die D-Lites Snowflakes Dies. I started by adhering a 4×5.5” teal plaid patterned paper onto an A2 sized pink dotted paper. I then assembled the tree. I love that this set comes with two dies that allow you to create separate layers and have fun with colors and patterns!…
