Hello! I’ve got two cards and a tag/ornament to share with you, all made from the new Christmas Traditions Collection from Spellbinders.

All of the hot foiling for the cards uses Aura Hot Foil Roll and all of the color was added with Concord and 9th inks.

I hot foiled the Holiday Florals Background Glimmer Plate 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 (discontinued ).This along with the foiled and die cut Holiday Florals were added with foam squares.

I hot foiled the Diamonds Glimmer Plate once on a piece of white cardstock cut to 3 1/2“ x 5 1/4”. I die cut the diamonds from the same set from the Christmas Traditions 6” x 8” Paper Pad and added them to the hot foiled diamonds with thin foam squares. I also added a small strip of pattern paper and gold cardstock to the edge. The sentiment from the Essential Christmas Greetings was hot foiled then die cut with the second largest Nestabilities Classic Ovals LG Etched Dies (discontinued ). It was added with foam tape and the panel was then placed on an A2 card base with foam tape.

All the pieces from the Through the woods die set were cut out of white cardstock and colored with Concord and 9th inks. I assembled the ornament, popping everything up with thin foam squares. I added Nuvo Drops in White Blizzard in certain places on the die cuts as well as on the entire sentiment. I added a bow and twine to hang it with.

The cards are very clean and simple and easy to recreate. Inking everything added a bit more flare than using colored cardstock but it’s not necessary. Thanks for visiting!
