Hi card making friends and happy Monday. Today I have 3 Sealed for Christmas Cards to share with you created with the Sealed For Christmas products released recently by Spellbinders.

This Sealed for Christmas release is full of fun and innovative products to step up your Christmas Card Making game.  Including a pile of fun new wax seals, and check out all the beautiful new WAX COLORS too.

PLEASE NOTE: This post contains affiliate links. See below for my full disclosure

I really enjoyed the Distress Oxide Ink color combo I used last week on THIS CARD, so I decided to use it again, and with a little color tweak on one card as well.  I really like the soft pastel feel of these cards, it’s a change up from my usual BRIGHT in your face cards, haha.

And of course, I love to create wax seals.

When I’m doing a card series, I like to choose one background die set to incorporate.  Today I’m using Spellbinders Notched Corner Frame die set.  I used three different sized dies to showcase the art pieces on my cards.  For today’s cards I also used the Sealed for Christmas Sprigs Etched Dies on all three cards but in different ways.  They cut beautifully with deep etched details.

Sealed for Christmas Cards Card #1

Start by cutting a piece of white cardstock 4″ x 5-1/4″.  Ink blend Distress Oxide Inks in Mowed Lawn, Rustic Wilderness and Pine Needles, then place it inside the Deco Holiday Embossing Folder and run it through the Platinum 6 die cutting machine.  Then, attach it to a top folding A2 sized white card base. (4-1/4″ x 11″, score and fold at 5-1/2″).
Next, use the Notched Corner Frames and Die cut a background piece from Blue Spruce cardstock.

Then, die cut the Poinsettia pieces 3 times and glue the pieces together.  Use a small blending brush and add Rustic Wilderness Ink to the leaves.

Finally, wrap the bottom of the Notched Corner Frame piece with the NEW Gold Circle Metallic Cord (LOVE this stuff), before attaching it to the center of the card with foam tape.  Add the 3 poinsettias, and then create a was seal with the Joy to the World Seal from the 3 Pack Wax Seal Holiday kit and Matcha colored wax beads.

 

Sealed for Christmas Cards #2

Start with a white A2 sized top folding card base 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ score and fold at 4-1/4″.

Next, cut a piece of the NEW Gold GLITTER Cardstock 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″ and attach to the card front.

PRO-TIP – the new Gold Glitter cardstock is fabulous.  It has a very thin plastic covering and it doesn’t shed – None of the Spellbinders Glitter paper does.

Then, use the Notched Corner Frames to create a second white card front.

Finally, die cut 5 poinsettias from white cardstock, 6 large holly leaves from the gold Glitter cardstock.  Wrap DMC gold thread around the white Notched Corner Frame and secure at the back before adding it to the card base with foam tape.  Use small pieces of foam tape and white glue to add the gold leaves and then the poinsettias.  Create a wax seal with gold wax and the new Merry Christmas Oval Wax Seal.  Color the lettering with the gold pen to highlight.

Adding the gold pen ink to the raised lettering really helps it to stand out.

Sealed for Christmas Cards #3

Start by cutting a piece of white cardstock 4″ x 5-1/4″, ink blending the entire surface with Distress Oxide Inks:  Pine Needles, Rustic Wilderness and Evergreen Bough.  Next, place into the Evergreen 3D Embossing Folder and run it through the Platinum 6 die cutting machine.  Then, attach it to a top folding A2 sized card base (4-1/4″ x 11″, score and fold at 5-1/2″).

Next, die cut a white card front using the Notched Corner Frame dies.  Wrap it with the Gold Metallic Metal Cord before attaching it to the card base with foam tape.

Then, Die cut the foliage.  Use a small blending brush to add some Evergreen Bough Ink to the large holly leaves and then attach them all to the card.  Cut the flower centers from the Gold Glitter paper.

Finally, create a oval wax seal with Pink Damask Wax and the new Merry Christmas Oval seal.
