Spellbinders To You and Yours Holiday Card

Hi cardmaking friends – welcome back!   Today I’m sharing my Spellbinders To You and Yours Holiday Card, created with Spellbinders Clear Stamp and Die of the Month and the 3D Embossing Folder of the Month.  This design is quick and easy to make, yet packed with beautiful texture and dimensions.  By ink blending a soft blue ombre background before embossing, you’ll create amazing depth and visual interest – all with just two simple layers.  I hope this project inspires you to try it out and add a little handmade magic to your holiday cards!

Step-by-Step instructions on how to create the Spellbinders To You and Yours Holiday Card:

When I start creating my annual holiday cards, I like to come up with clean and simple ideas that don’t take a lot of time to make – especially since we send out a ton of cards each year!  I hope you enjoy this one;  it’s super easy to recreate and perfect for beginner card makers looking for a quick and festive project.

1 – Emboss the main image:

Start by white heat embossing the stamped tree image onto a panel of white cardstock measuring4-1/4″ x 5-1/2.

Next, ink blend three shades of blue in an ombre pattern from light to dark.  Once the blending is complete, us a dry cloth to gently wipe away any excess ink sitting on top of the embossed areas.

Finally, use the coordinating die to cut out the tree image, creating a clean and dimensional focal point.

2 – Dry Emboss the Background

Using the negative piece from the tree die cut, place it inside the Brick by Brick 3D embossing folder and run it through your die-cutting machine to create a textured background.

Next, attach the embossed panel to a top folding A2-sized white card base (4-1/4″ x 11″, score and fold at 5-1/2″.

Then, add foam squares to the back of the die-cut tree and position  it over the matching cut-out area on the embossed background for added dimension.

Finally, place the card inside a splat box and splatter it with white paint for a snowy effect.  Finish by embellishing with  Crystal mix Color Essential Gems to add just the right amount of sparkle and festive bling.
