There are only 60 days until Christmas! Are you ready? I've already begun my Christmas card crafting and today I'm sharing a Christmas Ornaments Card I created using some fabulous supplies from Spellbinders and Scrapbook.com.
Christmas ornaments have always held a special place in my heart. Since I was a born, I've collected a new ornament every year to add to the Christmas tree. And yes, I have quite the collection now! With this in mind, I was immediately drawn to the gorgeous Gilded Ornaments Die by Spellbinders.
To create this card, I began by die cutting several circles from white cardstock using the circle die included in this set.
Next, I added some ink to the ornaments to give them a bit of color and to bring out the embossed details. You could also do this embossing technique with colored cardstock for a bolder design.
The background on this card was created using the Spellbinders Circles and Diamonds Embossing Folder. I also inked the edges of this to again bring out some of the embossed details.
Embossing with dies has now become one of my favorite new techniques thanks to the amazing Spellbinders Platinum 6 Embossing and Die Cutting machine.
Christmas Ornaments Card | Embossing with Spellbinders Dies
Christmas ornaments have always held a special place in my heart. Since I was a born, I've collected a new ornament every year to add to the Christmas tree. And yes, I have quite the collection now! With this in mind, I was immediately drawn to the gorgeous Gilded Ornaments Die by Spellbinders.
I knew I wanted to do something different with the dies, so I decided to try embossing. Following the instructions on the machine I layered the various plates to emboss with dies. To ensure proper alignment, I placed the dies in the center of the white die cut circles and used temporary adhesive to hold them in place.
I then ran everything through the Platinum 6 and out popped these gorgeous embossed circles.
The background on this card was created using the Spellbinders Circles and Diamonds Embossing Folder. I also inked the edges of this to again bring out some of the embossed details.
Before adding the ornaments to the card front, I added the ornament hanger which I die cut from gold foiled cardstock. The final touch was some gold cord for "hanging" them and a fun little bow.
Spellbinders and Scrapbook.com were kind enough to send me a Platinum 6, Tool N One and a couple of dies to create with and I recently shared a Halloween Witch Card I created using the Witch On A Broom Die. I want to thank Spellbinders and Scrapbook.com for this fun opportunity and for introducing me to my new favorite manual die cutting machine!
