Stockings and Holly - Christmas Cards

Merry Christmas

This card was crafted using Maja Design's new holiday collection.  

Christmas Season collection has a matching monochrome collection, Shades of Christmas. 

These are the papers I used from the this gorgeous and unique collection.  

Holly Jolly

Ephemera

Advent

The Maja Design Monochrome papers are always a perfect match.  They are a great combination to enhance the collection.  

Maja Design is known for the amazing versatility of their papers.  While  this may be called "Christmas Season", I promise you won't be putting this paper collection away with your decorations once the holidays are over.  

The "B" sides of every sheet have designs that can be used through the year.  That makes Maja's papers a great value.

Peace and Hugs from the Pug - Spellbinders Twist Die

Spellbinders Twist-Cards from the Large Die of the Month Club 

This month, I had the opportunity to create with Spellbinders Large Die of the Month Club and this month it comes with a twist....literally.  
Introducing the twist die.

Spellbinders actually offers several exciting monthly clubs from which to choose including extra embellishments from the kits:

All Clubs from Spellbinders  * Large Die of the Month * Small Die of the Month

Shop past club dies * Spellbinders Card Kit Club * Card Club Kit Extras

Amazing Paper Grace (APG) - Die of the Month

I used a few of the "extras" from November's Card kit to finish the card.  The "PEACE" sentiment on the front of the card is from  Deer Santa Clear Stamp Set (card kit of the month extras).  

Let's talk about the Pug diecut shape.  This adorable guy is from the Deer Santa die cut shapes from November ( card kit of the month extras).  You can still grab these diecut shapes from the Spellbinders store while they are available.

NOTE :  the sentiment on the inside of the card, "from the Pug" was simply  printed on cardstock before using the circle die from the set.  

Here is a quick video showing just how cool this twist card design is.  

  In addition to the main twist-card die, the Spellbinders Large Die of the Month Club comes with some sweet smaller dies to create greens and floral decorations on your projects.

The paper used on this card is Authentique Nostalgia collection 12x12 paper pack - gorgeous classic Christmas colors and images.  

Authentique Nostalgia Seven (the gorgeous plaid)

Authentique Nostalgia Ten paper (the adorable dog bone paper)

Reindeer Cards - Adorable Reindeer Die from Spellbinders

Now is your opportunity to grab the November Card Kit from Spellbinders for a VERY limited time while supplies last. 
Spellbinders DEER Santa Card Kit

In November, Spellbinders Card Kit featured the most adorable Reindeer Die complete with sweet Santa hat.  The kit also came with darling embellishments, die cuts and more.   It sold out in a few days but Spellbinders was able to assemble a few more kits while supplies last. 

You still have time to grab the Deer Santa kit.

 Spellbinders Card Club Kit for the Holidays -Limited Offer

You can see the Current Card Club right here..  Complete with  die cuts, papers and  embellishments.  

Today I am featuring several cards made using the card kit.  These cards showcase the dies that are included in the Deer Santa kit :

 -  the adorable reindeer die which is the star of this month's kit

 - santa's hat dies

- darling leave and flower dies

A little more about the kit

Spellbinders really has assembled a great versatile kit.  It's doesn't have just one theme so you are not stuck on one theme all month long.  It's got cars, and feminine flowers, sea creatures and bold stripes.  Masculine or feminine - child or adult, they have thought of it all.   

Below is a photo of the contents of the  Spellbinders Card Club for Nov18.

If you need/want additional supplies, Spellbinders even sells card kit extras/add-ons including the stamp set, inspirational stickers, paper pad, etc.  

You can find information on the card club right here:  Spellbinders Card Club information

Spellbinders also offers previous card club kits 

based on availability.

Here are some pop-up cards made with the same card kit. 

Thanks for stopping here.

Spellbinders even invites you to share your creations with them on Instagram (#SpellbindersClubKits)
