Hello friends and happy Sunday! I have a new Christmas card to share featuring Christmas dies and Glimmer Hot Foil plates from Spellbinders. I made this card a while back, but haven’t had a chance to share it until now.
This is the 8th post from my impromptu “It’s a Christmas Season” mini-series here on my blog. See the 1st post here, 2nd one here, 3rd one here, 4ht post is here, 5th post is here, 6th post is here, 7th post is here.

CARD DETAILS
I love this type of layout and this type of project with a repeated die-cut pattern. I have shared a very similar card HERE. For this project, I went with different colors – two shades of green, silver to create a shadow layer, black for the background, and a hint of red.
What you probably can’t see easily on the card is the foiled background – I foiled the snowflake border using black foil on black cardstock for a tone on tone look. It is very subtle and adds a nice detail to otherwise a plain background panel.
The “Ho Ho Ho” die-cuts were adhered at an angle using foam adhesive to give this card some dimension. I also made little Santa hats using dies from Sunday Drive with Santa die set. They are the perfect size to go on top of the letters “H”. I also embellished this card with silver jewels.
This design doesn’t have a specific sentiment. Rather the die-cut background works as one giant sentiment on this card. I like it. Do you? Let me know in the comments below.

Adorable card! Fun idea to repeat the sentiment and I love the Santa hats!
thanks, Denise! I knew I needed to add something to this card, and the hats were just the perfect little accent 🙂
