Cardmaking for Beginners | Patterned Paper Cards with Spellbinders December Club Kit Extras

This post is also available in English

Hello friends and Merry Christmas! With this post, following the example of my post from last month, I decided to start a new series called “Cardmaking for Beginners” featuring entry level, very easy to make cards for those new in cardmaking. I hope you’ll find these posts useful!

Today I have a few patterned paper cards to share all made using Spellbinders December Club Kit Extras. I used Winter Wishes extras from December card kit to make all of the cards I’m posting today. This month extras include: Gold Glitter Alphabet Stickers, Winter Wishes Mason Jar Stamp Set and Winter Wishes 6×6 Paper Pad.

All of these products are made in China, they are not premium quality, but they do make nice cards. They also make for a great gift for someone who’s new to cardmaking (perhaps you have a friend who’d like their hand at making handmade cards but doesn’t know where to start – these goodies would surely help someone dip their toes in cardmaking).

CARD DETAILS:

• Create A2 (4 1/4 x 5 1/2″) side folding card base using white cardstock.
• Cut diagonal stripe patterned paper to 3 3/4 x 5″. Adhere onto the card.
• Cut snowflake paper to 3 1/4 x 4 1/2 “, mat with glitter paper, adhere onto the card.

I made glitter paper I’m using for these cards by using glitter washi tape from December kit. I adhered strips of tape onto cardstock to create my own glitter paper.

• Die-cut Hemstitch Circle out of “deer” paper. Foam mount onto the card.
• Die-cut several branches out of glitter paper, adhere onto the card forming a wreath.
• Tie twine into a bow, adhere onto the card.
• Add 2019 using gold glitter stickers. Alternatively, you can spell something.
