Hello crafters. Today I have an inspirational video featuring more new Christmas products from Spellbinders. Christmas is my favorite holiday and making Christmas cards brings me immense joy. Today I have 5 card ideas for you, all created featuring one awesome die set from Spellbinders called Winter Welcome Sled. This die set is amazing! It is what the name suggests – a set of dies to make a sled, but it also includes several embellishments, such as a skate die, poinsettia dies and holiday greenery dies all designed to help you decorate your sled.

CARD DETAILS
Each of my 5 cards features a slightly different way to decorate a sled using both the dies included in the Sled die set as well as other dies from my stash.
I finished all 5 of my cards in the same way. I used the Knock on Wood 3D Embossing folder from Spellbinders and dry embossed a new gorgeous Indigo cardstock – this cardstock is so me, I love deep, dark, rich colors of cardstock, and this dark blue is simply amazing.
The sled die cut worked best on mini slimline card size, 3 1/4 x 6 1/4”. This gives room to house the sled and pretty script sentiment at the bottom along with a foiled sentiment, too.
I used the Mix & Match Holiday Greetings dies to make sentiments for my cards. I cut each sentiment from Gold Mirror cardstock and either black or white fun foam from Spellbinders to pop it up. I also always want to add a foiled sentiment to my card, so I foiled one for each card. In most cases, my foiling was done of the same Indigo cardstock, so the sentiment blended with the background.
Lastly, I used Fashion Dots in Gold from Spellbinders to decorate each of my cards.
Have fun crafting!
