Hello everyone! In this video, I have simple Christmas cards to share with the new Spellbinders Dancing Christmas collection. These are interactive cards where a part of the die-cut critter moves or dances.
I love these interactive dies from Spellbinders, and there are many different Dancing dies, there was just a Dancing Halloween collection released last month. I love interactive cards in general, but sometimes the interactivity component can be a little bit too complicated to build, and these interactive cards are very easy, it really doesn’t get any easier than this, you just need a foam square or foam circle to make this interactive element work.
VIDEO TUTORIAL
Watch the video below or on my Youtube channel.
There are 4 dies in this collection – the Dancing Penguin, is the smallest die set from this release, it’s an S3 die and the penguin looks like he is ice skating. He is just very handsome and absolutely adorable. You can easily fit 2 penguins on a portrait card or 3 if you make a landscape card or even more if you opt for a slimline card. Imagine a row of these darling penguins skating on your card.
There’s also a dancing mouse, and the mouse is pretty big, he is holding a giant gift with a big bow and he is walking, he is on his way to give the gift. You can have the mouse hold something else, he doesn’t have to hold the gift, he can hold a Christmas Tree, he can hold flowers, he can hold an envelope or a card, or nothing, he doesn’t have to hold something.
There’s also a set with the Pudding, which is utterly adorable, the pudding has arms and legs and the legs swing from side to side.
Finally, the last die set in this collection is a set with Gingerbread Boy and Girl and their bodies move from side to side.
I paired my Dancing Christmas characters with BettePress plates and hot foil stamping – I love the result!
