Friday Die Day

Hello friends

Not long now to the big festive day!
This week I've chosen to use Snowman.
He is from the 2018 Spellbinders Holiday Collection 
along with  Reindeer and Santa - all back in stock!
Six dies in the set with approximate measurements of:

Snowman: 1.80 x 1.25 in 4.57 x 3.18 cm
Face: 1.65 x 1.45 in 4.19 x 3.68 cm
Scarf: 1.70 x 0.85 in 4.32 x 2.16 cm
Holly: 0.95 x 0.95 in 2.41 x 2.41 cm
Nose: 0.55 x 0.30 in 1.40 x 0.76 cm
Eyes: 0.30 x 0.30 in 0.76 x 0.76 cm

I've used a mix of white, black, red and orange cardstock to cut the pieces.
You'll notice the face gives the impression of where you place the 
eyes and nose - very handy.


I've glued them in place and used a pen to draw in the mouth.


Coloured the holly with distress ink, attached the berries 
and placed on his hat.


My card is going to be kraft with ivory and red square mats 
and a strip of patterned paper.


The finished card with the Snowman attached with 3D Foam Squares
onto an oval die cut.
I also added a typed sentiment and another sprig of holly and berries.


He looks quite friendly and festive!

Are we all dashing around this weekend to get through those lists?
I'm heading up to Milton Keynes on Sunday to see my friends
so that will be a day of fun and relaxing, now Saturday is a different story!

Take care friends.

  3. Hi Christine
    Such a cute little snowman and lovely card.
    Have a good weekend with your friends. I’ll be house hunting for my son in Coventry/Leamington this weekend, but should be finishing my last minute shopping. I always seem to have a last minute panic, however organised I try to be each year.
    Have a good day
    Chris xx
