Jeanne Bobish : Spellbinders Seasonal Label Motifs Collection

This post features the new Holiday Labels Motif from the Seasonal Label Motifs Collection from Spellbinders. I loved this set when I first saw it. I love lanterns and that is what really caught my eye. I have two different examples to share with you today and as always, the products used are listed at the end of this post.

I used this set to create two Christmas Cards. The first one on the left, I started with an A2 card base to which I added some green cardstock as a mat and then embossed a piece of white cardstock using the Radian Burst Embossing Folder. I wanted it to appear as though the light was shining from the lantern. I then applied two different distress inks using foam daubers to give the rays some color. The lantern was then cut from brushed gold cardstock and the candle was cut out and inserted in to lantern, They were then attached to the front of the card in the center of the burst on the embossing folder. I then cut a red poinsettia and some green holly leaves and berries from the Christmas Blooms die set and attached them as shown. The sentiment was done using the GOM-APR20 Celebrate the Day Glimmer Plates using Viridian Green foil. It was cut out and framed with the same green cardstock that was used for the mat and the holly leaves. It and the poinsettia were popped up using foam squares. As a final touch, I placed an enamel dot in the center of my poinsettia. Here is the finished card.

The second card is my favorite of the two. Again, I started out with an A2 base card to which I attached some black paper with shiny gold and mat silver/gray dots scattered on the paper. For this card I used the label and cut it from Solid black, soft yellow, and gray cardstock to match the grey dots on the background paper. It was attached to the front of the card as shown.

I then cut the lantern from Mirror Gold cardstock and placed some vellum behind the lantern to look like frosted glass. I then glued the candle in place and attached all to the label on the front of the card. I love bows and needed one for the top of my lantern, so I used the mini bow die and cut one from red cardstock. It was then attached to the top of the lantern on the front of the card.

I created three poinsettias using the dies that were included in the set and placed them across the bottom portion of the label. Then I used some gold foil and the Holiday Sentiments 2 Glimmer plates and created the sentiment which was foiled onto white cardstock and popped up on the front of the card using foam squares. As a final touch I added a small Fashion Gold embellishment to the center of the bow. Here is the finished card.

I love how pretty, colorful and festive this second card is. I hope you like them both and feel inspired to create some of your own. Please use my Spellbinders Affiliate link or any of the product links below to purchase any items you so desire. I would really appreciate it!
