This adorable die is the Santa Claus version of the earlier Dancin' Deer Die Set I shared from Spellbinders. This die set is called Dancin' St Nick and how cute is he with his lil' swingin' legs?! Hard to capture the lovely shine on the red cardstock, so I've added extra pics. I used a gorgeous plaid Spellbinders embossing folder to create the texture on this card. I topped this with a panel of vellum cut with a squared corner die from an older Spellbinders die set and then mounted the cute St Nick on this. Building him from his swinging legs up. I've used some fun elements in his creation starting with the lovely shimmery red cardstock which I cut most of his elements from. I had to take some shots at an angle, so the cardstock would catch the light just right. The black elements I used a fabulous brushed metal black cardstock which has really lovely texture. To add even more texture and interest, I used Flowersoft in white, which gives his white trims a lovely fluffy finish. I used the same lovely diecut sentiment set as I did for the previous two creations. There are so many options in this set, it's brilliant and so easy with the lovely shadows which can be cut in any colour to back the sentiment.

SPELLBINDERS ~ DANCIN' ST NICK
Hello lovely crafty pals, you might say I'm on a roll with these posts for Spellbinders. This is my third post in three days, I know, most unlike me! But I really want to share these cute creations with you, so I'll try to post one each day for a few days. This adorable die is the Santa Claus version of the earlier Dancin' Deer Die Set I shared as my first post for Spellbinders. This die set is called Dancin' St Nick and how cute is he with his lil' swingin' legs?!
I used a gorgeous plaid Spellbinders embossing folder from my stash to create the texture on this card. I topped this with a panel of vellum cut with a fabulous squared corner die from an older Spellbinders die set from my stash and then mounted the cute St Nick on this. Building him from his swinging legs up. I've used some fun elements in his creation starting with the lovely shimmery red cardstock which I cut most of his elements from. It shows nicely in the shot below, I had to take it at an angle, so the cardstock would catch the light just right.
The black elements I used a fabulous brushed metal black cardstock for, so up close it has really lovely texture. To add even more texture and interest, I also used an old jar of Flowersoft in white, which gives his white trims a lovely fluffy finish. I used the same lovely diecut sentiment set as I did for the previous two posts. There are so many options in this set, it's brilliant and so easy with the lovely shadows which can be cut in any colour to back the sentiment. I used white again on this card, but used black on my Holiday Express card, which if you missed you can click here to see. I have a fun washi tape with script handwriting on it, which was perfect to add to the 'list' that St Nick is holding. His wee parcel is so cute and I cut the base from a lovely confetti paper from the Spellbinders Paper Pad called Christmas Traditions to give that a bit more interest. I used my Copic Markers to colour up his sweet face and give him rosy cheeks and a rosy nose. His beard I cut from textured white cardstock, but didn't add any shading to, as I really like how it looks, as is. His belt buckle is actually very shiny! His body is popped up higher than his legs, to ensure these jiggly legs can swing freely. Such a cute and fun creation, hard to put down!
Thanks for spreading positivity!
