I am back again today with another train card using the Holiday Express die set from the new Tinsel Time release by Spellbinders. Today I want to show that the die set works really well for other occasions too.
This time I am using a full sized slim line card. I created the background with cardstock and the Color Block Slices die to create rays in the background. I filled the spaces in between the rays with a strip of 1/8 inch Scrappy Tape and then coated it with Iridescent Deco Foil.
Using partial die cutting, I extended the length of the train’s second car to be wide enough to hold a gift card. The gift card extends above the card so that it is easy for the recipient to pull out, but it still fits in a standard #10 envelope.
I completed the card with a sentiment from another Spellbinders die set which has the word and its shadow available. This sweet train is so much fun to put together and I look forward to doing some other variations.
