Welcome to the Spellbinders April 2020 Clubs Inspiration Blog Hop!
Many of the April 2020 Club Kit dies and glimmer plates work with the original Truckin' Through the Seasons Die Set and I am here for it! You definitely don't have to have the Truckin' Through the Seasons Dies and can easily use the dies and glimmer plates from this month's release on their own or with other Spellbinders products.
Today I'm sharing two Christmas Cards featuring the April 2020 Glimmer of the Month Club Kit, Celebrate the Day and dies from the April 2020 Small Die of the Month Club Kit, Special Celebrations. Additionally I used a sentiment from the newly released Even More Sentiments Set, the original Truckin' Through The Seasons Set, and an Essential Glimmer Rectangles glimmer plate.
Let's get started!
V I D E O T U T O R I A L
Watch the creation of these two Truckin' Through the Seasons Christmas cards, from start to finish below or click HERE to watch in HD:
Both card backgrounds, trucks, and design are the same. I used different embellishments and greetings for variety.
The backgrounds were created by stenciling the Honey Bee Stamps Snowfall Stencil on FSJ River Rock Cardstock with white pigment ink. The Simon Says Stamp You Are Background Stamp was stamped over the stenciled background with white pigment ink.
Both cards feature foiling an Essential Glimmer Rectangles glimmer plate over the stamped and stenciled background with Red Glimmer Foil.
One card was foiled with "Merry Christmas" and one with "Season's Greetings" from the April 2020 Glimmer of the Month Club Kit, Celebrate the Day using Red Glimmer Foil.
The trucks, presents, and tree from the Truckin' Through the Seasons Die Set, ornament and tailgate from the April 2020 Small Die of the Month Club Kit, and tailgate from the Even More Sentiments Set were die cut from FSJ Cranberry Cardstock, Fresh Forest Cardstock, Sparkle Trio Cardstock, Silver Mirror Cardstock, and black and white Pearled Basics Cardstock. The images were assembled and adhered to the backgrounds as shown.
Greetings from the Simon Says Stamp Tiny Words Christmas Stamp Set were stamped on smooth white cardstock with black ink, trimmed into thin strips, and adhered to the card with foam adhesive as shown.

Hi Nichol, I'm always so inspired by the art you share with us. I have the trucking through the seasons die and also receive the spellbinders kit and caboodle club kits. Love these kits. You add such great detail to your cards, and your cards have so much interest and usually tell a story. I love that about your cards.
