Country Christmas Collection Introduction with Annie Williams

Hi there, crafty friends, this is Annie Williams, and I’m so excited to introduce my new collection with Spellbinders called Country Christmas.  I love the magic of the holiday season and have always wanted to design a Christmas collection.  Country Christmas combines some of my favorite rural scenes and décor pieces with rustic holiday charm.  And if you picked up some of the items from my first collection, Country Road, then you will find many of the products work great with this collection too!

Country Christmas Collection Introduction with Annie Williams

There are seven products in this collection – five die sets, a BetterPress plate & die set, and a 3D embossing folder.  Each product was carefully designed to be versatile and to work with other items from the collection.  Many are useful well beyond the holiday season just by removing a few Christmas elements.  I hope you’ll be inspired to create all kinds of beautiful and cozy projects!

Christmas Rocking Chair Die Set

The Christmas Rocking Chair Die Set allows you to create a beautiful layered rocking chair with pillow, blanket, and teddy bear.  Add a pair of Santa boots and a Christmas tree in a galvanized bucket for that holiday feel, or leave them out and create a sweet baby card or everyday card.  Create a porch scene with outdoor décor as well!

Country Christmas Barn Die Set

The Country Christmas Barn Die Set includes all the dies you need to build a cute, oversized barn that fills the front of an A2-sized card or can be placed on an A7-sized card to add more scenic elements around it.  Decorate it for the holidays using the wreath, light strands, and pine trees or leave it plain to create projects during the rest of the year.  Slip a sentiment or Christmas tree into the open barn doors for something extra or keep them shut for a simpler look.

Christmas Horse-Drawn Wagon Die Set

The Christmas Horse-Drawn Wagon Die Set was inspired by the wagon rides and Christmas parade “floats” from the small towns around me.  Build the horse and hitch up his wagon to create an A7-sized card, or use the wagon alone on an A2-sized card.  Fill the wagon with the stack of packages included in the set, Christmas trees from the Country Christmas Barn Die Set, flowers for a pretty springtime card, or anything else you can think of!  The horse makes a perfect focal point on its own as well…add his neck wreath for holiday flair!

Barn Star Wreath Die Set

The Barn Star Wreath Die Set creates the perfect eye-catching backdrop for a beautiful holiday wreath.  With interchangeable inserts, you can create two completely different styles of barn stars, or leave the inserts out completely to create an oversized solid star.  Fold the star up on its score lines for a three-dimensional look or layer a contrasting color behind it for even more interest.  This set includes several accent pieces to create a holiday wreath such as berry sprigs, orange slices, pine cone, and a beautiful layered bow.  Add your own floral elements instead to keep creating year-round!

Country Snowman Die Set

The Country Snowman Die Set includes everything you need to make a cute winter scene with this pudgy and sweet snowman.  A cowboy hat and scarf make him decidedly country and he’s joined by some adorable friends – a curious bunny and sweet bird!  Add the bird feeder, welcome sign, and broom for more fun details.

Country Christmas Banner & Sentiments Press Plate & Die Set

The Country Christmas Banner & Sentiments Press Plate & Die Set has all of the sentiments you need to finish off your country Christmas creations!  Ten sweet greetings in a gorgeous script font can be foiled or letterpressed and then cut out with one of three different shapes of banners or signs.  Add grommets and ties using the included dies to attach the banner to your Country Christmas Barn or horse-drawn wagon!

Country Christmas 3D Embossing Folder

Lastly, the Country Christmas 3D Embossing Folder reminds me of a beautiful quilt pattern and can provide your projects with an intricate background or just an accent panel.  Among the weaving holly leaves are classic Christmas icons like wreaths, ornaments, stars, and trees.  The folder is 5.5” x 8.5”, so it’s possible to emboss the background of all of the popular sizes of cards.  Ink it before or after and use both the embossed and debossed sides of your cardstock for tons of possibilities.
