Today, I’m Getting Creative with Wax Seals using the Holiday Magic Wax Seals collection from Spellbinders. I use the wax seals in a few different waysas embellishments on Holiday cards! Ad
Visual Supply list below.
Before creating any cards, was seals were created using the Was seal starter kit with the Frames wax seals as well as the Snowflake, Star and For You mini wax seals in Silver wax.
Foiled backgrounds were created for two of the cards using the Glimmer system with Prism foil on Hammermill cardstock. The snowfall shimmer press plate was used for one of the backgrounds and the Falling stars press plate was used for the second one. A Solid hot foil plate was used to foil the remaining foil to used as matts for the cards.
The first 3 cards were created for the finished mini wax seals. The first one uses the snowflake background. It was trimmed and lightly ink blended with distress ink before adding to the card base. The main focal point is a snowflake sticker with the snowflake wax seal added on top. The card is finished off with a foiled sentiment from the Merry Messages press plate & die set.
The second card uses the star foiled background. It was embossed with the coordinating wishing stars embossing folder before trimming down and lightly ink blending with distress inks. The star die cuts are created with the Essential stars die set using matte silver cardstock as well as white glitter cardstock. The sentiment added is a foiled sentiment from the Little smiles pressplate & die set.
The third card uses printed paper from the Merry Moments 6″ paper pad for the background. The florals were die cut from the Christmas foliage die set. Splatter was added to the background using the Sparkle splatter effects. The card is finished of with a silver heat embossed sentiment from the Merry messages press plate & die set. This set is used for the sentiments for the rest of the cards as well.
The fourth card uses the Was seal frames with die cut printed papers inside. The card background is created with the Branches embossing folder. The embossing folder was inked with Pine Needles distress ink put on the embossing folder before embossing Fern cardstock to bring out the colour of the branches from the background.
The last two cards were created with the Postage Stamps Embossing folder & die set. The tree element on one card was die cut from the Christmas Rocking chair die set and the Gnome & Musherooms were die cut from the Harvest time die set. The printed papers used are from the Merry Moments 6″ paper pad.
