Spellbinders + FSJ has many hardworking team members whose smiling faces you don't get to see very often. For the Holiday Cheer Launch Party, we brought a few of them into the spotlight to share their favorite holiday products with you. The video segment is below, but first let's take a look at a few of the projects made with the Staff Picks - I bet you'll see some of your own favorite stamps and dies, and you might just find some new favorites too!
Gnome for the Holidays
Antonietta is our Product Manager and she chose the ever-popular Gnome for the Holidays stamp set and coordinating die set. Just like Ant, we love their shaggy beards and mustaches! Each of the gnomes has such personality and they are fun to add to holiday and winter projects.
Die D-Lites Turkey
Bobbie works in supply chain at Spellbinders and she has the sweetest idea for Thanksgiving place cards using the Die D-Lites Turkey. Bobbie plans to work ahead and make these darling cards for each of her dinner guests. Then, come Thanksgiving morning, she'll add names to the cards and set her festive table setting. Bobbie is right that these cards will be festive and fun for the kids as well as the adults at her table! We just love this guy's spunky attitude and colorful feathers.
Gingerbread Boy
Sisters Sam and Pricilla both work in customer support and they are ready for some serious holiday crafting and baking with these adorable Gingerbread Boy treat boxes. They started with the kraft pre-madeSnack Boxes and fancied them up with Holiday Cheer prints, plus the Gingerbread Boy die and assorted twine, bells, and clothespins. These sweet sisters are excited to bake with their kids and fill boxes of goodies for Christmas treats!
