Before we begin our Christmas Blog Hop Today, we wanted to debut our second set of JustRite Custom Dies - JB 08955 Nested Sentiment Dies -- Set of 10 dies that will give you endless design possibilites! (If you missed our first set of custom dies, please see the blog post below this one.)
Here is a card designed by Kellie Fortin using stamps from A Day in the Country cling, showing the tear drop corner element:
Sharon Harnist also used the tear drop single & corner elements to decorate a framed chipboard letter:
Kellie Fortin used the small double ended tear drop tag for her sentiment on this soft pastel Christmas Card Simple Blessings cling.
Sharon Harnist also used the small double-ended tear drop tag with our Simple Blessings church:
Sharon Harnist used the tear drop frame for the sentiment "sign" on top of her Sparky and Friends house:
We know you are going to love these new dies! Here's a view of both sets of dies that I've stored in a plastic CD case, so you can get a better perspective of all the dies:
Now on to our 9th week of Christmas Blog Hops!

My card for today's hop also uses JustRite's new Nested Sentiments Custom Die and measures 3" x 6":
I stamped a smallest Christmas Nested Frame in black, colored it with Copics and then die cut it with the tear drop frame Custom Die -- a perfect fit! Then I used the middle rectangle die from this set to die cut the sentiment and pop it up over the frame -- such a quick and easy beautiful look!
To enhance the tear drop element at the top of the frame, I used the solid tear drop die to die cut coordinating burgundy cardstock to place behind the die cut opening of the frame. Here's a photo that shows all of the elements die cut -- notice the signature Spellbinders embossed edges (click on photos for a larger view)!
And assembled:
