Adding a Personal Touch to Your Betterpressed Christmas Cards
Hey everyone, this is Martina from @fraupony and I am truly excited to be a guest on the Spellbinders Blog again. Today’s post will be focusing on the BetterPress Christmas Collection – A wonderful collection filled with so many different options for your Christmas cards.

Coloring With Olo Markers on X-press It Blending Card

These alcohol markers are truly fantastic and have very bright colors! I’m in love with them! I chose to use the Olo Markers to create a Christmas card. I realized a coloring different from my usual, using an embossing folder instead of a stamp. When using brand new colors (every type of color) for the first time, I always recommend you to create a color chart. This is really important because the real colors are often very different from the colors on the packaging.…

Emily Midgett from Sixth Street Sundries here with you today on the Spellbinders blog, and today I have some inspiration to share using a few products from the BetterPress Christmas Collection!
