✩ Shop the NEW Simon's Snowglobes Collection at several retailers HERE: ldli.co/e/nqe2014 ✩ FULL SUPPLY LIST: ldli.co/e/lmxzyeo Hi friends! I am SO EXCITED to finally share this Christmas Collection "Simon's Snowglobes" with you. It is such an amazing buildable and versatile set of dies that allows you so many possibilites when creating Christmas cards! Even if you don't get the collection, I hope the tips about storage, pre-cutting in trays, and inking die cuts helps you! It makes creating and assembling die sets like this so easy. Hugs! - Simon

[@nancyw3711]

I made the snow globe and it turned out super cute! Thank you for the step-by-step tutorial. You're awesome Simon!

[@teriferron3452]

Simon - you really knocked these snow globes out of the park. Beautiful

[@kellieklupfel1612]

How many other crafters started singing “Do You Want to Build a Snowman”? Ha Ha.

[@lauracarrasco3196]

Another Homerun for Simon Hurley!!! Great ideas and beautiful card samples!

[@susanjohnson318]

1) I love the dies are automatically detached -- no snipping required. 2) I so appreciate that they are not clued to the cardboard. I like to keep the cardboard insert for design ideas, info, etc. and end up gluing down a piece of paper on the residual adhesive. 3) I have seen similar Nativity scenes but I LOVE the extra straw pieces to put on the framework! Inspired!

[@kocobee]

This comment said all the things I was going to say! =)

[@melissaklepser1166]

Good Morning from Alaska

[@yosoykibbles]

That nativity scene card was stunning! 🎉🎉

[@Gloria_Davis]

I love snow globes but I am excited to use these for many many future projects outside of the globes.

[@suzetten8858]

Hi Simon, Everyone from PEI Canada

[@LisaVornhagen]

I really love those snow globes! It's too hard to pick a favorite. Each one of them are beautiful!

[@leenalahti7882]

Good evening from Finland 🇫🇮🍁❄️

[@kristinekerr3688]

Hello from The States👋

[@franciscosilva9287]

Lies Finland is not real

[@carolhenryscheevel5432]

Each snow globe is so cute! I think the deer and birch trees is my favorite, but I'll probably change my mind in about 5 minutes. Great job Simon!

[@TCreates3601]

Oh my goodness! How do you choose a favorite! I love them all. I love how you can make everything "come to life" and show tips to bump up the WOW factor. Thanks Simon!

[@upstairshobbyroom]

great and very versatile set...an all year round set for scenes

[@kblack861]

Hi Simon! First of all, I love snow globes, and I love the different die themes to go along with the globe...genius! I'm intrigued by your wood panel background stamp, it is so realistic! It's on my wishlist along with the must have snow globe. All of your creations are beautiful, thank you for demonstrating your products so thoroughly!

[@darlenegreen1089]

Good evening, Simon. I've always been very partial to snowman. Especially living here in Florida. We need all the help we can get....Well, you've finally managed to blow us all away again LOL. I had decided a week ago, to make snow globes for Christmas. And here you are, and I can't wait to get started on some of them. Well done!

[@toniaspille0214]

Love the Nativity scene

[@annhenke8169]

Hello everyone. Can't wait for this one. Looks amazing

[@CarrieRhoades]

This is a great collection. I was thrilled to be able to share it on my channel as well. I wanted to let you know it is such a fun collection to mix and match. Enjoying it so much. Happy Stamping!

[@CupcakeRach27]

Love your Snow Globe collection Simon. Your cards are stunning too. Thanks for bringing us great creativity and inspiration.

[@susancasiano8081]

well, I was on a no buy but I keep looking at these cards. I adore these snow globes. Gonna have to get them.

[@Bryant4vr]

Simon, These are very nice. Love all the ideas for making the Globes are using alone for your cards. You truly are an inspiration for me. Late in the game with card making. Nice hobby since I have retired.

[@ebriggs3498]

I already have a snowglobe die set, but I bet I could fit your insert into it! If not, I will make them fit. Love the Nativity! Thank you. All the designers seem to forget what Christmas is ACTUALY all about. ❤

[@candyberry68371]

I ordered all the sets yesterday when I saw them online. Can’t wait to get them. Awkward die cutting always brings a smile to me. Keep bringing amazing ideas!

[@XenobiaF]

I thought you might get through a video without an awkward die cutting, if you had, I’d’ve been disappointed! I would not have thought to use an end of an embossing tool to make berries-great idea!

[@lisaames6388]

Good tip on the shading to create a rounded look, it really does make a difference! I got the whole bundle, can't wait to create!

[@joycewilson540]

Oh my goodness Simon! I love them all but the Woodland one may be my favorite! Your set you created is just beautiful! I love your products and you!

[@CynthiaSprando]

Snow globes are wonderful and I love all the choices you have been making them. All the ideas you give us for shading and layering are great! Keep creating! Love to see what you think of next!

[@barbiejobonnett7473]

Just when I had decided I didn't need any more Christmas dies! What wonderful detailed die sets, great as snow globes or stand alones. Congrats on all your collections.

[@pamr.5954]

I am not sure I could choose! They are all so fun! Just beautiful cards. Cannot wait for the folders!

[@lynda1037]

Snowglobe dreams! Wow! can't choose a favourite.

[@jenniferrezentes5497]

Aloha Simon, I love all your snow globes, I will be purchasing all 4 sets, I also love the glimmer sentiments, it's convenient to foil and cut them all at the same time. Mahalo for your creations. 🌴🌈🌺

[@ValleyOakPaper]

What a cute collection! Pretty sure those deer want to come live with me. 😻

[@carolynshiery3055]

Simon, you knocked it out of the park with this collection. Beautifully designed and I love your makes.

[@sayerc455]

I love snow globe cards, I used my explore 3 and design space to create some cute snow globe cards yesterday.

[@deborahmougeotte3563]

Simon, GREAT addition to your collection. Love your designs and how you put them together. You are a true inspiration. Fantastic job!❤

[@janetchambers-ely5449]

Thank you, Simon, for inspiring me to get started making cards!!

[@maryvrancik931]

Beautiful sets. Thank you Simon

[@jeannewagner8133]

A fantastic collection, Simon! I am so excited you have this partnership with Spellbinders. With your imagination and their quality, it's a total win-win. I don't think anyone else has done these multiple scenes in snow globes at least to this extent. Very excellent!

[@plannertimewithmichael]

These are all gorgeous!! Love them all!

[@tthappyrock368]

What beautiful card ideas! I love all of them!

[@ChrystalsChreationsWycoff]

Love all of these snowglobe dies and your Cards too. So beautiful.. I am going to get the Village snowglobe one for sure..

[@MindyFarmer-wd2zl]

Thank you for a fabulous collection, Simon! I will definitely be purchasing these! I'm so excited to start creating my Christmas cards now. Keep up the great work. You are such an inspiration! ☺

[@kerritareta2701]

As soon as I saw the Woodland scenes set, I knew I had to have it! Now that you've shown the snowman set, I realize how cute it is as well!!! My daughter watched your video with me and was blown away with your inking technique, foiling and new embossing plate! Oh we'll be busy making Simon's Snowglobes for a while lol! Can't wait for my order to arrive!

[@kristyberry6829]

Love your new collection. The last one you did with the deer... You should have put the deer behind the tree. It would have given it a more a 3 D look. You anchored the tree in the foreground and the deer in the background. It looked kind of awkward. But, I love your products and your lessons on DIY! You are so talented for being so young!!

[@laurabush9812]

Love the woodland set!

[@robinbecker9222]

Great designs for snow globes

[@annamarianenortas4859]

Gorgeous collection!!

[@HappyMom2010learning]

WOW, Simon 👏🏽 This collection is AMAZING 🎉 I love everything on it 😍

[@suzetten8858]

Love the large sentiments

[@grammabarb7869]

I ordered all of them from my local scrapbook store and can’t wait for them to be delivered.

[@pattidavis2996]

Beautiful collection!❤

[@tracybalicki4906]

I think I love your nativity card the most but they are all awesome

[@kathypatterson4630]

Very nice, Simon!

[@starbrown1219]

Wow. These are so great. The last one really looked like designed metal.

[@renshaw5darlene1519]

I really love that snow globe 🥰

[@barbarahill6365]

Another great video and release!

[@deebryars6782]

Beautiful cards

[@kristinevencel2898]

I purchased your bundle as i thought it is such a versatile set. Will be teaching a class using the set in a shaker card and a tunnel card. It should be fun!

[@suzetten8858]

Love the card Simon

[@ann-christinaolsson7210]

So amazing🌲🌲🌲

[@debrabessette2699]

Beautiful cards Simon!

[@janwarren3665]

Hi Simon Your Snow Globes are absolutely gorgeous! Really tough to choose a favorite! Thank You for sharing this awesome video! Happy Holidays! 🎄

[@tylevis98]

Love your snowglobes!!!! The name is awesome too! :) The detail in these tiny scenes is incredible!! Wat to knock it out of the ballpark! Really looking forward to seeing the embossing folders!! Thanks for the sneak peek Simon!!

[@pattimercer9357]

You are incredibly talented Simon, as a designer and creator! I wondered about the woodland scene with the blue ink coming up from the bottom…… wowza!!! It looked like dusk! Beautiful!😊

[@jaylenelobese4257]

Omg they are all great cards . I wish I could get them all.

[@bean2sara]

Awesome die set so much fun. Tfs ❤

[@jeanninelabiuk1492]

I Can’t Wait for Your Embossing Folders! 🙃

[@fratjock28]

I just purchased the snow globe die set and snowman scene. Cannot wait for the sets to arrive.

[@09mclemens]

What a great collection. I loved all of your cards, but am especially excited to for the nativitysceneoption. I''m a little late to the party. I just purchased all of these gorgeous snow globe scenes and the two embossing folders. Not sure how I missed the two hot foil sentiment sets. Those are definitely going on my wishlist, along with the beautiful woodgrain background. I picked up lots of tips and tricks in this video. Thank you.

[@sam08330]

Fantastic sets….

[@Teresa-Q]

Simmon these are all gorgeous. What amazing sets. Thanks for all of your tips and ideas. Lovin these snow gloves. Can’t wait to see what else you create with them. A shaker would be so beautiful too. You are such an inspiration and so talented 💙💙💙

[@lorirobinson7357]

I was just thinking the same thing about shaker cards with these. And all those tiny letters you cut out, if not found an inlay card, can be used as part of the shaker bits.

[@dontmesswithuechigirl]

The wood grain red rubber stamp would be great on the bottom of the snow globe

[@juliefarrington5353]

Hi Simon. I am in Australia and love your videos. I have learnt so much. Thank you from Julie

[@kathrynewalker5024]

Love the lunar paste
