Spellbinders October 2025 Stitching Die of the Month | Peppermint Prancer

This post features a handmade Christmas card using the Spellbinders October 2025 Stitching Die of the Month, Peppermint Prancer. I stitched a red-and-white peppermint candy, turned it into the “O” in JOY, and added a playful Rudolph reindeer sprawled across the peppermint. Stitched on a Cascade blue background, this card is bold, festive, and fun. Includes stitching tips, supply links, and additional inspiration from other October Club Kits.
