Alex Syberia Designs- Christmas Cracker Die Set

3D Christmas Cracker Die Set by Alex Syberia Designs lets you create your own traditional six-sided festive crackers at home. A Christmas cracker is a classic holiday treat, traditionally filled with small surprises to bring joy to celebrations. Pair this die set with the Christmas Jokes Stamp Set (sold separately) to add a playful surprise inside each cracker – just like the traditional ones on your holiday table!

This versatile set includes everything you need – the base cracker die, two patterned dies for creating lace-like panels, a zigzag “crown” die to make a traditional paper crown, and a variety of small embellishment dies (star, tree, house, bird, snowflake, candy cane and more). These small dies can be used in multiple ways: as mini ornaments tucked inside the cracker as surprise gifts, to decorate the outside of your finished cracker, or as stand-alone embellishments for your papercraft projects.

Approximate sizes:
Finished cracker: 145 x 50 mm / 5.7" x 2" (six-sided)
Small decorative shapes: 30 x 15 mm / 1.2" x 0.6" and 20 x 15 mm / 0.8" x 0.6"
Crown zigzag die: 63 x 20 mm / 2.5" x 0.8"
Ornament dies: 62 x 19 mm / 2.4" x 0.75" and 15 x 67 mm / 0.6" x 2.6"

Quick Instructions:
- Die-cut the main cracker base twice.
- (Optional) Use the patterned dies to create decorative panels.
- Fold along the scored lines.
- Glue the two bases together using the glue tabs and assemble the six-sided cracker.
- Tie one end with ribbon.
- Add small embellishments, or tuck in candies, trinkets, or other tiny gifts inside.
- Stamp and insert a joke using the Christmas Jokes Stamp Set (sold separately).
- Tie the other end with ribbon to close.
- (Optional) Glue the small embellishments onto the outside to decorate the finished cracker.
- Create a paper crown: Fold a sheet of tissue paper to your desired height. Die-cut along the top edge using the zigzag crown die. Unfold and glue the ends together to form a crown.
- Have fun!
