T his is a great card design to use those paper scraps as small as 1” X 3”. I love that corner stamped sentiment, it adds an interesting touch to the card.
Project Recipe
Card Base: Cut Mossy Meadow 8 ½ X 11 paper in half widthwise. You now have two pieces 8 ½ X 5 ½ . Fold one of the pieces in half lengthwise for your card front. The card front now measures 4 ¼ X 5 ½.
Card Mat: Cut Whisper White paper 4 X 5 ¼. Stamp corner sentiment with Real Red Ink
Use the largest stitched Triangle to cut the Christmas Tree base from Mossy Meadow. Scallop the bottom of the tree with the scallop die in the Peony Dies.
Cut strips 1” X 3” of green prints from the Heartwarming Hugs paper pack. Cut 1” X 3” strips of Mossy Meadow paper. Scallop one end of these strips with the scallop die in the Peony Dies. Attach strips to the Triangle tree base, alternating print strips with solid strips. Once you have strips to the top of the card base. Turn card base over and trim strips using the triangle shape as a cutting guide.
Cut a strip of Early Espresso paper ½” X 1”. Attach strip to back of scallop print Christmas tree.
Emboss the stamped card front with Dainty Diamonds embossing folder. Attach the stamped and embossed card front to card base.
Attach the scallop Christmas tree to the card front. Place the tree low enough on the card front, so you have enough room to add a Star Designer Element star at the top of the tree. Add 3 red rhinestones to the card front.
That’s it; you have finished your card front. For the inside of your card, cut a piece of Whisper White 4 X 5 ¼. Stamp a sentiment or write a note before attaching this piece inside your card.
