Cut List:
Cherry Cobbler 8-1/2 x 5-1/2 scored at 2-1/8 on each end, (card base), 3/4 x 5-1/2, scored at 5/8 on each end, (Bendy Piece), 3/8 x 3-1/2, scored at 1/2, 1, 2, 2-1/2, (Wobble), and four (4) at 1-1/2 x 2 (Door Panels).
Real Red Door Panels - Four (4) at 1-7/8 x 2-3/8, scrap for bows at about 1 x 2
Basic White two (2) at 5-1/4 x 1-7/8, 1 x 2-3/4, and 3 x 4
Old Olive scrap about 1-1/2 x 2-3/4, (leaf background), and 2 x 6-1/2,(wreaths)
Mossy Meadow 2-3/4 x 3-3/4,(large label), and 2 x 6-1/2, (wreaths).
Boughs of Holly DSP two (2) 5-1/4 x 1-7/8, 3-4 x 1-7/8
Die Cut two Mossy Meadow and Old Olive wreaths and two Real Red bows from Santa's Train dies. From the Holly Berry die set, cut the Basic White label, leaves background from Old Olive, and the large label piece from Mossy Meadow Cardstock.
Fold and burnish card base, Bendy Piece, and the Wobble will be in a Z fold.
Layer Real Red and Cherry Cobbler panels onto Cherry Cobbler card base to create door panels. Layer the two wreaths and adhere to the top door panels. Use a glue dot to attach the Real Red bow.
Use a strong adhesive to adhere only the ends of the Bendy Piece to the inside of the card just a bit higher than center. Adhere the Wobble to the middle of the bendy piece.
Adhere the Old Olive leaf background to the Mossy Meadow Label piece, and then adhere this to the Basic White piece and cut it out leaving a small white border around the outside. Set aside.
Using Glue dots, and two mini magnets stuck together, place a set on either side of the wobble. Add a glue dot the other side of the magnets, and close the card. This will transfer the magnets to the card flaps. You may now adhere the DSP to the flaps over the magnets.
Stamp "Christmas Wishes" in Cherry Cobbler ink onto the white label and adhere it onto the large label. Now add liquid glue to the top flat portion of the Wobble, and place the large label in the center. Add rhinestones. Stamp the leaf from Poinsettia Petals on the bottom left hand corner of the envelope in Mossy Meadow ink.
Adhere DSP strips to the white layers and adhere either inside the card underneath the Bendy Piece, or onto the card back. If you put it on the inside, you will have less room to write a personal message.
Use Glue dots to adhere the Large Basic Pearls for door knobs.
