Painted Christmas Merry Christmas
The Painted Christmas paper pack is beautiful and offers a variety of sizes of prints for your Christmas cards.
Card Base: Cut Real Red 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 Evening Evergreen paper 4 X 5 1/4
Card Front: Cut print paper from the Painted Christmas paper pack 3 7/8 X 5 ⅛.
Attach card front to card mat. Attach these to the card base.
Die cut the longest label from the Seasonal Labels dies from Basic White and Real Red. Stamp Merry Christmas on white label with Real Red ink. Cut the Real Red label in half and attach each half on each side of the stamped white label. Add this double label to the lower edge of the card front.
Make a bow from linen thread and attach to the white label with a glue dot.
That’s it; you have finished your card front. For the inside of your card, cut a piece of Basic White 4 X 5 ¼. Stamp a sentiment or write a note before attaching this piece inside your card.
