Gold and green speak Christmas. This card is even prettier than the picture. The Forever Gold Speciality paper is the secret to this stunning card.

Card Base: Cut Old Olive 8 ½ X 11 paper in half width wise. 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 gold foil paper 4 X 5 1/4

Card Front: Cut gold & green paper 3 7/8 X 5 ⅛

Attach card front to gold mat. Attach these to Old Olive card base.

Stamp Season’s Greetings in Old Olive ink on Whisper White paper. Cut this to 1 1/4 X 2/14.

Attach Stamped white piece to gold leaf rectangle. Attach this piece to card front.

That’s it; you have finished your card front. Wasn’t that easy? 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.
