Reindeer Days Jingle Bell Christmas card |
|
T he Reindeer Days paper pack has a wonderful variety of prints for your holiday crafting. I choose the jingle bell print for this card, but it could be made with any of the prints in the paper pack.
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 Basic Black paper 4 X 5 ¼.
Card Front: Cut Basic White 3 ¾ X 5. Emboss white card front with the Forever Plaid 3D embossing folder. Cut red & white jingle bell print from Reindeer Days paper pack 2 X 5. Attach the jingle bell print paper ½ from the bottom of the embossed Basic White card front. Attach the white card front to the black card mat. Attach card front/card mat to the Real Red card base.
Use the Spotlight on Nature dies to cut a 2 ¾ circle of Real Red and a 2 ¼ circle from Basic White.
Stamp sentiment from Sweetest Star stamp set with Real Red ink on the white die cut circle. Use Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back center of the stamped white circle and attach to the red circle. Attach Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the outside edge of the Real Red circle.
Attach both circles over the jingle print paper on the card front. Add 3 silver Drusy Adhesive-Backed embellishments to the card front.
Card Insert: For the inside of your card, cut a piece of Basic White 4 X 5 ¼. Cut a piece of print paper used on the front of your card ½ X 4 5 ¼. Attach to the top of the card insert. Stamp a sentiment from Sweetest Star with Real Red ink before attaching this piece inside your card.
