Do you need a fun way to send your Christmas presents in the mail? Here is a card that proves you are not lying when you tell someone that their presents are in the mail. Here is a peek at the front and inside of the card. What do you think?
Stamps:
Wishing You Cheer
More Merry Messages
Merry & Bright Rub-Ons
Paper:
Cherry Cobbler A-2
Merry Moments DSP 1-3/4 x 5-1/2, Scraps
Whisper White 8 x 5
Ink:
Archival Basic Black
Technique:
Pop-Up Card
Accessories:
Gold Ribbon
Frosted Sequins
Scoring Tool
Fast Fuse
Adhesive
First, I scored and folded my Whisper White panel at 4".
I then lined the folded edge on the top of my trimmer and cut at:
1" cut down to 1-1/2
2" cut down to 1-1/2
3" cut down to 1-1/4
4" cut down to 1
Then turn the paper so the fold is on the left and:
at 1" score between 1 to 2
at 1-1/4" score between 2 to 3
at 1-1/2" score between 3 to 4
Fold the score lines and push the flaps inward. These are the presents. Measurements to decorate with patterned paper are:
Top Present: 1 x 2
Middle Present 1 x 2-1/2
Bottom Present 1 x 3
I then adhered this onto the inside of the Cherry Cobbler card base.
I then decorated the front of my card and stamped the inside.
The tutorial for this technique can be found HERE.

I really want to try this fold. I recently did the step fold and love how that came out. Now you are inspiring me to want to try this one. Gorgeous card.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Lisa. I thought it would be difficult, but it was quite easy. I plan to make several more of these for Christmas. Thanks for stopping by here.
DeleteWhat a fun card - I love the inside!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jeanette. I think it is a wonderful way to use up those small bits of DSP. I appreciate you stopping by here.
DeleteSuch a nice card to tuck away to send at the appropriate time!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Fonda. It definitely is. I have to make Christmas cards all year long. Glad to read that you are doing better. My condolences to you.
