Love & Joy Fancy Fold
Today I have another card made using the Merriest Trees Bundle. This time I followed Terri Gaines fun fold instructions (I have used this fold before & I love it). This card was actually one that we made during my November Classes and the ladies loved it. I cut my card base from Thick Basic White card and scored it according to the instructions. I embossed a panel of Basic White card using the Merry Melody 3D Embossing Folder and attached it to Shaded Spruce card before attaching it to the left hand front panel of the card base. I stamped four layers of the detailed tree image from the Merriest Trees stamp set onto Basic White card using Shaded Spruce ink. I stamped “love & joy” from the same stamp set below the tree using Shaded Spruce ink.
I cut Gold Foil card using the star die from the Merriest Trees Dies and attached it to the top of the tree. The stamped panel is attached to Shaded Spruce card and then the right hand side of the card front. You need to make sure you follow Terri’s instructions when adding adhesive so that the left hand panel slides under the right hand panel. I stamped one of each of the present images from the Merriest Trees stamp set onto Basic White card using Cherry Cobbler, Crushed Curry & Blueberry Bushell ink.
I also stamped one each of the bow images from the same stamp set using Cherry Cobbler & Crushed Curry ink. I layered the present images onto the lower left hand corner of Basic White card before stamping another greeting from the Merriest Trees stamp set using Shaded Spruce ink. The stamped panel is attached to Shaded Spruce card and then the centre of the inside of the card.
This is such a fun card to create and I think it looks great as a Christmas card, don’t you?
Bye for now,
Kris
