Book Fold Fitting Florets Christmas Card
I made this card on a recent Facebook and it proved super popular. You can see the replay here.
I just love selecting some of the more unusual colour combinations for my Christmas card making, but in this case I didn’t need to worry. The Designer Series Paper did all the talking!
I chose to keep the card really simple, but jazzed it up a little by using one of the simplest fun fold designs around – The Book Fold!
The oval shapes are cut using the .fabulous Framed Florets Dies from the collection. I love the subtle detailing on the frame.
The sentiment is from the Framed and Festive Stamp Set and is packed full of Christmas sentiments which perfectly fit the coordinating frame dies
The ‘spine’ has had the royal treatment by adding both the Polished Pink Open Weave & Starry Sky Metallic Woven Ribbons.
They just to have been made for each other!
Book Fold Fitting Florets Christmas Card – Inside
The inside of the card has been kept really simple by using two of the smaller sentiments from the Framed and Festive Stamp Set. I adore how you can mix and match the sentiments to work for you.
