 Cutting Guide:

PhotoPlay Tulla & Norbert’s Christmas Party 12 x 12 Paper Pack:

2 card mats from the “gift” paper cut to 4” x 5 ¼”

1 card mat from the Christmas Tree paper cut to 5” x 8”, score at 3 ¼” (valley), 4” (mountain), and 4 ¾” (valley)

1 Cut apart that measures 3” x 4” – pink background with car and gifts

1 strip of Candy Cane paper cut to 1 ½” x 4 ¼”

 

Brutus Monroe 100 lb Cardstock – Jurassic

Card base – 5 ½” x 8 ½”. Score at 4 ¼” for a US A2 Card base

Card mat cut to 3 ¼” x 4 ¼”

 

Brutus Monroe 110 lb Cardstock – Scarlet

Card mat cut to 3 ¾” x 4 ¾”

3 Strips cut to 1” x 3”

 

Neenah Solar White 110 lb Cardstock

Card mat cut to 3 ½” x 4 ½”

Inside card mat cut to 3” x 4 ¾”

 

Directions:

1. Adhere the gift card mats that are cut to 4” x 5 ¼” on each side of the INSIDE of the card base.

 

 

2. Center and adhere the 5” x 8” piece to the inside of the card base. The center fold should protrude from the middle of the card base.

 

 

 

3. Adhere the 1 ½” x 4 ¼” candy cane strip to the center of the card base front.

 

 

4. Adhere the card front as follows: cut apart to the 3 ¼” x 4 ¼” green card mat to the white 3 ½” x 4 ½” card mat to the red 3 ¾” x 4 ¾” card mat to the center of the card front.

 

 

5. Now, back to the inside of the card. Find stickers to decorate the three 1” x 3” red strips. I used three of the sentiment stickers and other small Christmas motifs.

6. Adhere the first strip ¼” from the top and aligned with the leftmost score line of the 5” x 8” card mat.

7. Adhere the second strip ¼” from the bottom and aligned with the leftmost score line of the 5” x 8” card.

8. Adhere the third in the middle and aligned to the rightmost score line of the 5” x 8” card.

 

 

9. Adhere the white card panel centered on the right inside panel centered between the rightmost score line and the right edge of the 5” x 8” card mat.

I hope you enjoyed this card. I enjoyed the different colors…you don’t typically think of pink for Christmas…but I like pink any time of the year.
