ABC's of Christmas Card making continued... # for Evergreen Elegance

E is for Evergreen Elegance

This fancy fold card is called a bridge card.  I used the Evergreen Elegance Bundle, Majestic Mountain Dies, and Giving Gifts Dies to create this fun-fold Christmas Card.

Measurements:

  • The base card is 4 1/4" x 8", scored at 1 1/4" and 2 1/2" on each side.
  • From the Peaceful Place Specialty Designer Series Paper, cut from the small tree patterned paper into four strips 1 1/8" x 4" and glue onto each narrow panel.  From the DSP panel that has silver trees along each of the opposite sides, cut a piece that is 2 3/4 x 4 1/8" for the center panel.  
  • Die-cut three Pine trees from Majestic Mountains Die Set, and adhere them; one in the center panel, and the two others in the outermost panels.  Be sure to keep the tree placed so that they are within the far-left and far-right margins. 
  • To create the bridge, cut 1 1/4" X 5 1/2" piece of Window Sheet, 3/4" x 5 1/2" Evening Evergreen,  and another piece of Evening Evergreen that is 5 1/2" wide, to punch the tree line across one side using the Evergreen Border Punch.  
  • Use Versamark Ink and Silver Embossing Powder to stamp the sentiment, Merry Christmas and two silver stars.   Add the stars to the top of the left and right trees.
  • From a 2" x 3" piece of silver foil, die-cut the Santa and reindeer tag outline.  Trim the tag to fit along the edges, just leaving enough to place diagonally across the center panel over the center tree.
  • Adhere the punched tree line to line up with the top of the window sheet and then add the sentiment strip across the bottom of the window strip. 
  • Finish off the card with a Basic White panel on the back of the center panel.  Option to stamp the sentiment from the Evergreen Elegance stamp set, leaving room for personalized note and signature.
