CHERISH THE SEASON

 

CHERISH THE SEASON MERRY CHRISTMAS

DIRECTIONS:

     1.    Run two pieces (5 ½” x 4 ¼” and 3 ½” x 2 ¾”) of White cardstock through embossing machine with the Tasteful Textile embossing folder.  (It is a 3D folder so please use blue plate.) Set aside.

     2.  Run the Silver foil through the emboss machine with the two different size jingle bell dies.  (be careful if you would like to keep the tiny pieces of Holly leaves as they drop out easily.  I put tear and tape adhesive on the back immediately so that I do not lose the tiny pieces)

     3.  Die cut a couple of stems in the shaded spruce cardstock. Adhere these all to the smaller piece of embossed white cardstock with bells slightly overlapping.  Run a small piece of the gold thread through the tops of the bells and tie a knot. Set aside.

     4.  Using the Gray ribbon, tie a bow in the middle of the Shaded Spruce ribbon, looping in the gold thread of the jingle bells.

     5.   Adhere the smaller white piece of embossed cardstock to the Shaded Spruce cardstock (3 ¾” x 3”). Then adhere this to the larger piece of embossed white cardstock.

     6.   Place the Shaded Spruce ribbon across the top and adhere in the back.  Adhere this to the card front. 

     7.   Stamp the sentiment on the strip of white cardstock (3/4” x 3 ½”) in Shaded Spruce ink. Adhere this to the strip of Silver Foil (1” x 4 ¼”) and finally adhere this to the lower part of the card front.

     8.  Stamp jingle bells on the envelope to coordinate (optional).
