How to Make This Card

1. Layer the Cherry Cobbler Cardstock 3-7/8” x 4” behind the Gift Box piece 3-3/4” x 3-7/8”. There will be a small border all the way around. Add this to the top flap on the Cardbase.

2. Flag the bottom of the Basic Beige piece and add to the center of the Gift Box piece with adhesive only on the top half, so it doesn’t stick to the bottom of the card.

3. Stamp the Wreath in Old Olive Ink in the center of the Basic Beige Banner about 1” from the top.

4. Stamp the Greeting about 3/4" below the Wreath in Mossy Meadow Ink. I used Merry Christmas from Our Home to Yours.

5. Add the Holly Wreath with dimensionals over the stamped wreath.

6. Add the White Box to the top of the Wreath with a dimensional.

7. Tie a bow with 10” of Linen Thread and add to the center of the White Bow with a glue dot.

8. Cut the Red Stripe Banner to 1-3/8” x 4-1/4” (save the small strip for tomorrow card). Add the Cherry Cobbler Strip behind with about ½" showing.

9. Add the Red Stripe & Cherry Cobbler piece to the bottom flap of the card so the Cherry Cobbler cardstock is on top. Adhere the flap to the inside of the cardbase with adhesive only along the two sides. This will create a pocket.

6. Finishing Touches – Add 3-5 Red Embellishments to the wreath &/or the bottom piece. If needed you can cover up the existing hole in the Red Stripe Banner with a Red Embellishments.
