Here is another version of a Book Binder card using the detailed frame from the Christmas Classics Dies. This time I used the Soft Shimmer Specialty paper in Pretty Peacock for the frame, and embossed a sentiment in Silver. Neat, simple look! I love it!
Measurements: :
- Pretty Peacock: 1/2 sheet cut LENGTHWISE
- Lost Lagoon: 4" square, 1" x 4"
- Basic White: 2 1/2" square (sentiment), 4" square (inside)
- Soft Shimmer Specialty Paper (N) (AC): 4" square (Pretty Peacock)
To Make This Card:
- Fold Pretty Peacock card in half. Score the front flap 1 1/4" from fold. Crease well.
- Attach 1" Lost Lagoon piece to "binding".
- Tie ribbon into double loop bow leaving long tails.
- Add to "binding" by adhering "knot" of bow to center of 1" binding, and then wrapping and securing the "tails" of the bow to the wrong side of the "binding".
- Now, attach "binding" area to card with Tear n Tape.
- Adhere the other Lost Lagoon piece to other side of front.
- Next, die cut detailed "frame" from Soft Shimmer piece. Note: I tried adding an adhesive sheet to the back before cutting - like the adhesive-backed Glitter Paper, but it was just too hard to work with, so I die cut, and then added to card front with "Green Glue".
- Now, emboss the sentiment of your choice in Silver, and then cut out with center label die from the Christmas Classics die. Add to center of detailed die cut, so that the card opens from the top!
- FInish with scattered Tinsel Gems #3.
