Foiled Noel

 I saw this card using our current Melon Mambo & Granny Apple Green Foils.  I loved the card, but I had chosen not to purchase those specialty papers. So, I dug out some retired foils and created the card anyway.  It's a lovely use of the dies along with foils...of any kind that you might have!

Measurements:  

  • Real Red: 1/2 sheet
  • Basic White: 4" x 5 1/4"
  • Red & Green Foil (ret): 4" x 4 1/4" (detailed label); 3" square (pine boughs)
To Make This Card:

  • Dry emboss the White layer with Merry Melody Embossing Folder.
  • TIe 15" ribbon around this layer, having bow on the left side.
  • NOW, you can attach this layer to folded Real Red Card.
  • Die cut "detailed label" from Red Foil. Set aside.
  • Die cut 3 "pine boughs" from Green Foil.
  • Arrange "pine boughs" behind "label" using Mini Glue Dots. Attach to card front with Dimensionals.
  • Die cut "noel" from Silver Glitter Self Adhesive Specialty Paper.  Peel off backing and arrange onto "detailed label". (I would have never thought to even try this!)
  • Finish with scattered Tinsel Gems 4.
