Tomorrow is the last day to sign up (or have an active subscription) for Paper Pumpkin so you want to receive the next kit, the November 2021 Love, Santa kit (see below for peeks and details). So I thought I’d share one more card idea that I created with my leftover elements from the October 2021 Peaceful Christmas Paper Pumpkin Kit.
If you are someone who loves to add photos to your Christmas cards AND you love to create your own holidays cards with paper crafting products, you’ll love this fold. It not only allows for a bit of creative space, but your photo is seen when the card is closed AND open.
Here is the card closed without a photo.
Here is the card closed with the idea of a photo added in.
And here it is open. Ooo…ahhh! Don’t you just love the trees?
Wondering where to sign it? My thoughts are within the area of the trees on the inside with a bright colorful (or white) gel pen. OR have a space on the back side to add your sentiments and signature/s.
Here are a couple other versions to show that you can coordinate your card supplies to colors you may have in your photo.
Extra products I used… See below for a complete list of extra products I used linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Measurements for one card…
- Basic Black Cardstock
- 4-1/4″ x 8″ scored parallel to the short side at 5-1/2″
- 2-5/8″ x 3-3/4″ (represents the photo)
- Colored Cardstock
- 2-7/8″ x 4″
- Ribbon
- 13″
- “Trees” kit card base
- Vertical 4″ x 5-1/2″ piece cut into three sections (see directions section)
- Kit label
- 1/2 label
Directions…
- Stamp the sentiment on the 1/2 label piece.
- Cut the “trees” card base into three sections so that the bottom and middles sections are 2-1/4″ tall and the top section is an inch tall. Keep them in order.
- Add the top section to the bottom of the front flap of the Basic Black card base. Tie on the ribbon.
- Add a section of vellum trees with a Glue Dot or two hidden under the ribbon area.
- Add the stamped 1/2 label piece.
- Adjust the ribbon if needed. Then open the card and add the middle section to the inside top most area of the Basic Black card base (above the score line). And add the bottom section just below the score line. Then add the colored cardstock below that.
- Add a photo (or the smaller black cardstock piece if you want an additional photo mat).
- And then close the card and add a couple rhinestones or jewels.
