October Advanced Card Class I

Today I'm sharing the first card we made at Advanced Cards - it is a Christmas card with a surprise inside. We used the Festival of Trees stamp set and Tree Punch. I saw a very similar card on Pinterest and used it as my inspiration.

The beautiful "Season's Greetings" verse is from Watercolor Winter Too. The All is Calm Designer series paper with coordinating colors of Lost Lagoon and Soft Sky are just beautiful together.

And inside - voila - a pop-up of a forest of trees to wish you a Merry Christmas. You can see how the pop-up is folded below.

And here is is from the front.

Finally a close-up to see the dimension on the trees, the dots and glitter on the snow.

It really turned out pretty - the perfect card to send to someone special in your life. Would love to hear from you about what you think. ~Maureen

August Christmas Card 2

Okay - I still LOVE the new Holiday mini catalog. Here is the 2nd card we made at our August Christmas Card stamp camp. It uses the New Festival of Trees stamp set and the New Tree Punch ( you can get these two items together in a bundle and SAVE 15%.) Check out the Holiday catalog HERE.

This card started out as a CASE of a card I saw featuring three trees with one of them punched from the Dazzling Diamonds glimmer paper and the heart added. I really liked it, but when I went to find it again - no luck. So I came up with the rest myself - all I could remember were those trees.
