Hello Friends
Nothing like making Christmas cards when it is over 100 degrees outside! But it is fun to get started by celebrating Christmas in July! I thought I would honor the true meaning of Christmas with my first card of the season. I am using the Peace on Earth die and the Christmas Farmhouse Floral.
Designer Steps:
1. The base is a Center Step card in white. I found this great template with the measurements on it from the Ramblin Stamper Pat Tecza.
2. To cover the white card base I traced the center step and cut out the green plaid DP. I also cut a scallop square 3 1/8 x 3 1/8 in red DP. Cut a piece of white card stock 3 1/4 x 3 1/4. Cut the 2 side pieces in red DP 1 x 3 1/4. Using the Peace on Earth die cut out the words in gold. Cut out a strip of gold 1/8 x 5 3/8
3. On the green plaid DP glue down the white square and the strip of gold. The little scallop is trim I bought at a local scrapbook store
4. Glue the Peace on Earth to the scalloped red DP square. Place foam tape on the back of the square
5. Glue it to the white square on the card front
6. Glue the plaid piece to the white Center Step card base. Glue the red side panels to the card front. Cut some pine branches and pine cones using the Christmas Farmhouse Floral. Add those to the side panels and your card is complete
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Blessings and Take Care
