Christmas Card made with A Child is Born in a Center Pop Front Card

Hello and welcome to my blog! Today I want to share a beautiful and easy card made with the A Child is Born stamp set. This card has a focal point that pops forward. It is a very simple and easy to make card.

At the end of this post is a link for you to download a free tutorial with all the instructions and measurements and, also, a video showing the construction of this card. Check it out. Links to all the supplies I used are also at the bottom.

Here is the front of the card.

From this angle, you can see how the front section pops forward.

This is how the card base is folded. All the measurements and score lines are in the free tutorial.

This is the brace and mechanism that holds the front piece that pops forward.

The brace fits in the middle of the card front between the folds.

After the mechanism is adhered, the silver foil pieces are adhered to the sides, after embossing with the Peaceful Greenery embossing folder.

The front piece is adhered to front area of the mechanism. 

The sentiment was stamped in Secret Sea on a 2" x 5 1/4" piece of Smoky Slate and adhered to one of the back sections.

Christmas Card Imitating a Wrapped Present with Jolly Holly Embossing Folder

Hello and welcome to my blog! Today I want to share a beautiful and easy card made with the Jolly Holly Embossing Folder and the Traditions of Christmas Designer Series Paper. It is a very simple and easy to make card.

At the end of this post is a link for you to download a free tutorial with all the instructions and measurements and, also, a video showing the construction of this card. In the video I change the flowers and show several other options. Check it out. Links to all the supplies I used are also at the bottom.

Here is the front of the card. Cherry Cobbler is the 11" x 4 1/4" base. 

The Basic White piece was embossed with the Jolly Holly Embossing Folder after I brushed a glycerin and Wink of Stella mixture all over the Basic White piece. Hopefully, you can see a little shimmer on that piece.

Four 1/4" x 5 1/2" gold foil strips were adhered to the front to imitate ribbon when wrapping a present. The flowers were cut from the Traditions of Christmas Designer Series Paper. The gold spruce piece is a die from Christmas Greenery Dies.

The inside images are from the Joyful Tidings Stamp Set and stamped in Shaded Spruce and Cherry Cobbler.

I hope you will give this card a try. To download your free tutorial, just click on the box below.
