I offered this beautiful Christmas card at my September, 2021 Creative Therapy Card classes.  I used the new Silver Foil Specialty paper, and the words from Time of Giving.  

Recipe:
  • The base is an 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 piece of Misty Moonlight, scored at 4 1/4.

  • The Basic Gray layer is 5 x 3 3/4.
  • The 3 3/4 x 3 3/4 piece of Silver Foil Specialty paper is embossed with the Evergreen Forest folder, and I used a sanding block to make the foiled trees look tarnished. (Sanding blocks are available on Amazon, and anywhere nail supplies are sold.) Do I sound like a commercial, or what!!!!
  • The 3 3/4 x 1 1/8 piece of Peaceful Place DSP is adhered to the card front with Tombow liquid glue.
  • After adhering the embossed foil and DSP to the Basic Gray, and the Gray Granite layer, I wrapped the twine from Flowers for Every Season ribbon bundle around these pieces 3 times.  I used a separate piece of twine, slipped it under the 3 wrapped pieces and made a bow.
  • The words are stamped with Night of Navy ink on a 3 3/4 x 5/8 piece of Peaceful Place DSP popped up with dimensionals.    
  • All done!! Remember to decorate your envelope.
