  Light & Peace &much more for a beautiful Christmas Card.

I used mostly retired products to make this beautiful Christmas card. Many other products in your stash can easily be substituted for the products I used.  See below for the dimensions and products.

Recipe:
  • The base of Garden Green cardstock is 11 x 4 1/4, scored at 5 1/2.
  • The layer of Gold Foil is 5 3/8 x 4 1/8.
  • The layer of Cherry Cobbler is 5 1/4 x 4.
  • The Very Vanilla layer is 5 x 3 7/8.
  • The next Gold Foil layer is 5 x 3 3/4 and is cut out with a Basketweave 3D Coverplate by Gina K.  I added it to the card front with Tombow Liquid Glue.
  • The next Garden Green layer is 4 3/4 x 2 and the end is punched with the Triple Banner Punch, (retired).
  • The 4 5/8 x 1 7/8 Very Vanilla is embossed with the Merry Melody folder, and the bottom is also punched with the Triple Banner Punch.  This combination is added to the card with liquid glue.
  • The two branches are from the Seasons of Green & Gold DSP and cut out with the Golden Greenery Dies.
  • The words from Light & Peace are stamped with Versamark on Cherry Cobbler and heat embossed with white embossing powder.  It is cut out with an Everyday Details Die.  I popped this piece up with dimensionals.
  • I made a bow with some Cherry Cobbler & Gold ribbon and added it with a couple of glue dots.
  • To finish I added red jewels. 
  • All done and remember to decorate your envelope.
