Sketch Saturday - Christmas Cards

You can make two cards with this design! Cut two layers in half diagonally, rotate and then cut again diagonally. Use the pieces to make two cards; so fun!

 
 

Here’s the sketch I used. It’s from the weekly Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge.

 
 

Tips & Instructions

  • Card Base - 5-1/2 x 8-1/2, score at 4-1/4

  • Layer (if using) - 5-3/8 x 4-1/8, adhere to the card base.

  • Modern Christmas Designer Series Paper - (2 pieces) 4 x 5-1/4 If you want to use both sides of the same piece, you can flip the pieces and make only one card.

  • Lay the 2 pieces of Designer Series Paper on top of each other and cut both diagonally from point to point. Rotate and repeat, keeping everything lined up.

  • Adhere the top and bottom triangle in one pattern and the side triangles with the other pattern to either the layer or card base.

  • Create the focal piece

    • For the O holy night card Stamp the image on a 2-1/2 x 3 piece of Basic White in Black Memento Ink. Adhere to a 2-5/8 x 3-1/8 piece of Basic Black. Adhere together.

    • For the Merry Christmas card die cut the second from largest square in the Stylish Shapes Dies from a piece of Basic White. Die cut the largest square from a piece of Basic Black. Stamp the sentiment in Versamark Ink and heat emboss using Gold Embossing Powder. Adhere together

  • Adhere the focal piece to the card with Dimensionals.

  • Embellish as desired.

For this card I used the A Child Is Born Stamp Set and stamped in Black Memento Ink.

 
 

For this card, I embossed the sentiment and the inside tree in Gold Embossing Powder. The sentiments and images are from the Ornamental Christmas Stamp Set.
