Snowy Christmas Card

                                        

This is an 8x8in easel card. I added white and blue card as a background. For the sides of my card I used the same technique as I do for my Memory Books. I die cut the elements using Marianne dies in white card and added yellow acetate to the windows.  I attached the layers on the "spines" on both sides. I added foam pads behind some of the layers. I covered the sides with strips of white that I had scored. The sentiment is cut using a Sue Wilson die and added on the top of my card along with snowflakes that I cut with a punch. I matt and layered the base of my card with yellow and white card. I die cut the elements for a personalised sentiment to be added at a later date with Spellbinders dies. I added some trees on the base cut with Marianne dies. I completed the scenery with Tonic Nuvo crystal glaze. Finally I added acetate over the scenery and added satin ribbon down the sides.
