Twelve Days of Christmas Card & Tag
“We need two pieces with 5” x 8 ½” of a designed paper and one piece with 5 ⅛” x 8 ⅝” of a cream cardstock. Distress the edges of the designed papers and add them to both sides of the cream cardstock.
Trim any wood pattern paper with 4 ¾” x 6” and tear the top edge as shown, this piece will be a pocket.
Add the fussy cuts to the pocket ( make it by layers).
Make a large tag (8”). Use an Ivory Large tag, but if you do not have it, you may do it with a piece of cream cardstock. You have to trim the large tag.
We will insert the large tag into the pocket, but, before we need to do another step.
Make a card of 4’ x 6” (folded) and add the pieces as shown.
Add this card to the tag.
Finally, insert the tag into the pocket. This is my version of a card, a beautiful detail for special friends and also, they have the opportunity to add some photos and save it as a nice memory.
I did another option with the same collection. Let’s make your own version and have fun.” ~Carla
