Season’s Greetings Mantle Card

By Katelyn Grosart

 

“Hey G45 Fans! Christmas will soon be here and creating for the Christmas Season has definitely been on my mind. This month, I’ve been busy playing with the Winter Wonderland collection and I ended up creating this fabulous Season’s Greetings Mantle Card which was inspired by one of my crafty friends. This card is perfect to add pictures and notes to send to loved ones. You’ll want to make sure to grab a cup of your favourite Christmas beverage and enjoy the photos and tutorial of my Season’s Greetings Mantle Card”.

 

 

Tip: Cut the saying border apart in order to get the Season’s Greetings Sentiment for the front of your card.

 

 

Tip: When decorating the next two pages of your mantle card, make sure that each side coordinates with each other.

 

 

Tip: Layer two sentiment borders together to create a fun saying at the bottom of the page.

 

 

 

Tip: Use the solid side of the Winter Wonderland Patterns & Solids Paper Pad to break up some of the patterned paper.

 

 

Tip: For both the left and right sides, use the ephemera cards as embellishments as well as writing surfaces for notes. To create the pocket, use one of the wider borders.
