This card really is made out of leftover pieces! I had a lot of strips with the trees and wanted to see what I could make with them.
I started by cutting 4" x 5 1/4" piece of white to use as a base. The green "speckled" dsp is all one piece so I added it to the middle of the white card stock. Then I added the tree strips to the top and bottom. Next came the trees in the middle. I wasn't satisfied with the look and I had narrow strips of Real Red card stock and decided to use them.
The card base was already on my table and I had cut off a portion of the right side. After measuring, I cut the dsp piece down to 3 1/4" x 5 1/4" and added it to the front flap.
The white card stock for inside was going to show when the card is closed, so I embossed a narrow design onto the right side.
Not too bad for being made with a bunch of leftover pieces.
A picture of what is still left but I am tossing them.
Thank you for coming by today.
