Instructions:
- For the card front: Turn the card with the fold on the left. Cut a 5"x6½" white paper to use as a base. Cut ten 1"-1½" wide strips of the blue and white patterned papers, each 6" long. Cut a 7"x2" strip of dark blue canvas textured paper and punch a long edge with the multi-shaper. Repeat with a strip of the blue stars paper.
- Starting at the upper edge, glue the strips at an angle across the white paper, varying the patterns and overlapping the edges. Trim the constructed piece to 4¾"x6¼". Cut out the “glad tidings” paper ribbon art and mat on white paper with 1/32" borders. Mat again on dark blue canvas textured paper with 1/16" borders. Glue to the striped piece near the right edge as shown. Attach a silver mini Brad Buddy™ snowflake to each end, then glue the constructed front centered on the card.
- For the inside: Construct a 4½"x4½" piece with strips of patterned papers on a white paper base as for the front. Trim to 4" square and mat on dark blue cardstock. Glue to the inside. Cut out the “happy holidays” paper ribbon art and mat on lavender canvas textured paper. Glue across the constructed piece near the lower edge as shown. Cut out a snowflake circle art, leaving a 1/32" white border on it. Glue above the ribbon sentiment
