Instructions:
- For the card front: Turn the card with the fold on the left. Cut a 4¾"x6¼" rectangle from the lower right corner of the Christmas Corners foil paper. Cut a 4¾"x1½" Christmas Stripes foil paper and mat on lime linen paper with 1/16" borders. Glue across the corners paper, 1 3/8" from the upper edge. Glue the corners paper centered on the card.
- Cut a 2"x5" Red Tapestry foil paper and mat on lime linen with 1/16" borders. Paper piece the 4½" nutcracker using these papers: lime linen for the base, blue linen for the trousers, red linen for the jacket, black for the belt buckle and hat, white for the beard and hair, and flesh for the face and hands. Trim away all the excess then glue centered on the red foil. Glue to the card as shown. Place the “rejoice” Dazzles™ on the stripe, a star on each side of the nutcracker, and a crystal on his hat.
- For the inside: Cut a 4½"x4½" Red Tapestry foil paper and glue centered on the inside. Cut the “Happy Holidays” sentiment to 2¼"x2" and the “May your spirit…” sentiment to 2?"x2". Mat both on the green area of the Christmas Corners foil paper with 1/16" borders. Glue to the red foil, positioned as shown. Cut a 5" length of the Dazzles™ border and place across the upper edge of the red damask. Add three Dazzles™ holly clusters as shown.
