Instructions:

  1. Stamp the holly on white cardstock and color with light green and red pencils. Use the dark green pencil along the veins of the holly leaves. Cut to a 1 ½” square, then mat on red glimmer paper.
  2. Cut the green flourish paper slightly smaller than the card front, then glue in the center. Add a ¾”x4” strip of white Magic Mesh across the card front, then place the matted holly on top.
  3. Stamp “merry Christmas” on white cardstock, then mat on red glimmer paper. Glue beneath the holly.
  4. Punch two holes, approximately 1 ½” from the top of the card and about ½” apart, punching through the fold of the card. (You’ll see half-circles.) Thread with red ribbon and tie in a knot. Wrap gold metallic thread around the fold of the card and tie by the base of the knot in the red ribbon.
  5. For the card inside: Cut a 3”x6” strip of green flourish paper and glue inside the card front. Add a 1”x5” strip of white Magic Mesh. Stamp the ornament on white cardstock; color with red and green pencils. Cut to a 1 ¼” square and mat on red glimmer paper, then glue inside the card.
