Project by Teresa Welch
For the card front: Turn the card with the fold at the top and cover the front with suede paper. Cut out the Color Me™ holly corners card topper and use the pens to color it. The berries are DR2, shaded with DR6 and the leaves are JG1, shaded with JG 5 (see how to shade in the designer’s tip, above.) The center area is CT3, with a red DR4 frame, surrounded by a gray GG5 line. Foam tape the topper centered on the front.
Cut out the Color Me™ “good tidings…” label and use DR4 and CT3 to color the frames. Cut two 4¼" ribbons. With each, make a 1¼" loop, then fold the tail up behind the loop. Secure each loop and tail with tape, then use tape to secure one behind each end of the label. Foam tape the label centered on the topper.
For the inside: Cut 6½"x2" suede paper and glue to the inside, 1" from the fold. Cut one 6½"x¼" and one 6½"x 1/8" hammered silver paper and glue both to the suede as shown. Cut out the Color Me™ “wishing you peace…” label and use DR4 and CT3 to color the frames. Make two more ribbon loops & tails as in step 2 and secure one behind each end of the label. Glue the label centered on the suede paper.
