A Very Merry Christmas Card
For the card front: Turn the card with the fold at the top and cover the front with Happy Days red textured paper. Cut out the Color Me™ “Christmas” card topper, then color the leaves with Green Tea and Spearmint Gelatos. (You don’t need to color them in solidly.) Color the banner with Lemon and “Christmas” and the border areas with Red Cherry.
Using a baby wipe, rub over the larger colored areas, trying to keep the medium within the lines and using clean sections of the wipe for different colors. For the narrow areas, blend with a cotton swab dipped in water. Wrap a 5½" ribbon across the lower right corner and glue the ends to the back. Glue the topper to the front, then tie a bow and glue as shown. Glue a blossom to the bow center.
For the inside: Cut 6½"x3" Happy Days red dotted paper and mat the long edges on cardstock with 1/8" borders. Cut out the Color Me™ “delivering smiles” and “unwrap the magic” labels. Color the center of the large label with Lemon and the border with Red Cherry. Rub the colors with a baby wipe, blending them where they meet
Punch a hole in each end of the label, then thread it onto a 7½" ribbon. Glue the label to the red paper, 1½" from the left edge. Wrap the ribbon ends to the back and glue, then glue the strip centered across the inside. Knot a 4" ribbon and glue to the label on the left end. Color the small label with Green Tea at the top and Spearmint at the bottom. Rub with a wipe, blending the colors where they meet. Foam tape the label as shown.
