He's Making a List - 3D Cards

Hello everyone. December is here, so it's full on Christmas projects. I love that we have two kits this month to choose from and I chose the fun 'He's Making A List kit', featuring the Carta Bella papers. For my first project, I have made a couple of 3D cards that will also sit well as  Christmas decoration on any mantle.

The cards are made the in the same way so I will show how I made the card below.

 Start off by cutting two pieces of white card-stock for the base.

Score both pieces at the following measurements below. Cut the larger piece as shown.

Rotate the small piece and fold as shown below.

Next I cut out the pieces from the paper in the kit. This collection is such a cheerful design and I really love these papers.

The patterned paper is cut slightly smaller than each panel because I always like a small border showing underneath. Once I cut my pieces, I distressed all the patterned papers edges just using my cutter bee scissors and adhered them to the base pieces.

Adhere the smaller piece to the larger one. I found it easier to attach the front piece first and then the third panels will line up to attach easily.

Finally I made up a double bow ribbon layering it with a gold thread and some red jingle bells, topped off with a poinsettia.

Here are the finished cards,really simple to make.

I hope you enjoyed this quick card tutorial.
Thank you and Happy Crafting.
