To create my card you will need:
Blackberry Bliss Cardstock – 2 pieces
1. 10 ½ inches x 4 ¼ inches
Score the long side at ½ inch, 1 ¾ inches, 3 ¾ inches, and 5 inches
2. 4 5/8 inches x 3 ½ inches
Score the longer side at ½ inch and 1 ¾ inches
Rainbow Glimmer Paper – 3 pieces
1. 4 x 3 ¼ inches
2. 4 x 1 ¾ inches
3. 4 x 3 ½ inches
Gold Specialty Paper
1. Cut out the Moroccan doorway - 4 x 3 ½ inches
2. Cut three of the three petal leaves - scrap
3. Cut out the Bethlehem star - scrap
Directions:
1. Stamp, color, and cut out your Magi. Set them aside.
2. Glue the Moroccan doorway cut to the front of the 4 x 3 ½ inch glimmer paper. Use scissors and your paper trimmer to trim the gold to fit the 3 ½ inch wide glimmer paper. Use your scissors to trim the top of the doorway and the glimmer paper, leaving a border the same width as the sides.
3. Glue the 4 x 3 ¼ inch glimmer paper ¼ inch down from the top edge of the unscored end of the 10 ½ inch piece of blackberry bliss.4. Burnish the score lines on the long piece. Glue the ½ inch scored tab to the back of the card.
5. Glue the 4 x 1 ¾ inch strip of Glimmer paper to the front of the folded box.
6. Glue the Moroccan doorway to the bottom edge of the smaller piece of Blackberry Bliss, placing the bottom of the doorway even with the bottom edge of the paper.
7. Glue the bottom edge of the smaller piece of blackberry bliss (with the doorway) to the front of the card, 3/8 inches up from the fold line.
8. Apply glue to the ½ inch flap on the smaller piece of blackberry bliss. Flatten the card and glue down the edge where it rests against the card when flattened.
9. Apply the Magi and the gold leaves. Stamp your sentiment – I used versamark ink on black cardstock with gold embossing powder.
I hope this was inspirational for you. Thanks for stopping by today.
