A Birdie Christmas Border

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas after the heavy rains last night! Jean Okimoto here, with another holiday card this afternoon. The lights have been flickering – so let’s get started before anything happens…

Dry-emboss Script Merry on Parchment Cardstock and trim it to 3-3/4” x 3-5/8”.

Cut Frosted Spruce Tree from Lime Fizz Silk Cardstock. Leave the cardstock in the die and dry-emboss it for extra dimension.

Cut the star from gold mirror cardstock. Attach adhesive label paper to red felt and diecut Resting Birds and a 1” x 3-5/8” strip. The paper backing stabilizes the felt and prevents any liquid adhesives from seeping through.

Attach everything to a side-folded A-2 card – and coordinate it with a matching Parchment Envelope.

I love simple designs like this. Let the textures and combination of dry-embossing, mirror cardstock, felt and silk cardstock do the work for you!

Impress is having their annual Holiday Kick-Off on Saturday August 16th. There'll be goodie bags for the first 25 customers at both stores, make and takes and a special 10% off everything discount that day. Be there!

Thanks for stopping by again – have a great evening.
