Running out of Christmas card ideas? Here's a slightly more advanced layout idea for you. These cards go together quickly once you have the little square pieces removed from the Split Card Texture Die shown.
Here's a helpful hint for you. Use a lint tape roller to remove the pieces from the back side of the Designer Series Paper after you have removed the paper from die. Just lightly touch the tacky tape to the cut pieces and they will stick easily to the roller. By using a tape roller, you save yourself some time from having to pick up or vacuum up all those little pieces. I highly recommend one!
Don't forget to make your envelope flap coordinate with your card!
You can be extra clever by cutting your Boughs of Holly Designer Series Paper rectangular piece a little larger, so when you tear it on the diagonal, you'll have two pieces for two cards that way. Use your paper trimmer to fine tune the fit to the die cut layer.
Using the gold trim, I just wrapped it in a circular fashion and scotch taped it to the back of
the punched and stamped tag, then raised the unit up on dimensionals.
If you have some scraps of the Designer Paper, tear a piece for a little pop
of color on the inner layer corner.
Here's all the Supplies used to create this card and you can order
