Amazing Paper Grace Love Hope Joy

I have another White and Gold Christmas card to share with you today featuring the stunning Amazing Paper Grace November 2021 Die of the Month – Pop Up 3D Vignette Christmas Tree. This die set has everything you need for a very elegant Christmas card and I have added a Christmas themed embossed background using the Amazing Paper Grace Holly Flourish Embossing Folder and an elegant frame from the Amazing Paper Grace Deco Bloom die. This card came together very quickly.

Dies were provided by Amazing Paper Grace for today’s creations.

My Project

I have made a 5″ x 7″ side folding card base out of white cardstock. I cut a piece of white cardstock 4 3/4″ x 6 3/4″ and embossed it with the Amazing Paper Grace Holly Flourish Embossing Folder before adding it to the frame of the card. I then made a frame using the Amazing Paper Grace Deco Bloom Die out of white and gold cardstock. I die cut two outline frames in white cardstock to get more of a ‘stained glass” effect and to complete the frame I have inlaid the decorative elements in the frame with white cardstock.

I die cut the tree and presents out of white and gold cardstock using the Amazing Paper Grace November 2021 Die of the Month – Pop Up 3D Vignette Christmas Tree. The tree and presents had their embellishments added and was then added to the front of the card inside the frame.

To finish I added the sentiment from the Amazing Paper Grace November 2021 Die of the Month – Pop Up 3D Vignette Christmas Tree in white backed with gold to go across the tree as shown.
