Christmas Card - How To .x.

For those of you who like making cards instead of buying them , I thought I'd show you the one I made my boyfriend last year for Christmas .

I just took a black piece of A4 paper & folded it into 3 .
This is the front :
Where I just used paper to create Santa's belt & red jacket effect . Then I glued buttons down the front .

This is how the back looked like , I used a Snowflake pixellette to cover the snap buttons I used to open & close the card .

Like this :

The inside , I just pasted more pixellettes , made a Christmas tree out of old ice-cream sticks , stuck star buttons & made paper mistletoes .

The tree was easy to do . You can either buy the ready made coloured sticks or just paint the brown ones . Then cut them ( as shown in picture below ) & for the tree ornaments I used a puncher to make perfect coloured circles .

I made the mistletoe the same way , except the leaves I cut out from paper .

Good luck if your trying this (:
