This card might look a little complicated to make, but is is much easier than it appears to get the papers rotating around. This is a great card to make if you have some favorite scraps of paper that you want to use and not throw away. You can choose any two coordinating papers, but it works best if one is a “dark” and one is a “light” for more contrast in the design.
The paper I chose is from the Most Wonderful Time Product Medley. This is one of the sets that is a “returning favorite” in the Mini Catalog. It was one of my favorites last year as the papers are just so beautiful with lots of gold accents. You can see the six 3″ x 3″ cards I made here: It’s the Most Wonderful Time…. and here: More Most Wonderful Time Cards and the two boxes that each fit all 6 cards & envelopes here: Mini Christmas Card Box.
But I also have lots of scrap pieces left over and this was the perfect way to use them. I chose two of the red patterns. You’ll notice that one of the pieces is directional….the one with the stripes. As you are adhering the pieces down, make sure that you keep all your stripes going in the same direction.
