Send Holiday Cheer with a Handmade Card!
We have an awesome card and tutorial from Einat Kessler today using St. Nicholas! This card also beautifully uses Petaloo International flowers. Enjoy learning how to make this gorgeous card - let's take a closer look!
"This is a fast, affordable and easy card with a striking effect. I love making folded cards especially for special events like Christmas. Even though I don’t celebrate Christmas (I’m Jewish) I still have a lot of fun making beautiful cards for all my friends who do celebrate it. " ~Einat
Tip #1: I recommend using liquid glue when you need to attach little pieces on panels and you need the margins around it to be even. The glue takes time to dry and that will give you a chance to move the piece to its place.
Tip #2: Take apart flower collections and rearrange them as you want according to what fits your project.
Supply List
Papers: 12x12 St. Nicholas: Patterns & Solids, 8x8 St. Nicholas: Bells and Bows, St. Nicholas, Season’s Greetings
Flowers: Petaloo

I really want to try this tri-fold design! I've finished my Christmas cards, but I think I'll do this as home decor piece - wouldn't it look wonderful on the mantle or window sill?

Trifold awesome. And to win the reward package.
