Instructions: Card size: 5 3/4 x 6". Start with an 8 1/2 by 11" sheet of cream shimmer card stock for the base (even though the card measures 6" across you can use this size card stock as the front is narrower) score at 6" and then glue a piece of decorative paper 5 x 5 1/2" to a panel of gold 5 x 5 5/8" to the front leaving 1/8 border around the top, folded edge and bottom. Then place the plain edge die from Classic Borders on the cut edge of the front to die cut and make a decorative front to the card. Cut a piece of gold with the fancy Delicate Border and glue to the back of the front curved edge to match curves. Cut another piece of decorative paper 2 3/4 X 5 1/2" and die cut the left side with the plain Classic die (keep the piece you cut off for the back of the front to make the edge look nice while card is open). Glue the decorative paper to a gold panel 5 3/4 X 5 5/8" and cut another gold decorative border from the Delicate Borders to cover the paper's cut edge (plain curves against the gold) embellish "seam" with cream pearls. Finish the inside with the large sentiment from the Noel Sentiments, stamping with VersaMark on cream shimmer and embossing with gold fine line powder. Round the edges with a punch and glue to gold panel.
Back to the front: Die cut Ornament base from cream card stock, inside ornate ornament from gold card stock, Festive Holiday die from gold card stock and Decorative Oval die from gold card stock. Stamp using Tuxedo Black Memento (if using Alcohol Markers to color), the Holy Family, 2 pinecones and the Silent Night Scroll, die cut each with coordinating dies and color. Pinecones are: YG07, YG63, YG67, E53, E33, E35, E37. Scroll is: E42, E43, E44, Y32, E50, E51, E33, R24, candle on scroll: E50, E51, E53, Y32, YR23, YG07, YG63. Holy Family: clothing-E42, E43, E44, YG61, G82, B21, B91, B93, R11, R21, R22, manger-E53, E33, E35, E37, Sheep-BC20, C07, E93, Donkey-C01, C03, C05, C07, E93, E51, Cow-E50, E51, E93, E53, E33, E35, straw-Y32, YR23, chickens-chicks Y15, YR23, hen-R22, E53, E33, YR27.
Glue the gold Decorative Oval onto card front close to right side but not overlapping gold edge. Glue Festive Holiday die cut to card front on left side of Decorative Oval at an angle so that Festive Holiday hangs out over folded edge. Pop up scroll onto (make sure CANDLE is vertical, not the scroll) and over the bottom portion of Festive Holiday die cut. Pop up cream base of Ornament onto card front making the middle rounded part of ornament match the rounded part of the Delicate Border (it will partly cover the scroll). Glue inside intricate ornament onto base and then the Holy Family. Add cream pearls to centers of snowflake designs and larger ones top and bottom. Pop up pinecones at the top of the ornament then add a small gold wired bow to the top of ornament over the pinecones.
