Instructions: Card Base: Cut a piece of 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" red pattern paper from Snowy Pines Paper Collection and adhere it on the same sized card base. Cut another piece of 4" x 5 1/4" green and yellow pattern paper from the same collection and adhere it on the previous layer.

Die cut 3 pieces of white cardstock using the smallest die from Ornate Ovals Die and cut them into half. Cut a strip of 1 1/4" x 5 1/2" green pattern paper from the same collection and adhere the die cuts as shown to create a decorative strip.
