Step by Step
1
Cut a piece of stripy paper (from the club download) to 12.5cm x 13cm. Cut a piece of hearts bunting paper slightly smaller, sand the edges of both and mat the smaller one into the centre. Stick to a white scalloped square card. Ink the edges of the card with gold dye ink.
2
Stick a strip of stripy paper (cut to a border strip) across the card towards the bottom. Add gold Glitterations borders to it. Cut a circle from stripy paper using the Xcut circle template and Xcut shape cutter on a glass cutting mat. Cut to a semi circle, sand the edges and stick to the right of the card.
3
Stick the journaling tags onto white card and cut out the frame of the red journaling block. Stick to white card again and cut around the outer edge leaving a border of white showing. Ink the edges in gold dye ink. Layer with Stick It! 3D squares to the stripy background.
4
Stick the remaining heart bunting paper to white card and cut out three hearts. Layer up with foam squares in the centre of the frame. Add iridescent stones to the central pink heart and at the corners and points on the sides of the frame.
5
Stick the round pink journaling block onto white card and cut out. Layer with foam squares onto the card where shown. Slightly overlapping the other frame and the stripy border. Add a glittery snowflake to it (from the Papermania Strictly Christmas Glitter Sentiments sheet) and ‘With Love at’ using gold outline sticker words and lettering. Stick a ‘Christmas’ tag along the bottom of the card with layers of foam squares.
6
Add adhesive stones where shown to the ‘Christmas’ tag, border stripe and the dotty background.
7
Mount the Strictly Christmas die cut topper onto red card and layer with 3D foam squares to the left of the card slightly under the round journaling block.
