Red to Green Transitional Backing Paper - LandscapeCompleted by Shelagh E Osborn Wright

This background was printed on 160gsm paper and tririmmed to cover a tentfold cardblank. It was mounted with DST. I then added a ribbon trim, left over from cup mini kit373913_123, across the card front using DST.

I then added a chipboard Santa topper from my craftbox with 3mm foam pads and a modern holly detail with 2mm foam.

I had previously coated the holly and berries and Santa's boots and belt with glossy accents. I also added glossy accents and glamour dust to Santa's hat trim, bobble and cuffs for some extra sparkle.

I completed the card with a gold decorative peel-off border all round and a gold "Merry Christmas" peel off wording with gold mini stars.

A simple and very effective card for Christmas.
