This card was created while I was working out samples for this card for my Christmas card kits. I had all sorts of pieces I tried out and finally once the design was finalized I decided to make up cards with what I had sitting on my desk. For this card I trimmed the gift from sticker packaging I have hand on hand for a while. I cut it square (2 1/8") and added a white ribbon from top to bottom and an embossed flower for the bow. It was not too bad but the ribbon did not go with a lidded box and the embossed flower did not have enough detail for what I was looking for. I did add a silver flower outline between them and that was much better. I stamped my maroon card front with a distressed background stamp (SU - Worn) with red ink. I trimmed the triangle from a red paper with glittery swirls. The greeting was laser printed and I added texture with my pattern tracing wheel before trimming it to size and flagging the end. I glued the triangle leaving the top loose, added my greeting and then glued the top down. I added the gifts using 3D foam tape to finish off this card. I have another triangle of this glittery paper so I will probably make one more for my stash. I have not made cards for myself yet this month. Therese
