Snowy Wonder

 A fun fold card for the last card using the wonderful Snowy Wonder stamps and dies and the fabulous coordinating Snowy Scenes pattern papers. The fold is a simple Gatton the outside.

Decorating with the pretty papers is so easy! The main image is from one of the papers too! The ribbon acts as way t keep the card closed as well as being pretty.

The fun continues on the inside with the snowman and penguin popping out to say hello. The pop out mechanism is very simple.  Take a piece of cardstock measuring 7.5cm x 3cm. Score at 1.5cm, 3cm, 4.5cm and 6cm. Then cut into 2 strips each measuring 1 5cm x 7.5cm. 
Now fold the strips into 2 cubes. Adhere them on on each side to the inside panel of the card. Then add adhesive to the outer side of the card base. You now have 2 plinths for you characters to be adhered to that will fold flat when closed and pop out when open.

The sentiments for this card come from another gorgeous Christmas set called Reindeer Fun

Whilst making this card I had the joy of my grandson's company. He's always been fascinated by the tools I use to make cards especially die cutting and stamping. 
Here he is proudly showing his first Christmas card.

He had to decorate the inside because as nanny say's no surface goes undecorated 😉
