Take 8.5” x 11” sheet of DSP and score at 4.25” short side

and 5.5” on long side.

Choose which side you want for main card, turn over to fold top left side to score line, then bottom left side measure 2.75” and fold it inward, and bottom right side at the 1.5” mark and fold.  

Now take bottom of DSP and fold upward on score line in half, then fold left side over to the right and you have the basic card.

Place adhesive on bottom edge of inside of card and adhere all pieces down so they don’t flap around. This makes the pockets.

Now punch 2 holes in side of card where you folded it on an angle and use brads to hold together.

       

Use the scallop border and corner trimmer to decorate the 2 whisper white pieces of card stock, place these on the Real Red and Garden Green pieces you cut out.  Choose which color goes in which pocket and cut 2 slits one at top right and one at bottom left, using gift card as template into the tag to hold gift card.

Punch hole in top of card after you stamp the white pieces and fold ribbon in half and stick through hole and bring back through loop for a pull handle.  Use your own finishing touches!  ALL DONE!

Stamp the Bells & Boughs stamps on any of the panels with the greeting (A Merry Christmas) for the front of card. On this piece, punch two small holes approx ½” apart where you want your ribbon and place ribbon in from front of card and bring back through opposite holes to form bow.  Cut to fit.  Put this on front of card with Dimensionals.  Adhere all others to each panel inside and decorate them.  This card will now stand up like a Screen Panel!
