Let it Snow Christmas Shaker Card Folio with Spellbinders All Is Calm Word Frame
Hello, Friends! I think you are going to love this Let it Snow Christmas Shaker Card Folio. It’s perfect for gift giving, quick and easy to make, and pretty enough to use as part of your holiday décor. Pretty papers from Prima’s Christmas in the Country provide the backdrop for a festive shaker element made with Spellbinders Amazing Paper Grace All is Calm Word Frame.
Adorn the 6 1/4″ square folio with some handmade poinsettia flowers, Christmas ribbon and holly leaves.
Here’s a close up of the shaker element. I love the way the sparkly sequins shimmer behind the lattice work frame. It’s just like looking at Christmas lights through a wintry window! This die set comes with two different sentiments. I die cut the Let it Snow sentiment from red metallic paper and regular cardstock. If you offset the sentiments slightly when you adhere them together, it creates a bit of a drop shadow effect.
Suspend some cute Christmas Charms from the spine.
A Peek Inside
I love to make projects that are part card, part mini album, and part gift! Create a little waterfall mechanism on the left to store photos of the season.
How about a Christmas Tea Party in a Box? You can fill yours with little treats and treasures that will bring joy to the recipient.
Use your scraps to dress up individually wrapped Ghiradelli Chocolates, honey dipper, cookies and honey packets. And you are never too grown up for a peppermint stick! The vellum envelope holds a holiday tea bag and a post card to write your personal greeting.
Decorate the flap pages, or leave room to add photos.
Maybe I’ll try to work up a Throwback Thursday tutorial so you can learn how to build the base. Then you can decorate it up with your own favorite papers. Would you like that?
