Double Z fold Christmas card

Hi everyone, DT Henriëtte here today sharing a double Z fold card made with the new 

Christmas Cheer collection.

I found the inspiration and a tutorial for this special fold card on 

Kathy Clement's Youtube channel.

I made the cardbase from ivory cardstock and decorated all the panels with the

beautiful Christmas Cheer patterned papers.

On the center panel I made a pocket for a big tag. 

I will write my Christmas wishes on the tag.

I used the ephemera pieces from the collection to decorate the card but also 

two chipboard pieces. 

I embossed the chipboard with oatmeal embossing powder. 

On the chipboard Christmas tree I glued Fir tree seedlings.

The back of the Z fold card is also decorated with the cheerful papers.

I'm very pleased with the result.

This special card will be on it's way soon,  I hope it's recipient likes it too.

Thanks for visiting the Blue Fern Studios blog.

Hugs, Henriëtte.

Christmas in July Gift Tags - by Vicky Alberto

I am sharing a few "Christmas in July" gift tags made with Blue Fern's Homespun collection.  This was a fun challenge to use an unrelated collection and turn it into a few festive looking oversized gift tags.

On the first tag, I used "Barb's Medallion" chipboard, painted it white and topped it with diamond dust glass - for a chilly look.  I then added a round adhesive shape from the Homespun collection and surrounded it with Blue Fern blooms... again adding diamond dust to the white flowers. The white ribbon is also from Blue Fern.

On the second tag I used some gorgeous Blue Fern white lace, white flowers and a coordinating Homespun adhesive shape.  The red ribbon is also from Blue Fern... so I dug into my stash to find a few red blooms to complement the papers and the pretty ribbon, to add contrast to the fantastic white flowers and beautiful lace.

Thanks as always for stopping by to take a peek today!
