Blue Rose and Dove Christmas Full Card Easel KitCompleted by Heather Beechey

Printed onto 190gsm smooth card, then cut out all the elements. I also printed an extra sheet of the roses and doves.

I assembled the box first, cutting, scoring and folding the lines and using d/s tape to attach the folded in edges. I used the extra sheet of roses and doves to add a layer of decoupage to the box lid.

I then assembled the card using 2mm foam dots to attach the decoupage layers, added the insert using d/s tape and then assembled the easel by folding along the marked lines, then attaching the Merry Christmas tag with 2mm foam dots towards the front of the base to hold the card in place. I also added a piece of ribbon to each of the gift tags and backed the bookmark with another piece of card for added strength.

It all fits neatly in the box and

this design makes a stunning keepsake card that anyone would be delighted to receive.
