TIDINGS OF COMFORT AND JOY

This week I am featuring the Magic & Hope Stamp Set.  This stamp set is not part of a bundle, but it does coordinate with the Paper Tags dies.

Today's card can loosely be called a fun fold.  There are not any actual "fun folds", but since it doesn't have the standard front and back panels, it's a little different than the standard A2 card, so I'll call it a Fun Fold.

The front of the card is a shortened front which reveals a strip of designer series paper (DSP) that is technically on the inside of the card.  

The card is made with two different designs from the Season of Elegance Specialty DSP.  The gold foiling on this paper gives a very simple card a touch of elegance.

The stamped pine bough border around the front panel creates a pretty frame for the greeting.  The gold embossed "filigree" above and below the sentiment fits the Paper Tags die perfectly.

A slightly larger Stitched Paper Tags die of the same shape adds a nice border for the sentiment.  Gold Striped Mesh Ribbon and Gold Pearls finish off the card front by adding a little more sparkle and shine.

The sparkle and shine on the inside of the card comes from the beautiful Basic Beige Season of Elegance Specialty Paper that you see from the card front.  The pine bough border is also  partially mimicked on the inside.  The inside sentiment is from the Jolly Holly stamp set.
