I created this “Missing Middle” Christmas card after being inspired by a lovely card swap I received at Founder’s Circle. I call it a “missing middle” card because if you look closely, you’ll see that indeed the middle of the card it….missing!
So before I give you the dimensions for the card I need to share with you that the stamp set I used is the Peaceful Pines stamp set which coordinates with the Perfect Pines Framelits which is on sale for only $20.25 through Monday, November 16th. Yippee, I love a sale!
Okay, so now to make the card, cut your card stock 4 1/4″ x 11″ and score at
5 1/2″ and run it through the Boughs and Berries Embossing Folder. Now open the card up and cut the card at 7 1/2″ cutting through the front of the card. With the remaining piece of the front, cut 2″ from the bottom edge and throw out the 1 1/2″ piece that was in the middle (or save it for some other project). Close the card and lay the lower piece in place lining up with the lower edge of the inside of the card. Attach the embossed piece of Cherry Cobbler to the card front with Dimensionals (this put the card back together without the middle.)
Then I stamped and used the Big Shot to die cut the trees and the “merry” and added a star button from the Home for Christmas Designer Buttons.
For the inside of the card I stuck with the Perfect Pines stamp set and just made sure my images didn’t show through the front when the card was closed.
