Ruby Rock-It: Believe In The Magic of Christmas



Hello Everyone!
I have been getting into the Christmas spirit with the gorgeous Christmas Dreams Collection.  I have coordinated some festive magic with some brand new colours from the Francheville card making range to create an easel card
 The new card range consists of Teal, Metallic Bronze, Metallic Pearl, Pink, Blue, Boysonberry and Ivory.
Ruby RockIt! Products:
Christmas Dreams 12x12 Paper Pad & 6x6 Paper Pad
Fundamentals Bitty Bows FTE17, Ruby Rock It Happy Days Droplets HYE18, Distress Ink Mermaid Lagoon
Other:
Scalloped and Plain Circle Cutting Dies, Roller Die Cutting Machine 

To create the easel card:

Position a scalloped circle die over the folder edge of the Francheville card. I have worked with one of the new colours - pink.


 Run the card through the die cutting machine.  Also die cut a single scalloped circle from another card (I used Ivory) or plain cardstock.


Fold over one have of the scalloped circles towards the fold  
Tip: Try and match the scalloped edges


Now attach the individual scalloped circle to the folded part 



This is what the reverse of my card looks like:


Decorate the card surfaces with coordinating patterned papers from the Christmas Dreams 6 x 6 Paper Pad. Ink the  paper edges with Mermaid Ink Distress Ink. 


I die cut scalloped circles and smaller plain edged circles.  I layered these, adding foam dots for a little dimension. 


I also fussy cut a larger 'fun' element from the 12 x 12 Paper Pad.  I added this to the front of card


Thanks so much for dropping by,
Happy Creating!
