Hello everyone! It’s Channin here for another Watch It Wednesday! This week I demonstrate how to create this charming trifold Christmas card that is perfect for giving a special gift. It’s a definitely crowd pleaser with it’s frosted window panels, a technique I learned from the amazing Jennifer McGuire, and adorable winter scene created with the adorable Cold Hands Stamp Set. Plus this card is perfect for gift giving with the little gift card envelope created with the Gift Bag Die on the inside.
[WIW] Frosted Window Trifold Card by Channin
Watch below or on our YouTube channel.
First, I created the card bases by partially die cutting two A2 card bases made from 110lb white cardstock with the A2 Arch Window Die and the A2 Nested Dome Dies, creating 2 arched shaped card bases, but one with the an arched window front. I then created a mountain mask and pond mask with contact paper simply by cutting them by hand. Then I placed them on the “back” of the arched card base, which will actually become the second fold of this trifold card.
Once the masks were in place, I ink blended with Distress oxides to create the sky (Worn Lipstick, Abandoned Coral, Candied Apple) and pond (Broken China). I then removed the masks and then stamped and copic colored several images from the Cold Hands Stamp Set and 2 greenery branches from the A2 Arched Window Die. Once I had finished coloring all the images I die cut the Cold Hands images with the matching dies.
Next, I adhered the images to the blended scene and then added a arched frame cut from 110lb white cardstock die cut with two A2 Nested Dome Dies. I then stamped a sentiment from the Peace on Earth Stamp Set in distress oxides Abandoned Coral and Candied Apple on the inside of the card base with the window front.
I then die cut another arch out of vellum with the A2 Nested Dome Dies and another arched window out of white cardstock with the A2 Arched Window Die and then glued the two together. Next, I sprinkled a small amounts of white embossing powder over the vellum window and then cleaned up the panes with a small brush. I then heat set the embossing powder with a pre-heated heat gun, applying the heat to the underside of the the window so not to blow the powder off the window.
Once the embossing powder was all set, I simply wiped the window down with a dry cloth to remove any excess powder. I then glue the window to the window card front and then decorated the front of the card with the previously colored greenery branches and mittens. Lastly, I adhered the two card bases together and then added a gift card envelope which I die cut a using the Gift Bag Die out of patterned paper.
I hope you enjoyed! Thanks so much for stopping by!
