Warmest Winter Wishes card instructions:

Cut a piece of ivory cardstock to measure 6 !” x 9 "”. Score the cardstock down the middle to create a card that measures 6 !” high x 4 #” wide when it is folded.

To create the base of the card, cut a piece of the snowflake paper from the January Cut-aparts paper 4 "” x 6”. Adhere this piece to the front of the card leaving a small ivory border of the card showing on all four sides.

From the January Cut-Aparts sheet of pa-per, cut out the Graphic 45 postcard with the blue snowflakes on it and cut it verti-

cally down the middle. Using the photo as a guide, adhere the right side of the post-card in the top right corner of the card, approx !” down from the top edge of the blue snowflake paper and approx !” in from the right edge of the blue snowflake paper. Adhere the left side of the postcard on the snowflake paper down in the bottom right corner approx !” up from the bot-tom edge and approx "” in from the right edge of the snowflake paper.

Cut a piece of the blue dot patterned paper from the January Cut-apart paper 2 #” wide x 4 "” high. From this same side of the paper, cut a strip approx "” high from the blue dot paper up into the red area where it says “Happy New Year”, this piece will be adhered to the back of the top edge of the blue dot paper near the red “Happy New Year” area so you end up with a tiny strip of stripe paper, then a thin line of red and then the blue dot paper. Cut out the “January” jour-

nal paper from the January Cut-apart sheet and adhere it to this piece of blue dot paper. Adhere a piece of scrap card-board to the back of this piece of blue dot paper and then a layer of foam mounting tape. Before you adhere this piece to the card, cut a small approx "” square of red from the cut apart sheet next to the girl second from the bottom right corner. This red square is tucked under the top of the snowflake paper just to bring some color up into that area.

Trace the mitten pattern onto the red dot paper from the July Cut-Apart sheet and cut it out. Trace the cuff of the mitten onto the blue stripe paper from the Janu-ary Cut-apart sheet and adhere the cuff to the mitten. Bend the mitten slightly to give it a more “rounded” appearance. If you are using a tree branch on your cut, cut it down to fit the card and then adhere it to the card with a small amount of glue from a hot glue gun. When the branch is dry, adhere the mitten with either a hot glue gun or several layers of foam mount-ing tape.

Thread the blue floral clock from the chipboard sheet and thread a piece of the seam binding through the holes, securing it at the back. Tie a piece of seam bind-ing into a bow and adhere the bow and the chipboard clock to the mitten. Cut out the Warmest Winter Wishes sentiment from the January Cut-apart sheet and adhere it to the mitten as shown. To complete the card, remove the back prongs from a Stamped Metal Brad and adhere to the mitten in the bottom right corner.
