Wishing you lots of Christmas Joy and Creativity!
From Authentique Paper
One of the things I love about the Nostalgia collection is the fact that it works for people and pets alike! This 5 1/2" x 7 1/2" card folio will make a great gift for your favorite animal lover.
I've prepared an easy to follow step by step video tutorial that will guide you through the process of building the base, decorating the cover, adding interactive elements and arranging the florals. The great thing about this tutorial is that it can be used as a "recipe" for any card folio you would ever want to make. Just change out your Authentique Papers to suit the occasion and you're good to go!
The interior of the folio is filled with interactive elements like a magnetic flap and pocket page and a pocket and folio insert.
I just love the pet sentiment cut aparts, and had a blast using them in this project.
I hope Santa Paws pays attention to this heartfelt wish!
And doggie Christmas carols are so much fun!
I'll add a handy cutting guide and supply list below this post to make the creative process really easy for you!
Thanks so much for joining me here today!
