Hometown Greetings Trifold - Holiday Catalogue Sneak Peek

The plan for this card started hatching as soon as I saw this gorgeous bundle in the new Holiday Catalogue (runs from 1 September 2017 to 2 January 2018).

Contact me if you would like a Catalogue (and live in Australia and don't have a Stampin' Up Demonstrator).

This trifold card uses the new Hometown Greetings Edgelits dies

The bundle comprises the Hometown Greetings Edgelits dies and the Hearts Come Home stamp set to provide a saving of 10%.

I made a trifold with an A4 piece of Night of Navy cardstock cut to 10.5" long.  I scored the long side at 3.5" and 7" and folded in the right side and then folded over the left side.

The folds are cut at different levels to create a series of hills
I then made Whisper White layers cut with the three "hometown" dies in the set.  Before I adhered the die cut layers to the base card, I glued pieces of So Saffron cardstock behind the buildings to light up the windows.

The greetings are from new sets: Snoflake Sentiments and Hearts Come Home

 I then cut down the two folds as far as the die cuts and fussy cut around the shapes.

There's plenty of space for a hand-written greeting

I coloured the trees roughly with some Emerald Envy ink and then gave them a layer of Embossing Paste snow.  I also added some Embossing paste to the roofs.

Thank you for visiting.
'Til next time!
