Ho ho ho

Hey everybody, Happy Weekend! I hope you have something fun planned! I’m stoked to share a DT inspiration project for Keep It Simple created with papers and die cut pieces from our Here Comes Santa Claus Collection! This is a super basic fun fold called a diagonal pocket card and it is really easy. I love creating Christmas cards and DIY gifts for Christmas and I love me some fun folds, so this was definitely a win-win!

I cut the A2 size side-folding card base from CutCardStock Pop Tone Jellybean Green cardstock and sliced the front flap in half diagonally from top left down to bottom right. I added some wet glue along the very bottom edge of the diagonal flap and adhered it to the back flap. BOOM… super easy! I embellished the diagonal flap with papers and ephemera from the cut-apart sheet in the Here Comes Santa Claus 12×12 Collection Pack. I cut the corners of the focal panel with a Tonic Corner Punch and layered it on a piece of Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock. I used an assortment of die cut pieces to embellish the focal panel, popping some of them up on adhesive foam squares. The finishing touch was adding a few Back to Basics White Enamel Dots.

I created a top folding card from the Jellybean Green cardstock to slip into the diagonal pocket, and cut the corners with the Tonic Corner Punch. I embellished the front and inside of the folded card with more papers and ephemera from the cut-apart sheet in the Here Comes Santa Claus 12×12 Collection Pack, as well as a few more die cut pieces.
