1

Create a red 5½x4¼” tent-fold card blank. Cut a slightly smaller piece of patterned paper and adhere. Cut a 4½x3¼” piece of white cardstock and use the stamping pad to stamp the sentiment in the bottom-right corner.

2

Die-cut several ovals from the same die you will create the window from – experiment with how many pieces of cardstock your machine will take.

3

Adhere all the pieces together so they stack neatly on top of one another. This will create a raised surface that the border dies will cut from.

4

Place the layered oval on the reverse of the white sentiment panel and secure in place using Washi tape.

5

Turn the panel back over, add the border die so it fits inside the oval and secure using Washi tape. Run through the die-cutting machine using the embossing folder platform.

6

Secure the same oval die over the die-cut houses and run it partially through the die-cutting machine on the standard cutting platform.

7

Ensure to only run through the top area above the houses as shown. Remove the cut out die-cut pieces.

8

Tie a length of twine around the card front and create a bow on the left-hand side. Attach the die-cut scene in the centre of the card front to finish.
