Traditional Holiday Ornament Card - BoBunny (Yuletide Carol)

Hello Ladies,
It's Karen here and I am thrilled to share my tutorial for a quick traditional Christmas Card using the BoBunny collection (Yuletide Carol). As a paper crafter, my best advice when designing is to follow the "rule of three." Select embellishments in odd numbers and frequently three works best. It provides the best balance and most visual appeal for the viewer. My card shows a simple example where three ornaments are prominently featured.  Keep this simple designing principle in mind next time you are creating

Directions:
1. Select a background paper and cover the entire card base.

2. Cut a border and attach it to the lower edge of the card base.

3. Select 3 ornament & bow die cuts. Adhere them with 3D foam tape.


4. Cut a 2.5" piece of ribbon and pinch it at the center to form a faux bow. Next, open the pins slightly and slide the brad over the ribbon to cinch it at the center point.
5. Adhere the faux bow over the paper die cut bow. Attach the remaining brads to the center of the die cut bows.
