Card envelope?

You will probably remember this wreath from an earlier post. Well I finally decided to do something witht it.

I formed the card by first stenciling the design on the corners, I sewed gold metalic thread between the red and blak circles, (you will notice I did the same thing to the flap, so when closed it joins up). I glued the ribbing from a wire ribbon around the cutout,then I reattached the wreath so it swings open to relveal a santa underneath and I wrote Merry Christmas with a gel pen.
All done except to afix a ribbon to close the flap.

Tonniece, this is a great card. I like how the card yields two beauties, the wreath on top, and the Santa Claus underneath. I also like the designs on the four corners. They look like celtic knots to me :)

Thanks everyone

This one was a hoot to do, I changed it several times, but I'm happy with the results.

Thanks again
