Bendi Fold Christmas Card

Howdy Crafters - thank you for stopping by my blog today. 
I created a Christmas card today that I am so happy with the end results.  It does take some time to put it together .... but it is so WORTH the time, designing, and effort.

    1. The base is easy to create - it is deciding how you will decorate that takes the time in thinking and gluing, and such - but such a lovely tutorial - I am going to make up some bases and put in plastic bags like I have done in the past with triple stamping cards - then I just have to pull one out and go to town - fun to do!

  15. Such a great card design and wonderful job on creating the scene. We are blessed that you joined our Challenge last week at Word Art Wednesday. There's still time to link your project for this week's Challenge before we begin a new one in a couple of days. Hope you come back! Leaving you with the inspiration of God's Word in 1 Thessalonians 5:9-10 to remind us of this, "For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. He died for us so that, whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with him." Have a wonderful week!

    Hugs always,
