OH my.....
This little gnome just melts my heart!
Isn't he cute!
This is one of the cards that everyone joining me at my
upcoming Holiday Extravaganza Class will be making!
I used the
#168283- Merry Mischief stamp set= $25.00

I left a slit in the side so that I could slide a gift card (or cash) into it.
Cool huh!
How did I do it?
I measured in 1" from each edge & with the card folded I cut down 1"
This make a rectangle.
You pop this rectangle up to form a box as shown in the photo above.
This is what you attach the present base to.
Here are the supplies & measurements.

- 'Merry Mischief' (gnome & words on card front & inside)
- 'Words & Wishes' (For You words on present)
