Hi, welcome to my hang out place.
Today I want to share a very elegant card to start the new 'SNOW KISSED' collection off with.
The tag and box in this release can be used all the year round.
Today I start with a Z slider card...I am totally in love with at the moment. If you make one you will know what I mean... Have fun on your visit.

Card stock: Crafters Companion 300gm White hint of gold. Other: Versa-mark, Ranger glossy accents, Glue dot, Winter white seam binding ribbon, fussy cutting scissors, 1/2 Gold pearls, Diamond dust. Black soot, Pine needles distress inks. Foam distress ink tool.
Directions:
The finished size of this Z slider card is 15 cm x 13.5 cm.
Using the white card stock cut for the card base, 27 cm x 13.5 cm. Make folds at 6 cm and 12 cm across the 27 cm side to form a hill and valley fold. 15 cm x 13.5 cm and 6 cm x 13.5 cm. from this will be decorated with design paper. The card front extension, cut 13 cm x 10 cm. For the card front slide, cut 11.5 cm x 4.5 cm.
Find the papers in the paper collection to decorate the card fronts. Taking 2mm off the edge for each layer. Take the tag die from the Snow Kissed collection and cut from the design paper. Do the same with the tag die from the Luggage and Tags die set.
After applying ink to the edges of the cut design paper, adhere all to the card stock bases.
* NOTE*
Matting on the card front extension is left open along the top so the card front slide can be slipped in to it. Adhere the Card front extension about ? cm up from the card foot edge. The card front slider can now be adhered to the center top of the card.
Stamp the Spruce trees with the gold embossing powder, cut and shape with the flower shaping tool kit.
Apply the white drying glue on the tips and branches of the Spruce tree, sprinkle Diamond dust over the glue. Put aside to dry.
Die cut the leaf banner image and apply glitter to it.
Find the sentiment, cut and apply gold embossing the edges, do the same for the tag edges.
Make a bow from the ribbon. Arrange the embellishments then adhere in place.
Sprinkle a little gold embossing powder onto the tag and background, heat emboss this. Add the ? pearls.
Apply the glossy to the birds and berries. When dry slip the card front slider between the matting papers that have been left open and card stock. This will allow the card to close and when pulled a little, the card will stand firmly on it’s own.
