There are a lot of different Facebook groups for card makers with many great ideas that are shared. The tutorial for this card was on a group called Let’s Make Cards and Have Fun. I watched the video last night and decided to give it a try.
I went with a Christmas theme because I just received an order with some Christmas die cuts from Waffle Flower and because of the “Christmas in July” theme that is common this month.
Here is a view of the card when closed, open, and open with the middle section open:
