Another gap card but this time it's rectangular. I cut a piece of A4 Real Red CS in half length ways and then scored and folded that in half to make the card. For the gap, I cut 2 1/2" off the bottom of the card, glued the top of the Circles die shape, lined up the 2 1/2" piece I'd earlier cut off and glued the bottom of the Circles shape to that and then cut the excess CS off at the bottom of the card. I then glued a second Circles die cut shape to the back to add some strength.
I stamped the baubles and cut them out and hand drew the strings. The baubles are all popped up with 3d foam pads.
This time I decided to add some patterned paper behind the gap element. As I tried a strip of the green snowflakes paper I couldn't believe how the three snowflakes just happened to fit behind the larger circles - it's fab when something happens like that!
I stamped the sentiment, added crystals to the baubles and rounded the bottom corners and that was the card done.
