Winter Fun.....

This is the A5 version of yesterday's card. I'm not a huge fan of DL cards (which yesterday's card was) so I adapted the fold to fit a C5 envelope and this card fits the bill! I used a piece of A2 card - I buy mine from The Range for £2.99 for 25 sheets-and scored it @ 5", 10" & 15" using a Hougie Board. The A2 card fits the board perfectly, then I just trimmed down the resultant concertina card to the same height as an A5 card (A4 folded in half). I then trimmed 2 panels to a diagonal leaving 1/2cm to allow for punching. I then decorated the card using Dovecraft papers, a pink glittercard skater frame with embossed mirri background, spotty ribbon, plenty of punched snowflakes (life's way too short to cut small snowflakes using the Bug!) and a sentiment cut from more glittercard/mirri with a white base shadow. A smattering of pink & blue gems complete the card.
Carts used:
Skater frame-Winter Woodland
Sentiment-Winter Frolics
Thanks for looking!
