Boy this week’s Splitcoaststampers Sketch Challenge was a little different. The sketch is a shaped card that we fussy cut! I love the Oh Holy Night Designer Paper and thought it would work well for this design.

Here’s the sketch I used. You have to be sure that you keep the top edge folded so it stays as a card base that opens. You can click on the sketch to see the other projects posted for this sketch.

Fold an 8 1/2 x 11 piece of scrap paper in half and then in half again.
Cut a half heart, making sure the top keeps the fold. Make sure it will fit into your envelope. I made mine to fit in an A2 size envelope and had to cut it down a few times to get that size.
Open the heart to see your template. It should look like this with the top part folded.

Trace the template onto a piece of O Holy Night Designer Series Paper and cut along the trace lines..
Night of Navy Card Base - 5 1/2 x 11, score at 5 1/2. Trace the heart template on the card base and cut along the trace lines. Make sure the top keeps some folded area.
Adhere the Designer Series Paper heart to the front of the card base making sure it lines up before you adhere it. You may have to trim it a little bit.
Cut Nativity scene from Basic Black using the Night Divine Dies and adhere to the card front with Dimensionals.
Stamp sentiment with Night Of Navy Ink on scrap of Basic White and fussy cut around it. You can leave it a a strip if you want. Adhere to card front with Dimensionals.
Add a gold star to the card front.
