These cards have taken a while to come to fruition ..... I actually started them in January, by making the double gate-fold card blanks and adding the paper panels using old freebie magazine papers. And there I was stuck!
I bought the sentiment stamp from Inkylicious a while later and realised it was perfectly sized for the inner panel. So I stamped / heat embossed five images in colours to match the papers, then die-cut using a stitched square. It turned out that the red didn't match one of the papers as well as I had thought it would, so that square was put aside. When I went back to it, I used gold instead, but couldn't be bothered to dig out the die again, so used a circle punch.
There seemed to be something missing, the cards needed some detail on the front panels, so I put them aside (again!) waiting for inspiration. Eventually I decided on some SU snowflake stamps, stamped /heat embossed those and used their matching punches to cut out. It's a little difficult to see in the photo, but the snowflakes run under the image on the inside panel, as well as on the front.
They have turned out rather well (eventually!) and I actually prefer the circle inside the card to the squares, so that's something to remember for next time!
