52CCTD Pop Up Christmas Card

Happy Tuesday, peeps! I have been very neglectful in making Christmas card this year; not sure why, because they are my favorite cards to make!  The 52 Christmas Card Throwdown challenge was to make a pop-up card, and I thought this card by Andrea was just beautiful! 

My card is much more simplified than hers, as I was just trying to get the measurements and the engineering of the card to work!!  So here we go:

Outside:

Inside:

My card base is Basic Beige, and the front is a panel from Divinity Designs' Christmas Paper Collection 2014.  The inside, which measures 4" x 6 1/4", scored on each long side at 2" and 2 1/2", is from SU's retired Dandy Designs.  You can see how the fold works here:

I added a panel of Gold Glimmer paper and a sentiment from Christmas Labels, stamped in Boho Blue.  The panel can fold to either side to fit in the envelope easily.  My only other embellishment was a gold dot on the star on the front of the card.  Simple and easy!  Thanks for visiting today! Enjoy it and be blessed!

I have complete confidence in the gospel; it is God's power to save all who believe, first the Jews and also the Gentiles.  For the gospel reveals how God puts people right with himself:  it is through faith from beginning to end.  As the scripture says, "The person who is put right with God through faith shall live."  Romans 1:16-17
