Christmas Training ~ Day 5

Closed Album ready for posting

You must be feeling a little in the mood to start your Christmas Cards & projects.
Well here we are on Day 5 with one of my favourite projects of the day the fold out mini album, this would make a great Christmas card with a few family photo's added as a keepsake for a family member.

The second card is a variation on the flower pot card, when I have made this previously I have put a panel on the back to write the greeting. With this version of the card I have made a panel that slips in & out of the pot & stuck the top two flowers onto the pnel that pulls out to reveal the place to write the greeting.
