Time for DT Thursday with another fun card making project from Sandiebella to help us get through to the weekend! Click on through for Sandiebella’s fab step by step tutorial showing how to create a gorgeous Parcel Card featuring one of the adorable Santa stamps from the Holiday 2016 release! For Silhouette users, Sandie has also generously included a free Silhouette Studio cut file, linked above the supplies list.
Santa has a Prezzie Cut it Out dies and Stamp bundle
White Card
Patterned Paper
Bakers twine
Adhesive
Scoring board and bone folder.
Step by Step:
Card base template
Lay the patterned paper onto the card base (do not glue!) and with a pencil mark where the parcel sits. Cut both the patterned paper and the white card layers to removed this section, as shown.
Adhere all the patterned papers to the white card layers.
Adhere the panels to the card base.
Apply a strip of 1/4″ double sided tape along the narrow section at the end of the card base.
Stamp the image onto white card
Adhere the patterend paper to the white circle and mount the image on top using 3D foam dots. Adhere the circles to the front of the card, postitioned so that the top peeks up a little from the top, again using 3D foam dots. Stamp the sentiment, cut out using your preferred shape and adhere on pop dots also.
Remove the double sided tape from the narrow section of the card base, and close as shown.
Using the above template, or the silhouette file, take the box and apply glue to the areas marked on the template.
Close up the box
Adhere a panel to the top, front and sides.
Wrap twine around the box and tie in a bow at the front.
Pop the parcel into the hole and your card is complete.
Hopefully I’ve inspired you to sit down and try your hands at this lovely project.

How cute! Thanks for sharing this! 🙂
I love how you made this card but it looks way to complicated for me and I don’t have a die cutter, scoring board or bone folder. It is very cute but with that little box on the front of the card can you just mail it like that or do you have to put it in a special envelope and pay more for postage? Enquiring minds want to know! LOL Leave it to you guys to come up with something clever for a card.
