Hello friends,
Today, I have  Christmas card to share with you and the main attraction on the card is the origami wreath. My son taught me how to make this wreath in his class room last week for Special Person Day. 

His teacher is awesome at creating beautiful origami projects and she loves to teach the kids to create projects. The crafty girl in me was immediately drawn to her origami projects and wanted to learn more:)

I hope you enjoy and get inspired to look into Origami to make it part of your cards! Enjoy.

Challenges:

3 Girl Jam tis-season with ribbon

Hiding in my Craft room-Holiday colors

Creative Inspirations Paint- Merry Christmas

Just b Creative Crazy-December linky
DL Art- December linky party
Little Scrap Pieces-Linky Party

I embossed the Whisper White with the 

"Woodgrain Textured Impressions Folder" item#127821

Each Origami wreath was created with 8  pieces of paper which measure 4" X 2" I also wanted you to see both sides of this "Polka Dot Parade Designer Paper" item#126902. Let me know if you would like me to make a video on how to create this Origami wreath on this simple card:)

I created this cute bunny using the 3/4 circle punch, small oval punch and the Blossom punch. I covered some nugget chocolates with the "It's a Wrap Occasions Stamp Set" by simply stamping the Thanks so much image and then punching the tiny Petite Curly Label Punch which you can get for FREE from the Sale- A-Bration Catalog with a $50 order.  The tiny punch fits PERFECTLY on top to cover the sentiment and add any embellishment you wish.

The box is the "Fancy Favor Bigz XL Die"  I cut about 1/2" from the top to make it shorter and used the "Window Frame Framelits Dies" for the flaps on the sides and embossed them using the Honeycomb Textured Impressions Folder
