Morning everyone, I hope you are making your Christmas Cards by now. Here is my latest poinsettia card with Heartfelt Creations goodies.

Cut the base to 7 x 11 1/2inches
Score at 1 inch on all four sides on both pieces, fold and burnish all sides
Cut tabs on opposite sides of the box on both pieces
Nip out a tiny edge on each section of each tab with scissors
Add glue to the front of the tabs, bring base up and glue together
Glue all four tabs down and hold the corners together with clips until dry
Line the base of the box with pretty paper
Adhere another paper to the lid, leaving a small gap around edges
Decorate lid with a flower and leaves
All done.
