This card is a tri-fold. The pink lines on the template should be drawn with the pen tool first, before sending the rest to cut. The leaves, pears and partridge are all decoupaged.
Hope it is useful.
Edited to add that the font used was Edwardian Script ITC

Another For Christmas.. A fancy bauble with a fancy box, such a lovely gift/keepsake for Chirstmas..
Designed in inkscape and I have cut from conqueror concept golden haze and mirri card... Looks so beautiful when made up and I am sure could be used to hang on your real tree..
Wanted to share this one with you am really really pleased with the result of this, done it in 45 minutes! which I was really chuffed with, I did have to tape/glue a bit to hold the tree upright have indicated this on template.
I still think it may need a bit of tweaking as christmas tree leans back slightly? If anyone can advise/help be grateful as did play around a bit with it.
I cut the card in 180gsm and then cut a tree layer and embossed in my cuttlebug just used ordinary copier paper for now as still class it in the design stage!
Look forward to any input advice.

P.S ! lol have just made it smaller and tree stands up now but makes a 'tiddly' card!, so am wondering if I should just play with the template size til I get as far as I can with tree standing completely upright...........

Reason: Update on template
It is different and Very festive and will also come accompanied with a box template for you to either display or give as a keepsake gift for someone special at Christmas.
This particular template has been cut and assembled by Nicola Joliff another member of my team she has cut from blue and white card and sprayed with spray and sparkle to make it twinkle...
The text on this card is cut on one side only, so that it can be folded over to form the completed letters of the word 'Noel'. I put the topper through my cuttlebug using the swiss dots folder to give it extra texture, before folding the letters back.

Taking 'inspiration' from Joyce's amazing designs. Here's a 3D 'honeycombe' Bell shape which I have made into a swinging element on a card. Don't worry, I do have Joyce's permission.
I have also tried to do instructions simillar to Joyce cos they are always so clear, unfortunately I fear mine are not, lol.
For this card I printed the backing paper on to card then cut out the card base. I ran the icicle through an embossing folder and added a bit of glitter. I fixed the ends of the string holding the snowflake on the back of the icicle so you can't see the ends when it's stuck on to the base card. Svg and gsd formats can be downloaded from my blog if anyone would like them and of course you can just use the snowflakes on their own.
