Bootiful Occasions

Hey…did you notice?  Create with Connie and Mary has a NEW LOOK for the Holidays and I have the new badge on my blog!!!  We've opened our Early Bird Special Price savings, too!  Go check it out!

 

I wanted to show off my Control Freaks New Catalog Swap that I participated in a couple months ago…right before Convention.  I got the idea from my upline, Candy, to use this swing template for my card.  I hadn't made one in years, and the set I selected for the swap, Bootiful Occasions, was perfect for it!  Here is the view closed.

 

 

And, here is the view open!

 

 

The base is Cherry Cobbler, cut to 4 1/4 x 11, scored at 2 3/4 & 5 1/2.  Fold in half, then fold the front part back on itself.  I added a strip of Be of Good Cheer Designer Paper along the right edge.  I used the 3 1/2" Circle to cut out the front half circle by only partially running it thru the Big Shot, then cut a 3" Circle of the DSP to fit inside.  I also used the Perfect Polka Dots on the half folded in front. 

 

I stamped the Christmas Boot in Black Stazon on Very Vanilla and colored with Cherry Cobbler and Sahara Sand Stampin' Write Markers and my AquaPainter.  I added Dazzling Details to the cuff and tassels.  I punched it out with the 2 1/2" Circle Punch.  I stamped the greeting on Gumball Green and punched with the Large Oval Punch, popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals on the front.  I added some Gumball Green Stitched Ribbon tied along the front piece. 

 

On the inside, I also added a greeting from More Merry Messages in Black Stazon on Gumball Green and punched with the 2 1/2" Circle.  I love these motion cards…so much fun!
