Christmas Puds
This is a lovely, quick and easy card to make. You will need one square card 144x144mm some coloured card, white glitter card, a circle punch and some ribbon. I have used pink and greens but you can use any colour you wish. First cut out three long strips of coloured card each one being slighly smaller than the first. The first being approximate 4.5cm wide and 144cm long. Place the wider strip on the centre of the card and glue. Glue the second strip on top and the smaller of the two on top of that, cut off any over lap at each end of the card. Punch out three circles two pink and one green and two circles in the white glitter card. Place the green circle in the centre of the card and the two pink circles on each side of the green circle. Cut the two circles from the glitter card in half, You will only need three halves. Place one half on each of the christmas puds. This will give the effect of cream. Tie the pink ribbon around the card. You can enhance the cream by adding some glitter glue but this is optional. Add some holly to the tops of the Christmas puddings to finish off your card.
