This card actually folds in thirds I just could not get a good picture of it standing upright. I scored the white cardstock at 3½” on each side which left the center 4” wide. Using the Spellbinders M-Bossabilities brick pattern I embossed each of the sides. I then die cut and punched out all the pieces I was going to use and added snow so everything could dry.
To create the fence punch out two brown pieces using the Martha Stewart Deep Edge Iron punch. Then create branches with the Martha Stewart Branch punch, glue along fence and using Glistening Snow-Tex to create glittering snow at the top. When dry add a Memory Box Party Lanterns for fun.
The trees are DeeÂ’s Distinctively Small Snow Covered Stacker Tree and I used a little Glistening Snow-Tex on them. The flower pot attached to the trees is a Carl Carla Craft pot shaped punch.
For the windows I used Memory Box Small Madison Arched Window and a piece of Grafix Clear-Lay plastic film, I added patterned cardstock a cat and presents before gluing to bricked front. Top each window with Cheery Lynn Designs Lace Corner Deco F in small cardstock as window.
Door is Memory Box Grand Madison, with Cheery Lynn Designs Lace Corner Deco F, and two Cottage Cutz Lantern Mini die.

This is quite an undertaking, but beautiful and well worth every bit of work! I love even the small details, such as the kitty in one window and the gifts in the other!

Wow, this is incredible - I love the details you added, right down to the snow on the fences, the details in the window, etc. Such a fantastic card (and piece of art)!

What a pretty wintery scene. I havent tried that kind of fold yet, looks neat...might have to give it a shot...looks like a lot of work, but so worth it. Especially with such pretty details like here....TFS..:0)
