Great idea to use the raffia belt I used a ribbon on mine but at the second one only because mine didn't shut neither.
Yours is beautiful a real Vintage Christmas look

Yes, I had the same problem and was relieved to see in Holly's photo that she had it propped up on an inkpad in her "open" photo. I need to try again with a larger accordion on my base and lighter card, and see if I can salvage something from my first attempt. The raffia suits the rustic charm of this perfectly. I especially love the little wood-effect heart and the soft plaid paper.

Sallie,
first of all I love that you tied the panel pull out card together, it looks so festive and is functional as well! Your designer papers are so lovely and coordinate so well together! A beautiful joyful star and wonderfully embellished!

I just love all the colors and textures you used for your card! And what a great idea to keep it closed with raffia!
