Welcome to week 12 of Christmas inspiration from the Art With Heart Team for 2023.

This week I have a simple Double "Z-Fold" card for you. I didn't have much time this week to create a card. In fact I was still creating the card a couple of hours before the blog hop was about to start so I thought I would just let the gorgeous Designer Series Paper do all the work! I knew I had to do a fancy fold as I couldn't let Theresa Gerrard down!

For my card I have used a Shaded Spruce card base on both the "z" portions and layered them with Pecan Pie card before adding the Joy of Christmas DSP to the base layer "Z"

For the tops "z" I have used the Joyful Specialty DSP with the Gold Foil through it to add that extra bit of bling to the card. In this photo you can also see I have added a space for writing but you could decorate this section more elaborately and add a writing section to the back of your card.

On the very front I have heat embossed the sentiment in gold and cut out using the Christmas Classic Dies and under each corner I have added a couple of sprigs of pine in Shaded Spruce and Old Olive. The little holly bling I have added are actually the Tinsel Gems Four Pack from the Annual Catalogue in case you missed them and these are the Berry Burst ones and I really like them!

If you have any questions about my card today please do not hesitate to contact me.
