The card I am sharing today is created using Stampin’ Up! Santa Express stamp set and Santa Train Dies along with the Santa Express Designer Series Paper. The Designer Series Paper really does all the work.  I used the Santa Train Dies to crop the Santa on his train and the stamp set for the greeting and sentiment.  This card is for one of my young friends from the school where I worked.  She has a new baby, so this will be prefect for Christmas.

The diagram above shows how to cut and score the Split Z Fold.  I started with a piece of Shaded Sprue card stock and cut and scored according to the diagram above.

Along with the Santa cropped from the Santa Express Designer Series Paper, I fussy cut the tree on the inside panel with the candy canes and adhered using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  The greeting above  Santa’s train is stamped in Real Red ink on a scrap of Basic White card stock and cropped using a die from the Stylish Shapes Dies.  The sentiment on the inside panel is stamped in Real Red ink on a piece of Basic White card stock, cropped using another of the Stylish Shapes Dies.  I matted the square on a piece of Real Red card stock. I then popped on the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

This is how the card looks closed.  I put a cute clip at the top to hold the card closed.

A panel of Santa Express Designer Series Paper is adhered to the back of the card using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  A piece of Basic White card stock is adhered over the panel.  I applied this panel so a note could be written as there is no space on the card front.

A medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of the Santa Express Designer Series Paper adhered to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
