Steps

Cut 8 1/2" x 11" piece of green Confetti in half to get a 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" piece. Fold in half so you have a 5 1/2" x 4 1/4" card.
On the inside right edge, stamp the decorative border in gold and emboss with Holiday Wreath powder.
Cut 1 3/8" strip from the left side of card (if it's open and laying flat). This will allow the decorative edge to be seen when the card is closed.
Cut 4 pieces of red Confetti cardstock so they're 1 3/8" x 1 3/8".
Stamp a letter, in gold, on each of the 4 pieces of cardstock and emboss with Holiday Wreath.
Put double stick tape on the back of each letter and adhere to card (see example for placement).
Outline each letter with gold gel pen.
Stamp large starry star stamp 4 times (see example for placement) and emboss with Rich Pale Gold.
