I decided to have a go at creating a Twist Gate Fold card using the Comfort and Joy Paper Packet, along with the stamp set found in the Comfort and Joy Cardmaking Workshop. 

It is a fun card on the outside, and then it opens up to reveal a message on the inside!

I simply used a Comfort and Joy PML card for the inside sentiment, but you could get really creative with stamped sentiments or handwritten notes- even a Christmas photo of your family. 

I added a sentiment and Christmas tree to the front using the Comfort and Joy Cardmaking Workshop stamp set, along with Scarlet and Evergreen ink. I adhered these with foam tape so that they would help to close the card but also so they wouldn't get int he way when you open it. 

The finishing touch was to add the Carnation Red Liquid Pearls to the Christmas tree to make it a bit more festive!
