Peaceful Deer Diamond Book Bound fold Project 10 of the 12 Projects of Christmas 2021

 Can you believe we are almost to the end of the 12 Projects of Christmas series?  Time is sure flying by.  Today has been a very busy crafting day.  I helped the granddaughters make 68 holiday treat bags for their classrooms, as well as creating this project for today.  I do have projects planned ahead; however, it seems like I tend to create a new one most days.  Crazy huh?  I just have a new idea pop into my head and I have to run with it to see where it goes.  I sure hope you like the project today.  I was inspired by a card Lisa Curcio made which used the diamond element on today's card.  It made me wonder what it would look like when paired with the book bound fun fold, and that is how today's card came together.

Here is the inside view.  If you would like to see how I put this card together, you can watch my video here https://youtu.be/A-2ooTuHaQU
