Special Christmas cards

I had ordered a small quantity of these gate-fold cards without any clear idea of what I was going to use them for. Then I had an idea of making cards with a Japanese theme, and thought at first of just having the torii gate on the front of a plain card. I then came across the gate-fold cards and realised that I could extend the Japanese theme a bit further. Because the cards were so complicated to make I only made a handful of them. I’m so pleased I can finally post these, as I am really happy with how they turned out.
