Tis the Season Framed Phrase

 Large frame decoration to capture Christmas cheer 

is composed of separately-cut top, bottom and sides 

frame members which join at corners, 

with “rolled” inner rim and wrap-over walls for strength. 

Center panel has strategic cut-in guide marks for 

main letters of phrase words ‘Tis the Season’ 

(or retain the normally-weeded areas when cutting out letters) 

to assist with placement. 

Within the plaque layout a large square area can hold 

a separate 4.5” x 4/5” (or slightly larger) design element 

such as “Mistletoe Wreath Card” 

(front panel only) separate design. 

The center panel with words can be used 

separate from the frame for vinyl decor or scrap booking. 

Requires 12x12 cutting capacity and stock.
