Christmas Tree Cards

Hello,

With Christmas not far away, I have a couple of cards, simple and quick to make.


I started by die-cutting the Christmas tree window from MFT from white cardstock. I then die-cut a rectangle around it using Gina Marie Scalloped Stitched Rectangles die. To give the trees a green color, I took a piece of green cardstock, adhered double-sided tape and added some green glitter over it. I rubbed the glitter firmly on to the tape using bone folder and tapped away the excess. This glitter cardstock is stuck behind the tree window using foam tape. I love the tree's added dimension and the shadows when foam tape is added.

I also die-cut a star from the same die set using gold mirror cardstock. For the mat, I used 2 different cardstocks for each card - one is a red cardstock with a self floral design, and the other is a plain dark red cardstock.  The panels are then attached to white top folding notecards. To complete, I've stamped the sentiment using Versafine Onyx Black ink :)




Thank you for stopping by, hope you like my cards! Do let me know your feedback! Have a nice day :)

    This is so beautiful, and even though it looks so elegant and simple, the amount of work you've put in to achieve the end result is incredible! Thanks for sharing this with us at Penny's!
