I love trees on Christmas cards, and today’s design is a simple, square card. The card base is Thick Basic White Cardstock, 8 1/2″ X 4 1/4″, folded at 4 1/4″, embossed with the Snowflake Sky Embossing Folder. The square in the center is Thick Basic White Cardstock, cut with the largest, square, Stylish Shapes Die, and attached with Dimensionals.
The three, wonderful trees, were fussy cut from Traditions Of Saint Nick Designer Paper. I’ve talked about this paper for the last two days, so you probably guessed, it’s a favorite! After cutting the trees, I placed them on Dimensionals.
Three Christmas Trees
The sky behind the tress looks like watercoloring, doesn’t it? It was created by stamping in Lost Lagoon Ink with a Cheers To The Season stamp. I stamped three times, starting at the bottom and moving up, without re-inking. This gives the graduated color.
The sentiment, “Many Merry Thoughts & Wishes,” is from the Saint Nicholas Stamp Set. I stamped it in Mossy Meadow Ink, used a Sending Die for cutting, and attached it with Dimensionals.
For a little embellishment, I added three Iridescent Pearls, and my simple, square card was complete.
I was inspired by Freshly Made Sketches.
