Have a Tree Trimming Christmas

 


Merry  Christmas Everyone!!!!

It's Christmas Day already down here in Australia! I must have been a good girl this year as I did very well! 😀

There are many of you who visit my blog regularly, so I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all so much for your support throughout the year. Hope you all have a wonderful and safe Christmas!

As many of you who follow me know, I have posted a lot this year due to illness. But for as long as I can remember I have always posted a Christmas card on my blog on Christmas day, and of course wanted to do the same this year. So on Saturday I pulled out some of my Karen Burniston dies to create this card. 


For my card today I used Karen Burniston's Christmas Tree Pop-up along with the new Christmas Tree Add-ons die set. This set allows you to add ornaments to your tree which is lots of fun to do! It also gives you a tree skirt which I think makes it easier to add to you card. I created a 5 x 7 inch card which means the tree was able to be centred in my card.

I used the Crosshatch Rectangles die set to create the layers for my card, adding sentiments from the Seasons of Cheer stamp set, I love the tree trimming sentiment included in this stamp set.


I added the stocking border to the top left and bottom right hand sides of my card, as well as two candy canes to the sentiment panel on the right. For these I used the Christmas Borders 2 die set.



Finally the front of my card, which I kept fairly simple seeing the focus is on the inside of my card.

I used the Merry Christmas Lorna Labels Add-ons for the sentiment and I added two more stocking borders to the top and bottom of my card.
