Papertrey Ink Christmas card

Hello everyone,

I'm playing catch up on the Online Holiday Card Workshop but I know that the classes will come in very useful over the coming weeks even if I don't finish with everyone else. For Day 5 we were asked to use die and stamp combos so I used Papertrey Ink Tree Trimming Trio stamp set and die, and was inspired by a card from Shari Carroll to produce this one:-


I cut a strip off the front of the card and put the tree over the edge. Some  patterned paper on the inside


adds a little more interest. The red panel was embossed with a snowflake embossing folder from Design Objectives.

Thanks for stopping by.

Hugs
Carol x

This turned out beautiful Carol! Such pretty colors, and embossing. The tree is my favorite one out there.

I love the color scheme you chose Carol.
You have a great eye for 'what works' both in color and composition.
Super card.

Very beautiful card. Your card is inspired by the original, but your design fits my style a bit better, so I enjoyed seeing yours.

What a fun card. I love how that card looks with the patterned paper from the bottom layer showing.
