Quirky tree

 Hello lovely crafters. 

I was recently having a sort out in my card box so I counted out the Christmas cards I have ready. I thought I had quite a few. 

Three!

Better get on with it then. 

The CAS Christmas card challenge is one I follow every month and this month I've actually made a card. 



I've used a Christmas tree die, cut twice and layered. Dotty background and a Merry Christmas die cut which is also two layers. 


It turned out a bit more fussy than I planned and the red border is wider than I wanted due to the limits of my dies and embossing folders. 
However much stuff you have it's never quite right!

So I'll go and look up a few more challenges for inspiration. 
Thanks for visiting, enjoy your day. x

  2. What an interesting tree, lovely card. It seems we can never really have enough dies, stamps, colouring materials ... and so on but there is always temptation out there to buy more 😉

  5. I think this is perfect, the dotty background adds so much texture but allows the CAS to shine! We thank you for sharing this card at CAS Christmas!
