INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare your card base by cutting a piece of thick whisper white cardstock in half and folding it.
Then cut a 1 1/2″ x 5 1/4″ piece of your favourite plaid from the pack and glue it to a 4″ x 5 1/4″ piece of whisper white cardstock.
After that, you want to wrap a piece of the ribbon around that panel. Now, you are ready to attach the panel to the card base with your favourite adhesive.
Which tree from the stamp set will you choose to stamp with shaded spruce ink? As long as you stamp two of them on a scrap piece of whisper white cardstock. Then, punch them out with the Pine Tree punch included in the bundle.
While you have the punch in your hand, punch a tree out of the gold foil sheet in the same way. All the trees are popped up with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Now, we work on the greeting. Stamp it with cherry cobbler ink on a scrap piece of whisper white cardstock that you will then die-cut with one of the stitched nested labels. It is also popped up with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
