I made this card for the current CAS Colours & Sketches 'Colour' challenge using an old Sizzix die and lots of snippets.

To make this card I used:
C6 white matt card blank
Sizzix 'Leafy Trees' and My Favorite Things 'Inside & Out Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-namics' dies
Snippets of white matt card, green textured card, red and gold pearlescent card

I used the largest rectangle die and a snippet of white card to cut the panel. As the die wasn't long enough I cut the first half of the rectangle and then moved the die to cut the second half. I then cut the tree from the centre before attaching the panel to the front of the card blank. I cut the tree from a snippet of green textured card and inlaid it into the panel. The tree was cut from snippets of red and gold pearlescent card and the leaves inlaid into the tree.
