Sparkling Tree Tile

I made this card for the CAS Christmas 'Tree' challenge.  I'm also entering the ABC Christmas Challenge 'P for Plain', the Memory Box Challenge 'Keep Cool and Carry On' and Happy Little Stampers Anything Goes with Dies challenge.


Card blank: 6" x 4" white matt
Die: Memory Box 'Sparkling Tree Tile'
Card: Green mirri and white matt

I die cut the tree from white card and trimmed around the edge so it was ¾" smaller than the card blank.  Before attaching the panel onto the green mirri matting layer I masked around the tree on the rear and sprayed it with Stick and Spray.  The panel was then layered onto the green mirri and attached to the centre of the card.  I placed a piece of kitchen paper on top of the tree and applied gentle pressure to ensure all the small intricate pieces of the die cut tree were secure.

Beautiful CAS Christmas tree card, Kath! The die-cut design is so pretty and the metallic shine of the green mirri is amazing! I love that you showed the mirri just a little as a trim. Thank you for playing along at CAS Christmas! Hideko xx
