I've had this Christmas tree die for a while, but this is the first time I've used it. I thought it would be perfect for a quick CAS Christmas card.

To make this card I used:
6" x 6" kraft card blank
Impression Obsession 'Merry Tree' die
Snippets of kraft card and white matt card
I trimmed a snippet of white matt card to 5" x 5" and then a snippet of kraft card to 4.75" x 4.75". I die cut the Christmas tree from the kraft card before layering it onto the white card and then attaching it to the card blank. I die cut the tree again from a snippet of white card before inlaying the white tree and the small infill snippets of kraft card.
I am entering the following challenges:
52 Christmas Card Throwdown - Kraft and White
Addicted to Stamps & More - Die Cuts and/or Stencils (I've used die cuts)
Alphabet Challenge - C for Christmas Tree
As You Like It Challenge - Clean & Simple or Fussy & Fancy (my favourite is always CAS - if I do make a fussy card I'm never happy with it as they tend to look messy!)
Christmas Crafts All Year Round - Rockin' around the Christmas tree
Cut It Up Challenge - Starts with a 'C' (I've chosen Christmas)
Krafty Chicks Challenge - CAS
NBUS - Challenge 73 (my new, to me, Christmas tree die)

I love the way you have inlaid the tree in white with the kraft card base, a wonderful combination, and finished with the white mat which coordinates perfectly Kath. x
Great CAS card and love the beautiful die-cut tree.

Hi Kath
I love inlaying dies - and this die is just perfect for doing that.
A beautiful finished card.
Shame your weather was rubbish yesterday - but hopefully it meant you got lots of crafting done.
Hope you are having a good Easter.
Love and hugs
