12 Days of Xmas Cards Day 8

As promised, here are more tree cards:

Let’s start at the bottom right- I made a cut file of tiny stars in the shape of a tree. Super cute, right? But it took forever to cut and then poke out all the little stars. I really liked the look however, and I had just bought some Heidi Swapp gold texture paste and I thought that the cut file would make a perfect stencil. So I ran an acetate page divider through my Silhouette to cut the stencil. Then I used the gold texture paste to make the trees. So much fun, and it looks amazing. The top right card I used some Heidi Swapp color shine on a makeup sponge to make the tree green, and the bottom left I just added some splatters.

The top left card- I had the idea to have a shape and fill it with embellishments. I used a leftover piece of cardstock that I had cut a tree from for something else, and I glued it to some more cardstock, and I went to town filling it with gems, sequins, and enamel dots. I liked the end result but it wasn’t my favorite so I didn’t waste energy and materials on making more of something I’m not thrilled about.

Tomorrow we get a break from trees. Tune in to find out what I’m doing instead.
