This one is about the layout of the card as much as it is about the card itself. This design lends itself easily to any occasion and just about any sentiment. This could easily be a masculine card with non-floral paper. I erroneously stated that the stamp set I used for my first card was retired, it definitely is not. The Stamp Set Positive Thoughts is not retired. It is, in fact a lovely set and order-able.
Measurements:
1 Whisper White card Base 8 ½” by 5 ½” scored and folded at 4 ¼”
1 Pieces of Whisper White 3 ¾” by 8 ¾”
3 pieces of 6” X 6” Sheet Flowers for Every Season DSP4 1 cut at 4 1/8” by 5 2/8”, 1 cut at 5 3/8” by 2” and one cut at 5/8” by 3 ¾”
This was a fun card to put together. I love the Idea of the slim line card to show off the Christmas tree. There are so many things we can do with a card this size.
Here are some of the cuts used to make this card:
The first cut of the 6″by 6″ piece in half at 3 inches.
Next cut the first tree cut from the 3″ by 6″ half
Cut the other 3″ by 6″ piece in half and cut a tree from the middle of one half. This piece goes in the center of the tree above from the reverse side.
Cut the 3 by 6 inch piece in half, so you have two pieces 1 1/2″ by 6″ and cut a tree from each half. These little off cuts can also be used on either side of the Tree.
Continue until you have as many “trees” as you want to build your final tree, until you have this:

This is the latest in my Simple to Simply Stunning Card Series, Don’t you just love fall. Usually I don’t think of Mint Macaron as a fall color, but it does work with this design.
This was also fun as I used clear powder to emboss inked images an interesting a fun technique to add special touches to your designs.

This technique of using packing tape over the DSP made this card a little special. It was not too difficult to do and I am pleased with the result. This could be done with dies and with word dies as well. The cards are very cheery and festive. The Embossed white layer adds so much to the texture of the card. I am very pleased with the outcome of this one.

Don’t you just love black and white? This simple card is really a simple design where the Designer Series Paper makes the card. Who would have guessed it came from a Halloween themed kit.
