Itty Bitty Christmas Tree

I really like this fun card.  It was fast and easy and didn't have to be perfectly placed.  A little unbalance makes it more creative.


 Recipe:
Very Vanilla - 4 1/4" x 11", scored and folded at 5 1/2"
Cherry Cobbler - 4" x 5 1/4" - embossed with Subtles 3D embossing folder
Very Vanilla - enough to stamp all the sentiments
Early Espresso - 1/8" x 5" (apx.) for tree trunk
5/8" Burlap Ribbon - 2 inches then trimmed to make a "tree planter"
3/16" Braided Linen Trim - tied into a bow 

 Stamp selected sentiments from Itty Bitty Christmas.  Cut into strips and then trim to different lengths to shape into a tree.

Think how pretty this would be using Mossy Meadow instead of the Cherry Cobbler, or mixing them together!

 Thank you for looking in today!  It's almost Friday!

Please ignore that my stamping inside was a bit crooked... I was out of my stamping element (aka I was standing instead of sitting!).

    Man, so many wonderful ideas. This is so fun and a fresh look at just using strips of DSP by using the sentiments. I will be CASEing this for sure!

    Thanks Chris. Actually, there's no DSP on this one, just Very Vanilla with the sentiments stamped and trimmed. I bet you could do it with DSP though if you have one that has words or just designs. That would work too.
