So this one was inspired by a card I saw in the November issue of CardMaker magazine. I didn't have any of the supplies listed so I decided to create my own and this is the end result.
The background papers are from the DCWV Christmas stack.
The frame (3.5 x 4.5) was created in MS Word by creating four different textboxes and formatting the text in the directions needed in order to create the frame. Once sized and placed the way I wanted I printed onto my cardstock, measured, and cut to create the frame itself.
The Christmas tree was cut from Christmas Cheer at 3 3/4 inches. I cut two so that I could create a base and then pop dot for a dimensional effect.
All edges were inked using Colorbox in Chestnut Roan.
