Slimline Christmas Tree

I love Christmas! It's just filled with magic! Everywhere you look there's something new to see! What I love most are the unexpected surprises.. a decoration in an unexpected place, a package with a special bow or a card in some unexpected colors.

 

My card started with the Waffle Flower Slimline Christmas Tree. I love color and keeping the cover in plain white just didn't appeal to me so I cut a slightly larger piece of white card stock and applied double sided adhesive to it and started adding colorful cardstock stripes at a slight angle.

The Skinny Stripes die cut made it easy to cut a bunch of strips at one time. You can actually cut 7 strips at a time and the set includes both 4.25 and 5.5" length strips.

When then panel was assembled I cut it with the slimline Christmas Tree die. I inserted solid green triangles to create a tree, and a bright yellow star.

A sprinkle of white snowflakes adds a little contrast along with the sentiment from Holiday Sentiments that's die cut with a stitched rectangle that's also part of the slimline die set.

If you love a slimline too you might want to check out the Die Cut Diva's Challenge where they're looking for slimline cards!
