Christmas card featuring a die cut tree embellished with silver foil, decorative paper and a small font greeting

 Another card created from pieces left on my desk while I creating this card for my sample for the Christmas Card Kits I put together in the last few days.  

I started with a dark maroon card with lots of linear texture.  I took a 4" square of striped decorative paper and tore it into two pieces.  I glued one to the top and the other to the bottom of my card leaving an even border.  The little tree was embellished with triangle of thin foil (chocolate bar) on the back and burnished on the back which allowed the foil to fill in the openings on the front.  Really cool!!  I punched a little star from silver foil carstock add adhered it on the top.  I mounted the tree to my card with 3D foam tape.  The little colour printed font greeting was mounted with glue.  

I am gaining on the cards I will need for Christmas so this one is headed for my stash as well.
