Hi Friends!
This week's new challenge at CRAFT Challenge Blog is a Christmas theme. The sponsor is Trimgym and I am using the Pink Christmas Paper Pack.
Please note: I use Silhouette Studio with a Silhouette Cameo. My instruction is exactly how I made my card. You can change design elements as you please and this will work on other brands of electronic cutters. My specific supply list is at the bottom including the links to the design files used.
Basic supplies electronic cutter
svg of a two layer christmas tree (I am using design #1800013 by Silhouette)
printer
glitter paper
A2 card base
green and pink cardstock
Christmas sentiment die (Mine is by Scrapbook.com)

InstructionBring in the Christmas tree design to the software for the cutting machine
Duplicate 2 times. Make 1 tree bigger than the other two.
Size the trees to fit with a 5.25 x 4 inch rectangle in landscape orientation where they slightly overlap.
Release compound path and separate all the trees.
Fill the inner layer of the trees with 3 different pink pattern papers.
Cut the filled layers of trees using the print and cut feature.
Cut the outer layers of the trees in different colors of green.
Cut the stars in yellow.
Cut a piece of blue glitter paper to be 4 x 5.25 inches. I used a frame die but a paper trimmer or cutting machine will do the trick.
Cut the sentiment out of light pink paper.
Cut the sentiment shadow out of vellum.
Glue the sentiment to the vellum shadow.
Glue the large tree to the center of the blue glitter background panel.
Using adhesive foam, adhere the other two smaller trees to the card panel.
Adhere the sentiment across the front of the trees.
Adhere the card panel to the card base.
Please Note: I am a big advocate of using supplies you already own but I understand that readers might be interested in specific products that they might not already own. This post contains product links so you can easily find any supplies and/or tools you may be interested in. As an affiliate, I may be compensated for a purchase made using my links. However, no additional cost is extended to you. The other links are just to help guide you in the right direction. I am not affiliated with all companies but I encourage you to shop small businesses as much as possible. I may even include eBay listings for products that are available there at the time this is posted. I only share product information of products I am familiar with and use in my own studio. Papers are just from my collection. I always grab from my scraps first and I don’t keep track of where they came from. Use what you have!
