STEP1: Emboss Background & Die Cut Tree
Start by embossing the thick white cardstock using the Dotted Circles 3D Embossing Folder. Position the center of the circles in the upper middle of your card. Next, die-cut the larger tree from the Festive Glimmer Paper and create dimension by strategically applying dimensionals. I cut the mini dimensional in half and then cut that piece in half again. The Pick Your Tool comes in handy for precise placement.
STEP2: Stamp & Cut Banner
Use Garden Green ink to stamp the greeting and then die-cut it to create a banner. To save ribbon, cut 1-1/2" strips. Adhere one end of the ribbon behind the banner using a glue dot before threading it through the hole. Repeat the same on the other side. Use the glue dots to secure the banner to the embossed white layer. Wrap the ribbon around the back and secure it with a glue dot.
STEP3: Layer Front of Card
Add the white cardstock on top of the Garden Green layer, then adhere it to the front of the card.
STEP4: Inside Card
Create a simple, white layer to be placed inside the card. This layer will serve as a canvas for stamping a thoughtful sentiment and crafting a personalized greeting for the recipient. You can also enhance it with additional decorative elements to make it even more special.
