Trimming the Tree

I love that Stampin' Up! gave us a Christmas Tree punch and what's even better is that it co-ordinates with a set of stamps called "Festival of Trees".

 

Here I stamped a tree in Lost Lagoon ink onto Lost Lagoon cardstock then used Craft White ink and White Embossing Powder to trim it!  I love heat embossing, such a lovely effect.  Once heated I punched out the tree with the Tree Punch.

 

If you purchase the Stamps and Punch together, you can save yourself a whopping 15% which is a great saving.

 

 

 

The Pear Pizzazz tree to the left is another image from the same set and the greeting is too.

 

I used my Texture Boutique machine to emboss the Pool Party layer with the large Polka Dots.

 

 

I used my Star Punch from the "Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack" and punched out a Silver Glimmer star to top the tree.

 

All in all a pretty easy card to using just one stamp set.
