Lovely As a Tree

Today's card combines the Splitcoast Stampers(SCS) Wednesday Sketch Challenge and Tuesdays SCS Color Challenge - Neutral with a Pop! These two challenges worked perfectly together.

I chose the always and forever popular Lovely As a Tree stamp set. For my Neutral with a Pop! colors I chose Very Vanilla, Kraft, & Old Olive. The patterned paper is from the Merry Moments Designer Series.

Instructions:

• The card base is a standard 5 1/2"x 8 1/2" piece of Very Vanilla card stock scored at 4 1/4".
• The tree is stamped on a 3 1/4"X 4 1/2" piece of Very Vanilla card stock and layered on top of a 3 3/8"x 4 5/8" piece of Kraft card stock. I used the Stamp-a-ma-Jig to center the tree. I use the Stamp-a-ma-jig for most of my cards ~ an easy and indispensable tool.
• Using the Mat Pack and the Paper Piercing Tool I pierced opposite corners.
• The cross panel is a 2 1/4"x 4 1/4" piece of Kraft card stock with a 2 1/8"x 4 1/4" piece of Merry Moments Designer Series paper.
• After securing the cross panel, I added the stamped image on top using Stampin' Dimensionals.
• The triangles were created using the 1 3/8" Square punch to punch a square of Merry Moments paper out and layered on top of a 1 1/2" square of Kraft paper. I then cut down the center of the square from point to point and attached the triangles to either sides using Sticky Strip.
• Sentiment to be determined later.
