TLC403 ~ Folded Christmas Tree ~ (11/12/12)

I hope you had a wonderful weekend!
Sending love and prayers to those still struggling from Hurricane Sandy and Athena and also THANKS to all our Veterans!

I am so excited about the Holiday Blitz Tutorials that are being shared each day in the Resources section. There are SO many fun ones that we will probably be doing a lot of them in my Technique Challenges up to the holidays!

The challenge I chose for today is so much fun -- it looked so hard when I saw Beate's sample and even when I glanced at her amazing tutorial , but it is SO EASY! You have to try these. It took like two minutes to make the tree.

So today's challenge is FOLDED CHRISTMAS TREE.

My sample: Bright and Beautiful Christmas

Not ready for Christmas or don't want to make a holiday or winter card?
How about a tree for fall - or another season?
My second sample: You're A Hoot

Have fun with this! I know I will be making a lot of these trees: Cards, place cards for Christmas dinner, tags for gifts, lots of stuff!

Thanks for the inspiration, Beate!

:D, I was hoping that maybe it would be something from the Holiday Blitz for the TLC. I'll be along whenever I get the housework and shopping done. Thanks, Judy.

OOO!!! It's FANCY and not a bunch of measuring... I LOVE "winging" it!!!! I'll be playing today FOR SURE!!!! YAY ME!!! :mrgreen:

Hey Judy.............haven't made these since last year but Beate's tutorial is SOOO much simplier then getting out the compass and trying to fold on the lines !! ha ha
Busy morning but will be back to play later..........

Cute and looks easy!
Thanks for a great Christmas tutorial.
I hope to try it out sometime today!

Judy, you are so correct.....cute and EASY! Part of the "easy" might be Beate's excellent instructions. : ) Love the look of the trees and the chance to use them in a variety of styles. I went sort of elegant. Thanks, Judy & Beate!

Thanks for sharing Beate's fun tutorial today, Judy! Something to share with my stamp club this week : ) I even followed pretty closely Beate's sketch she used in her tutorial:

Merry Christmas Tree

Thanks Judy, for this fun tree and tutorial from Beate - I finished the whole card and then realized my trees are upside down in my dsp! I guess it's Monday!

I don't know why this was such a challenge for me! But now I have four trees with Stickles drying and I'll be back with a card or two later on. Thanks for the cute tree technique!

Fabulous challenge. Here is my project.

Oh my gosh Judy....love this challenge. I have wanted to try this tree forever. Ok give me a day or too and I am in....lol

I love this little folded Christmas Tree! I didn't have double-sided paper, so I stuck 2 papers together and cut the circle and it worked great. Here's my card: Merry Merry by moonoodie - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers

Here is my SNOW BURST FOLDED CHRISTMAS TREE.

I saw this technique last year and wanted to give it a try but never did. So I had fun, thanks for the challenge!

Here's my entry: TLC403 Folded Christmas Tree

I'm on a tree kick lately! TFL

So much easier than I thought it would be! Folded Tree

This challenge was so fun! These trees are fun and easy. Beate, thanks for posting the tutorial. I watched it twice. I didn't have a large circle punch or nestiblity, so I used a cd, traced around it, and cut it out.

Here's my Merry Christmas Tree . Enjoy.

Here is my FROSTY'S FOLDED CHRISTMAS TREE.

I created a Tri-Shutter card (my first one!) and the back panel features one of these adorable trees! Once I figured out the last fold (which I had to be tired because I watched the video 4 times) ... I was fine - LOL! Thanks for looking :)

Well this was fun. Thanks to both of you.
