This is my entry for the SCS Clean and Simple Challenge CAS301 of add a tree(s) to your card. I have three trees on my card. Please see this link for the details on the Challenge----> CAS301 - Lovely as a Tree by ohmypaper! at Splitcoaststampers
The Deer Snowflake Scene is a gorgeous die by Cottage Cutz CCE-169 which I purchased at a Craft Show in August. Isn't it a beautiful?
The dot embossing is a RETIRED Cuttlebug folder - Kars snowflakes which is very difficult to find but there are two embossing folders that I know of that you can substitute - just check out my blog link at the end of this write-up for the information.
I used Tombow Mono Multi glue to attach the diecut Deer Snowflake scene to the dry embossed cardstock and cleaned up any little bits of glue that seeped out using a Xyron Adhesive remover.
The aqua glitter cardstock was diecut using a My Favorite Things Joy Photo Card Frame die. I attached the scene to my white cardstock base and trimmed the edges to 1/16" using my Perfect Layers Tools - apart from the LHS of the card which is where the card fold is.
The smallest aqua glitter cardstock snowflake on the scene is from the Poppystamps Christmas Baubles die set (which includes 2 snowflakes - I used the smallest snowflake from the set) and the largest snowflake is from the My Favorite Things Snowflakes Trio set (I used the smallest snowflake in the set). I added aqua rhinestones to the snowflake centres.
The card is very flat and will be going overseas to one of my cardmaking buddies.

Wow! This is stunning! The deer and snowflakes are one die? Amazing. I love how you layered them over the snowflake embossing too. Pure white and blue are my favourite colour combo for Christmas cards.
