The bough, tree and sentiment are all Outlines Rubber Stamps. The sentiment says "Christmas Wishes" This was labor intense as it required a lot of cutting. First, I gold embossed the tree in Mellow Moss, then burgundy, then saffron. Cut the tree out and then started cutting portions of the star design - the first layer is burgundy; the little center is saffron. A rhinestone was placed in the center of each star. The sentiment was attached to mimic the tree trunk - the moss ribbon was heat set to crinkle it. The tree and sentiment are popped up on dimensionals! I hope it shows up ok -- I really love it!

I love this card. I have the ornament stamps from Outlines and I know how labor intensive these kinds of cards are, but they are so pretty and worth the time.
