When I saw the fun tree patterned wrap, I knew I needed to make a tree shape, so here it it! I decided to make a vintage looking tree and used several K&Company patterns on the base, then faux stitched around them all. The wisemen were watercolored and then coated with glitter. and stickles to create more a blurred image.
I used a large ornament as my guide and traced it to get the shape. The hardest part was sizing all the paper scraps for the front but I got it all worked out! The card is held together by an eyelet underneath the star at the top and that allows the card to swivel open to see the inside. Card measures 8.5 by 5.5 inches.
Hope you like it! Thanks for taking a peek! Enjoy your day!

angie, it's good to see you! Since this is the time of year when kids try to go see parents, I hope your Dad is doing well. I love your tree especially all the papers and stitching. This is so colorful and so whimsical, I think it's great.
