I packed a few challenges in on this card!
The tree is recycled from a Christmas card and the buttons are attached with Diamond Glaze then actually sewed right on the card. Sponging is done on the tree and on panel edges, the brown card base is actually white with color sponged on. 1/16” holes were punched for the cross stitches and embroidery thread for stitching and holding the buttons. Half circles for the tabs. Polished stone for the blue panel. Distressing on the tree edge. Ribbon is tired first then taped to the back. Freehand border around the tree. Wrapping paper for the checks.

Very nice card Roxi! Like everything about it, especially the circle tabs on top and side. I need to try that sometime. I like how it looks. All your little details make for a fabulous card.
