Lace Christmas Tree

I am so lovin this folder!! A wonderful Cricut MB member sent it to me when I was unable to find it here *okie smiles and knows that person knows who they are*. There really are a lot of ways you can embellish this lovely tree! I made several versions to see what I liked. Of course the one I liked the most was the most work and there won't be many of those made *okie cracks up laughin*.

I used Cat Eye chalk inks to color the ones that are colored. The one on the left has Stickles added to some of the areas. I did cut the tree and then pop dot it for dimension. The one on the right also has been colored with Cat Eye chalk ink. I added some Stampedous holograpic stickers to a few areas for some bling. The middle card is an A6 size. I wanted to mat the tree with more printed paper showing so I went with the larger card. I think the dark colors contrast the tree nicely. I added some holly Stickles to the circles on the tree since it looked a little too plain on there.

  1. I used this CB folder for my cards last year and they turned out just gorgeous - right after I finished I found that someone (can't remember who - sorry) had made a Cricut cut file to match!! I'll see if I can find that file if you want it!

  5. Nice Job Okie!!!! I have admired this CB folder since it came out, but never bought one. I just couldn't figure out how I would make it stand out on a card. Thanks for the inspiration, now I must buy one.
