Challenge me a Christmas Card with Tristan Dawes

Welcome to "Challenge me a Christmas Card" for 2019! I have asked cardmaking friends to join me in the lead up to Christmas by challenging me to make a card using a specific style, theme, technique or product.



My guest for today is Tristan Dawes of Tinstar Designs. Tristan has challenged me to make a card with trees.

You can check out her take on the challenge HERE

Here's what I came up with:


I used the Boddington tree border die from Poppy Stamps, and I cut it from 4 different glitter cardstocks from Simon Says Stamp. I used the inlaid die cut technique to fit all of the different colours into the spaces at random. I added the white panel to a matte gold card base, added some strips of the bronze glitter cardstock to the top and bottom, and added a gold embosssed sentiment from Simon Says Stamp.


 Thanks for visiting :)
