Christmas Sentiment Tree Card

Hello! I've got a fun idea of creating a holiday tree full of Christmas sentiment strips! Emily Moore Designs generously created three sheets of Christmas Sayings (FREE DOWNLOADABLE) sentiments and made them into free downloads for friends to use. It also coordinates with her Card Sentiment Dies :) Thank You, Emily!! 

The same day that I downloaded them, I went out for a Chinese lunch with hubby, and guess what was my fortune cookie message ("You will soon receive an (un)usual gift freely given. Accept!")...LOL!! It's a sign! 

This is the card I created...what do you think? I loved how it turned out :) 

After all the sentiments were die-cut into strips and squares from her Card Sentiment Dies, gather up the slimline card base in white cardstock and the front card panel cut to fit the base. How? Just trim the purple and white speckle patterned paper from the A2 Card Base Paper Pack to 4.25 x 8.5-inch. Adhere with the E-Z Dot® Repositionable adhesive. I love using this adhesive - it's forgiving. Just peel the panel off and reposition!

Create a long triangle template from copy paper to fit the card, and adhere it with the E-Z Dot® Repositionable to the pink/purple marble patterned paper from the A2 Card Base Paper Pack. Use a paper trimmer to cut the triangle shape out because I can't cut a straight line! LOL! With the same adhesive, center the triangle on the card front.

Using the cut triangle as the base, add the sentiment strips in the desired design and secure with the E-Z Dot® Repositionable.

Add the last touches of gems with the Adhesive Dots Micro and foil the 3D Foam Stars with the silver sheet from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets in Celebrate. Remove the liner place the foil (color side facing you) and rub to transfer the color to the stars. Reapply the foil in missed areas.

And it's done! I hope you take advantage of Emily's generous gift, the Christmas Sayings (FREE DOWNLOADABLE) sentiments, and share with her your creation! Here's to a wonderful holiday season!

Thanks for stopping by!
