Festive Trees.

I had a rush job

 (well Ok I knew about it back in January when July was ages away!)

which needed to be finished and delivered by this weekend

so my entry with the girls in 

The Christmas Card Club is a wee bit late.

The latest theme was set by Granmargaret

'Christmas Trees'

I have resorted to the LOTV Art pad 

Set 14 'Festive Foilage' again  and made

another 3 cards up.

(I felt a bit miserly only putting one late one in)

Th first card uses a new shape 

'Corner Flip  Fold Card'

which I found several tutorials for on You Tube

and adapted to make my own  style.

I used a green card blank and cut the fold

using my Fiskars trimmer.

Cut and layered up using red and white card stock.

Gold christmas sticker from stash.

 2nd card was made using 3 separate  die cuts 

which I then hinged together.

I have called this a 'Die cut Fun Fold.'

Die used is Xcut Rectangle Parenthesis.

I used the next size down to cut the image and create

the side panels with the next size down again on the sides

which you can see a bit clearer in the picture below.

Gold sentiment stickers from stash.

3rd card uses the shape 

'Zig Zag Double Fold'

I used a green card blank to make the card base shape.

I used read card stock to cut the layered panels.

The celtic stickers  were in my stash.

The sheet they were on just said Goldlabel - 617 Layers

so I don't know who made them. 

Here is the card opened up to reveal the last tree.
