Hello there, I am over on the My Favorite Things YouTube channel today, sharing a quick and easy Christmas card that would be great to mass produce. I do plan on making a few of these. I am never big on mass producing, five is probably my limit these days, but this design works well.

I started off my card by die cutting the main base tree from the MFT Cool Christmas Trees Die-namics from five colours of MFT Cardstock - Sno Cone, Summer Splash, Tropical Teal, Grape Jelly and Grapesicle. I cut them all twice so that I could stack them two high for extra stability.
I took a white US A2 sized card base and scored lines in the front panel for some added interest with a scoring board and bone folder. Although these aren't very visible in the photos, in real-life they do add a nice touch! The two back trees were adhered to the card with MFT On-Point Precision Glue.
The trees at the front were adhered with thin foam tape. The sentiment from the MFT Itty Bitty Holiday Stamp Set was stamped on to MFT Black Licorice Cardstock using Versamark ink. I applied white embossing powder and heat set. It was cut into a strip using the MFT Itty Bitty Strips Die-namics and adhered to the card with thin foam tape. To finish off, I added a few silver gems.

I think this design would work well with lots of different colour combinations, but I really like the more modern feel of these colours! Thank you so much for stopping by, I will be back later with another post but in the meantime, I hope you have a great day!
Absolutely love this card - so pretty! Love the layout, the different heights, the colours and the little gems. You know my address ha ha!! Great video too xx
