Welcome to Create with Connie and Mary’s Creatively Simple Challenge! Each month Mary and I will pick a theme for our simple cards. This month the theme is “Tis the Season” cards!

MERRIEST TREES

Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Cherry Cobbler cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- A 4 x 5-1/4 was stamped with the detail tree image in Soft Sea Foam Ink in the center of the panel.
- The 3-3/4 x 5 Basic White was cut with the largest Merriest Trees Die, the tree trunk stamped with Pecan Pie Ink, and adhered to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The trim and star were cut from More Dazzle Gold Paper and added across the tree branches and top of the tree.
- The greeting from Merriest Trees was stamped with VersaMark Ink on 1/2 x 2-1/2 Cherry Cobbler Cardstock and White Embossed. The ends were cut at an angle, then added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- A trio of red Iridescent Adhesive Backed Discs were added to the tree.

The deep red and light green really work well together, don’t they? Lots of sparkle, too! Check out Mary’s Creatively Simple card over on Create with Connie and Mary!
