Christmas Tree Shaped Card

This week's twist for Twisted Thursday, over at The Outlawz, is to have something with wings. I chose this sweet little Christmas Angel,  from our sponsor, Ppinkey Dolls.
I have a brand new Scan n Cut, by Brother, that I used to design a Christmas tree card. I am very pleased with how it turned out. I did two trees that I created and overlapped them. Then, I cut a single one using different paper for the front. I edged that with Distress Inkes and added some Stickles. The image is popped up with foam for dimension.

  1. Jean, I love how you made a tree-shaped card for this! It's the perfect background for the image! You've colored the little angel beautifully (as always!), and the distressing on the card front is lovely. The effect of it all is just gorgeous!

    1. Janet, you are just so encouraging. Thank you. I do love that machine. I'm still learning though. I think I can just send you the one I designed and you can use it on your machine. Maybe? We'll see :)

  4. Fantastic card Jean. What kind of machine did you get? I have an Explore Air from Cricut and I love doing cuts on it. They are so precise and you can choose your size for your particular project. Also if you don't have any Sentiment or image you can make anything with uploads and/or free hand drawing. Saw in your blog you like to Zentangle, just purchased an Adult Coloring Book which reminds me of Zentangle, and in fact I just used one for this months Progressive challenge.

    1. Thank you, Sue. I got the Scan n Cut. I really didn't know which machine to buy but there was a special on this one, so I got it. I think they all do similar things. I am actually certified to teach Zentangle, which I do, and certified to teach Copics. I love them both :) I also have many coloring books and love to color all the time too. Enjoy yours.
