Peace on Earth

In an 8x10 frame. A little Christmas art that is making me really happy to look at! I love it! I used a tree cut out from Paper Crafters Library's special Christmas projects - Not on their regular site, I don't think, but a special email sent out to people who requested it, it's a free thing they do every year with about 12 weeks worth of Christmas fun!

Need: Tree (I used Old Olive)
Scrap papers in just about any colours you want!
1" punch
3/4" punch
1/2" punch
buttons and embellishments
glue dots
stampin' dimensionals

To show some dimension. Basically, you punch out circles and start layering them up! No rhyme or reason, just keep doing it until you like the look!
For the sentiment, I considered stamping something, but I had some chipboard Christmas phrases (peace, joy, love, believe), so I chose one and heat embossed with Cherry Cobbler powder.
I LOVE IT! So fun, cute, and happy!

Easy Card!

How to make this card, so that all the images line up perfectly on the layers...
Use a normal sized card (5.5x4.25). Cut white card stock to 4.75x3.5 and 4x2.75
Line up the card stock neatly, use a small amount of adhesive if desired
Stamp over all three layers

More stamping!
Cut coloured cardstock to 4.25x3 and 5x3.75, remove the layers and adhere the coloured paper, and then place everything back together.

Add sentiment and embellish as desired. A beautiful card, and really easy to make!
