Thanks for the push to try something completely different! Have a stack of 12x12 gelli prints, and this seems to be a great use for them!

Lighter paper does make the folding a bit easier. And 12 x12 is easier than 6 x 6. Mine isn't perfect either! Scrapbook paper is fun because of all the different designs and colors and we all have a ton of it- lol.

I think yours is cute-- especially with the button star on top!

I chose the traditional color, green for my tree. The 12 x 12 paper was heavyweight, with a glossy pattern on the paper. I had to use my bone folder since it was so thick. It took awhile to fold, but I like the result. Here's my tree:
