I always find it hard to keep up with the Holiday Blitz tutorials, but thanks to Judy picking this one for today's TLC that's one under my belt.
A2 green base, matted with red and then Aspen Frost.
I couldn't find a double-sided paper I liked for my tree, so I thought if I embossed and sanded some Core-dinations, that would give me enough contrast. I'm happy with how it turned out, though I expect paper would be easier to fold! It's embossed with Textiles, and I added gold Stickles along the edges, and a gold star with a tiny red star gem. Sentiment is Penny Black, sponged with Antique Linen and Tea Dye, stamped with a flourish using Avocado Liquid Pearls, cut with Labels 8 and with brads to finish it off.

Ooh! I love the texture on your tree! I agree - my Christmas tree was easier to fold because it was paper -- the fall tree was thicker and harder to do
This is super pretty, Sabrina!

I, too, like the texture you got with your Core-dinations paper...I have some of that and will need to try it, although I'm sure it was tough to fold. Such pretty, festive dp in the bg, too, Sabrina. Pretty holiday card!
