O’ Christmas Tree

I think this is my last Christmas themed project for the year and I decided to make it a fun one… so I made a Christmas ornament using the shaker tutorial I did last month (go HERE to see it).

As I am a guest designer at Doodle Pantry this month, I wanted to use one of their great new December releases – the Christmas tree from the Winter Critters digi set. Then just add a snow flake embossing folder, designer paper from Papertrey Ink, “snow”, and a ribbon between the layers and VOILA! It is ready to hang from the tree. What do you think?

BUT…just in case it wasn’t awesome enough, I made it into a gift card holder for my last Christmas gift card by adding a pocket to the back.
