Light up 3d Christmas tree

Good evening 

I made this card today using Tonic winter spruce die set and the Poinsetta vine strip die set. 

I've not many dies from tonic but I loved the look of these dies.  They also come with bubble fronts in the shape of the actual tree so you can create shaker cards for them.  You can buy them here:

I cut about 6 different pieces of the tree die, folded in the middle then stuck them back to back of each other to create the 3d tree.  The aperture was die cut using a tattered lace die. 

To make the actual card you get 2 pieces of A4 card bases in the colour you want. Score them both in the middle.  Cut the aperture out on the one piece of card.  On that one score as a gatefold too.  The gatefold card is scored valley on each side and the middle scored mountain.  The other piece of card scored valley then stick them together .  Then decorate as required. 

The white piece of card with the aperture was distressed with blue skies oxide ink.  

The card stock and foiled cardstock is from create and craft core collection.  You can see the varieties here:

The embossed baubles was also distressed then tied together with a ribbon. 

The snowflakes, poinsetta and the presents are all from the tonic sets. 

At night put a battery operated tea Light candle in it to light it up  

Thanks so much for stopping on by

Have a lovely weekend
