Hello Lovelies! This is one of this cards that becomes more special in person. The Fresh Air Holiday Tree is a layered stamp set that lets you build your own Christmas Tree.
I decided to go off the grid with a blue and gray tree, but you could always try more traditional colors. The garland and star is embossed in a red glitter embossing powder and adorned with red rhinestones.
Here are the key supplies used in this card:
