Green Christmas Tree If Easl KitCompleted by Peggy Stogdill

Printed on matte photo paper, then printed the backing paper onto the back of the base card and the insert sheets.

I cut out all the pieces and cut the centers out of the trees.

I colored the cut edges of all the large pieces with a Krylon 18K Gold marker. I used green metallic paper for the iris folding-actually, florist paper which is a perfect weight and holds a sharp fold, then added the extra tree with thin foam pads and the sentiment with thick foam pads.

The kit has a big assortment of decoupage items and I layered two of the bows at the top of the tree and some of the packages.

The backing paper will be great for lots of other Christmas uses as well.
