For the final week of my Twelve Weeks of Christmas, I have a DIY card that uses a Paper Folded Christmas Tree as the focal point. This card is not only easy, but you can make two cards at once. All you need to create the focal point is a circle. I used the second largest circle from the Deckled Circle Dies. But you can use another circle die, trace a small bowl, a large cup, or use a compass. Afterwards, fussy cut the circle, fold it and cut in half and you are ready to start!

Folded Christmas Tree Card Design
Basic White Thick card stock was used for the card base. I used the Take a Bow 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper to create a paper folded Christmas tree, as well as, layers for my card and envelope. Next, I cut layers from Basic White card stock using the Perennial Postage Dies. I dry embossed the Basic White layer using the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder. I, then, adhered my paper folded Christmas tree to the embossed layer with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside of my card, I repeated the layers I had used on the front of the card.
