I started with a Blackberry Bliss card base then overlaid it with Brushed Gold; this angled layout has been quite popular lately in papercrafting circles! I added a banner of Blackberry Bliss then one of that beautiful Gold Striped Vellum!
Next I die cut a circle of the snowflake paper from the Trim The Tree DSP Paper Stack and stamped it with "joy".
I stamped the solid tree from the set in Blackberry Bliss then overstamped it with the tinsel in Encore Gold ink. (Let it dry awhile or it will smear). Next I punched it out with the Tree Punch and adhered it to the circle background, topping it with a Gold Glimmer star! Scatter a few Frosted Sequin snowflakes around and done!
