Happy Holidays
>> Tuesday, December 17, 2019
Hi Everyone,
In my attempt to make quick and easy cards, and make ones that I haven't made a thousand times before, I came across this doily tree in one of my notebooks. One of those ideas I jotted down when doilies on cards were all the rage. Well, for me it's what's old is new again, so I grabbed my doily stash and gave it a go.
After folding the tree I attached it to a simple snowflake embossed background, embellishing the flakes using the same pearls from the gem and pearl "garland" on the tree.
I used a couple of circle punches for the Happy Holidays Greeting and it was done.
I did attempt to take photos along the way, if you wanted to try for yourself.
I just can't get the pictures to turn 1/4, so that they are right side up. I thought about not including them, but if you tilt your head to the left, they may still be helpful ;) .
It really is just a folding back and forth until you run out of doily :)
May everything be right side up for you this Christmas season!
Happy Holidays!

Very cool, Karin. That tree is totally fabulous and the gems really make even better. Great idea and I just may try it! Beautiful card. Hugz
Karin, your tree is so cute! The red gems really make it stand out. This is super cute. & such a good way to use doilies!
I love your doily tree Karin! Maybe you'll start a 2nd wave of all things doily? Your instructions make it look simple and you did a great job trimming it too!
This is wonderful, Karin! I have a bunch of those paper doilies & this is a great way to use them. And I love that it's so easy.
So cute, I love your doily Christmas tree, what a brilliant idea!
Beautiful embossed bg and love the red rhinestones!
