Most of my Christmas cards this year and going to be simple and quite flat so they can go 2nd class post so when I saw this little 'Freebie' Christmas Tree die on a craft magazine I thought it would be nice to use on one of my cards.
The card it only 5 x 5 so the Mexican Tile die fitted nicely, just used a back mat behind the die, cut out my Christmas tree in glitter card and put on a black mat, added a few red pearls and that was my card finished...very quick and simple....

Lovely card Anne - really effective. Think you might have to give up the pearls (unless they are very flat!) as cards don't normally go through the posting slot with them on.......worth checking.
