Mini Tutorial Tuesday!

Good Morning!
Today I have a cute little card to share with you.  It's very easy to make and will use up your left over scraps of Designer Series Paper!
Supplies:
Card Stock:  Very Vanilla (5 1/2" x 8 1/2"), Cherry Cobbler ( 5 1/4" x 4"), Silver Glimmer Paper (for the Star)
DSP:  Scraps- whatever you have on hand is fine.
Embellishments:  Buttons, Ribbons, In-Color Dahlias, Pearl Basic Jewels, Linen Thread
Tools:  Big Shot, Lacy Brocade Embossing Folder, Holiday Collection Framelits (star), 1 1/4" Scallop Circle Punch, 3/4" Circle Punch, Stampin' Dimensionals, SNAIL, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Glue Dots, Paper Trimmer, Paper Snips, round wooden skewer

To begin, fold the Very Vanilla card stock in half to form the base.  Emboss the Cherry Cobbler card stock using the Big Shot and the Lacy Brocade Embossing Folder then layer onto the Very Vanilla using SNAIL.  

Next, you will need 16 scrap pieces of DSP.  All need to be 3/4" wide.  Here are the individual size measurements:

3 pieces that measure 3/4" x 1 1/4" (for tree base)

1 piece that measures 3/4" x 3 3/4"

1 piece that measures 3/4" x 3 1/2"

1 piece that measures 3/4" x 3 1/4"

1 piece that measures 3/4" x 3"

1 piece that measures 3/4" x 2 3/4"

1 piece that measures 3/4" x 2 1/2"

1 piece that measures 3/4" x 2 1/4"

1 piece that measures 3/4" x 2"

1 piece that measures 3/4" x 1 3/4"

1 piece that measures 3/4" x 1 1/2"

1 piece that measures 3/4" x 1 1/4"

1 piece that measures 3/4" x 1"

1 piece that measures 3/4" x 3/4"

Begin rolling each piece lengthwise around the round wooden skewer.  After you have all 16 pieces rolled, begin laying out your tree onto the Cherry Cobbler/Very Vanilla card base.  Once you have it arranged how you want it- using the Multipurpose Liquid Glue, glue each roll down individually (this helps keep the shape of the Tree).  Please note that you only need a very fine line of the glue to hold the roll down.

Using the Star shape from the Holiday Collection Framelits- cut out a Star from the Silver Glimmer Paper.  Attach 3 Stampin' Dimensionals to the back of the Star so that it is the same distance from the card base as the paper rolls.  Adhere just above the top paper roll.

Next,  I stamped the Merry Christmas and Snowflake images from the Mixed Medley Stamp Set.  Using a 3/4" Circle Punch, cut out the Merry Christmas.  Using the 1 1/4" Scallop Circle Punch, cut out the Snowflake image.  Layer together with a Stampin' Dimensional.  Make a bow with the Linen Thread and attach to the Snowflake image with a Glue Dot.  Adhere the Snowflake image to the tree with Stampin' Dimensionals.  Finish by embellishing as desired!  I used a combination of Buttons, In-Color Dahlias, and Pearl Basic Jewels.  

If you have any questions- please feel free to let me know!  I hope you enjoy!
