Tonight I am joining some fellow demonstrators on a Christmas blog hop. We aim to bring you Christmas inspiration every Monday evening right through to Mid December!
You may have found me via Claire Daly's blog. If not that's ok! Hi and welcome!
For my card today I made some origami trees out of the Tidings of Christmas DSP. The Tidings of Christmas DSP is part of the 15% off DSP sale that is available till August 2nd in case you want to stock up on your DSP stash!
The trees are made from 3 squares, 2 1/4", 1 3/4" and 1 1/4" and you fold each square in half on the diagonal and them fold one triangle down to the middle and repeat for all three squares. You then stack the 3 now triangles to create the tree shape. I added a gold foil star (from give it a whirl dies) and a soft suede tree trunk to help create the illusion of a tree. The sentiment for both the card front (and inside the card is from Inspired Thoughts stamp set).

How wonderful! The origami trees look amazing- such a great idea, and a fabulous way to show off both sides of the DSP.

Very cute Christmas tree Ros. I love how the origami fold shows both patterns of the DSP. The font used for the sentiment blends well with the design of your card.
