Christmas 2013 DIY Crafts- Part 1

It's been a long while since my last post but Christmas is always the time for DIY crafts! For the next couple of weeks, I am hoping to post at least one DIY project everyday.  Today's craft is a 3-D Christmas tree card.

This is the end product:

















MATERIALS USED:
1) Christmas sticker pack from Winners (or other sheets of stickers with a design)

2) Pre-cut felt Christmas trees from Wal-Mart
3) Red ribbon from Michaels

4) A stack of plain white cards ( can be bought from Michaels, Walmart, Winners, etc)


HOW TO MAKE IT:
Step 1: 
- take two felt trees and fold them in half
- take one side of each of the trees and glue them together (you should have three pointy ends and one flat side)
-glue the flat side down on the front of a white card

Step 2:
- cut about seven inches of the red ribbon and fold it into a small bow
- trim the ends to even the bow out
-






- glue the red ribbon directly above the tree on the card

Step 3: 
- select a sheet of patterned stickers and cut out a pentagon shape with the longest end measured at one inch (this is to form the pot for the tree) 
- glue the pentagon directly under the tree on the card, with the longer end facing upwards
