I dug out the DCWV Christmas Cardmaking Pad for the papers and the sentiment and after covering the front panel with spotty paper, I simply matted a strip of stripey paper across some gold mirri card as 'faux ribbon' before adding the greeting.
The tree is a basic triangle cut from a panel of gold mirri card, embossed with the Cuttlebug Snowflake folder and that is mounted onto green pearlescent paper from the DCWV pad, with foam pads.
I used a couple of small offcuts of paper to create some ribbon tails which hang below the holly embellishment which I coloured with permanent markers.
This card is also an entry for the Christmas Challenge at Magical Crafts forum, where Hazel selected the theme of Red, Gold and Green.

A lovely card.
Hey Max, How's tricks? You have some beautiful makes since my last visit :) I adore this card - love the Chrimbo dots! Kim
Lovely card Max. Especially liked the embossed Christmas tree done with cuttlebug. Might give that a try. The holly with the "tails" is very unusual and effective as well. I must admit I'm hopeful coming up with designs.
