After all the finalists were notified about the Artisan Award, we decided to have a card swap at convention.  If you've participated in a swap before, you know there is always a certain amount of anxiety involved.  Is my card good enough?  Will people like it?  Well, imagine having to swap with Artisan finalists! 

I decided to re-create my tree card with current Stampin' Up product for the swap.  So, I made 25 of these babies!  (19 for the finalists and a few for Shelli and the team from SU)  I actually liked the way this one turned out better than the one I submitted for the contest.

And here is some exciting news…..I created a video to show you how I made it!  I am hoping that I'll be able to do more videos now that the kids are in school.   I'll be giving away the card that I created in the video to one lucky viewer.  Simply leave a comment here, on YouTube, or on my Facebook page.  One person will be selected at random on August 31st to receive the card.

    This Christmas Tree card is fabulous….just wonderful and I have the Peppermint Stick embossing powder that will make the peppermint candies really smell gorgeous if I create one similar to yours! Thank you for sharing with us and for the grand video!!!

    This is such a cute card and a great video tutorial. I don’t have the pennants die. Could you give me the measurements and I might be able to make it on the cricut.
    thanks so much.

  4. What a great card! I found you via Kim Score and am looking forward to following you more. You do great work!

  5. Melissa-
    Thanks so much for sharing how to make this card! I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE it!
    I re-created it but am not sure how to send you a picture.
    I didn’t have the Peppermint Candy stamp so I substituted one of the new Brushed Bronze buttons and a bow made from Cherry Cobbler Bakers Twine. I then made some Champagne Shimmer mist and sprayed the front of the card so it was sparkly. Even though mine is different- it’s still cute!
    I’m a SU Demo as well (I found your video on Stampin’ Connection). Thanks for sharing!
