After Christmas Pick Me Up

Let the clean up begin!  Or not.  This little card is for a friend that happens to be in town for the holidays.  The front is a dead Christmas tree and lots of wrapping on the floor   The tree is an Elizabeth Craft die, the card base is the SU Pop N Cuts base and the packages are a 1″ punch. 

To do the tissue paper, I punched some 1″ squares and wadded the paper up – and glued it down.  See the poor star nestled in the mess? 

When the card is opened out pops Karen Burniston’s Mug & Heart insert (which fits beautifully inside the SU Pop N Cuts base.)  I also used her Gift Card holder  and Banner & Borders framelits.  Use your imagination to see the Starbucks gift card inside the holder! 

The steam in the cup and the hearts on the front are Movers and Shapers dies and the center of the hearts is a Neutral Candy Dot. 

I only adhered the tag at the bottom so that the gift card is removal without tearing up the tag.  I printed all the sentiments in MDS2.
